What is the very best YA book or series written by a woman or POC or member of the LGBTQ+ community from 2000-the present?
This poll is from our Year of Diverse Polls. Please check this page out if you have questions about the narrowed focus.
I'm watching The Contrarian today (plus had some overdue freelance work) and a weird morning of pass-out caliber sleep (body actually catching up from the convention, I think). That means tomorrow is going to be a twofer. You'll get the last day of my Worldcon write ups as well as this poll going live. That means you have ONE more day to get up nominations and seconds. So you get a tiny extension on getting this poll your nominations and seconds, but this is absolutely the very last chance.
And this poll is absolutely going to need seconds. **Keanu Reeves voice: "Lots of seconds."** (And thirds...and fourths.) Remember, I no longer run quarterfinals and elimination rounds. I will at most run ONE semifinal round. So I will pick between 8-22 of the titles with the most "seconds."
Please go to the original post for rules, to check out what's there for seconding, and to drop your nomination. The poll will go live on Monday.
