Hello all! The ALA Youth Media Award announcements<https://www.ala.org/news/2025/09/american-library-association-announces-2026-youth-media-awards-public-announcement> are coming up on January 26th, which means now is the time to meet with your Mini Mock Printz groups, if you haven’t already. Our original email about that is below, and the Small Group Leader instructions are attached. As a reminder, OYAN wanted to provide this structure for you to do your own thing, but you can do that thing however you want! We would love to hear how you ran your Mini Mocks. Did you start a book group at a school? Did you force invite your Teen Library Council to read the books? Did you start a group chat? Did you read some of the books on your own and now you can’t stop talking to everybody about your favorite? I coordinated a little staff group that will be getting together this week to fiercely defend our faves over a beverage- Then we get to vote! You can vote too! Here’s the link to cast your ballot! https://bit.ly/26MiniPrintz
Bestest,

Hi everyone,
We’ve begun offering our Mock Printz workshop every other year, with our next hybrid event in January of 2027. Of course, we still love to celebrate incredible Young Adult books, so we’ve prepared some resources to encourage you to hold Mini Mock Printz events in your own community. This is your chance to explore some of the most talked-about and thought-provoking young adult books of the year — and to help decide which one you think deserves the 2026 Michael L. Printz Award<https://www.ala.org/yalsa/printz>.
Here’s how it works:
* You read all eight selected titles listed below...
* You’ll have until mid-January to read them all and then...
* Host your own Mock Printz book group! The attached document has further details, instructions, and a link to a voting form so we can choose our statewide winner and see how our pick stacks up against YALSA’s official Printz Award selection. If you are unable to hold your own book group, please feel free to join one nearby, or read on your own and vote.
* If you’re planning to participate, please email lindsey at creswell-library.org<mailto:lindsey at creswell-library.org> or lisae at tigard-or.gov<mailto:lisae at tigard-or.gov> to let us know! The Mock Printz is the most fun when teens are involved. Maybe you’d like to offer this as a library event? A staff book group? A winter gathering with bookish friends? A solo exploration of the best in teen lit? It all sounds good to us!
This year’s Mini Mock Printz titles:
* Song of a Blackbird by Maria Van Lieshout
* Death in the Jungle: Murder, Betrayal, and the Lost Dream of Jonestown by Candace Fleming
* The Corruption of Hollis Brown by K. Ancrum
* Banned Together: Our Fight for Reader’s Rights by Ashley Hope Pérez
* Sisters in the Wind by Angeline Boulley
* S)Kin by Ibi Zoboi
* Run Away With Me by Brian Selznick
* I Am the Swarm by Hayley Chewins
For the 2025 Mock Printz Award<https://www.alsc.ala.org/blog/2025-mock-yma-elections-results-page/#anchor-printz>, we gathered together and decided on Compound Fracture as our winner, with Brownstone and Everything We Never Had as Mock Printz Honor Titles.
Let’s celebrate great storytelling, critical thinking, and the joy of reading together. We can’t wait to see which book you’ll champion!

So, sorry Lindsey. I have not had the time I hoped to support the Mini Mock Printz, and I’ve left this email unanswered way too long. I totally trust Lorene’s assessment of the literary merits of the non-fiction vs. Hollis Brown, but I think folks will respond better to a list with more fiction options. I suggest dropping White Lies and adding Hollis, for no reason other than I want an excuse to read the Jonestown book, and I think teens will be interested too since they probably know next to nothing about it. We should make sure all off these books are Book Rave nominees! 😊 -L

That is an unusual amount of non-fiction for the Mock Printz. Maybe replace one of the longer ones with Corruption of Hollis Brown? Or not. I think it’s a good list and I know there’s a time crunch! -L

Sounds good!
So to confirm, our final list would be:
1. "Song of a Blackbird, by Maria Van Lieshout - (Historical Fiction, Graphic Novel)"
2. "Death in the Jungle: Murder, Betrayal, and the Lost Dream of Jonestown, by Candace Flemming - (Nonfiction/History, Novel)"
3. "White Lies: How the South Lost the Civil War, Then Rewrote the History, by Ann Bausum - (History/Nonfiction, Novel)"
4. Banned Together: Our Fight for Reader’s Rights, by Ashley Hope Pérez - (Anthology/Nonfiction, Novel)
5. Sisters in the Wind -- Indigenous author & characters. Mystery, thriller novel.
6. S)Kin -- Black Caribbean-American Immigrant author & characters. Paranormal, fantasy, novel in verse.
7. Run Away With Me -- LGBTQ+ author & characters. Romance, historical, mystery novel.
8. I Am the Swarm, by Hayley Chewins - (Realistic Fiction/Magical Realism, Novel in Verse)'
This might just be a historical fiction heavy year ---should we include both the historical nonfiction titles?

Thank you for all your work on this, Lindsey!
How about if, in addition to putting the 5 highlighted in green, we add the other 3 that were top vote earners? All of these 3 are fiction, which would be good to have more of on the list, and provide diverse representation and genres:
Sisters in the Wind -- Indigenous author & characters. Mystery, thriller novel.
Run Away With Me -- LGBTQ+ author & characters. Romance, historical, mystery novel.
S)Kin -- Black Caribbean-American Immigrant author & characters. Paranormal, fantasy, novel in verse.
What do you guys think?

Hi all!
Here is the breakdown based on voting!
Some of my thoughts/concerns: Should we go by star rating or take into account the top three ranking everyone did (I wanted to do the star ratings because I was worried we would not get enough votes.)? Is there enough diversity in all aspects of this list (i.e. representation as well as story)?
You will see I highlighted the titles with overlap.
Top 8 - Star Rating Vote:
* "Sisters in the Wind, by Angeline Boulley - (Thriller, Novel)"
* "Song of a Blackbird, by Maria Van Lieshout - (Historical Fiction, Graphic Novel)"
* "Death in the Jungle: Murder, Betrayal, and the Lost Dream of Jonestown, by Candace Flemming - (Nonfiction/History, Novel)"
* "White Lies: How the South Lost the Civil War, Then Rewrote the History, by Ann Bausum - (History/Nonfiction, Novel)"
* "Run Away with Me, by Brian Selznick - (Romance, Novel)"
* "(S)KIN, by Ibi Zoboi - (Paranormal/Fantasy, Novel in Verse)"
* "Under the Same Stars, by Libba Bray - (Historical Fiction, Novel)"
* "Banned Together: Our Fight for Reader’s Rights, by Ashley Hope Pérez - (Anthology/Nonfiction, Novel)"
Top 8 - 1st, 2nd, 3rd Contenders with Star Rating: (takes star rating and factors in voting for top 3)
* "Song of a Blackbird, by Maria Van Lieshout - (Historical Fiction, Graphic Novel)"
* "Death in the Jungle: Murder, Betrayal, and the Lost Dream of Jonestown, by Candace Flemming - (Nonfiction/History, Novel)"
* "White Lies: How the South Lost the Civil War, Then Rewrote the History, by Ann Bausum - (History/Nonfiction, Novel)"
* Under the Same Stars, by Libba Bray - (Historical Fiction, Novel)
* Banned Together: Our Fight for Reader’s Rights, by Ashley Hope Pérez - (Anthology/Nonfiction, Novel)
* Everything is Poison, by Joy McCullough - (Historical Fiction, Novel)
* Corruption of Hollis Brown, by KJ Ancrum - (Thriller/Paranormal, Novel)
* I Am the Swarm, by Hayley Chewins - (Realistic Fiction/Magical Realism, Novel in Verse)
I've attached the spreadsheet with the results. For those of you who have access to the OYAN Drive, this is in the Secretary Mock Printz Folder.
Any thoughts on how we should pick the last three titles? Go with one list? Pick one more and let them choose the last two? Other books on the list that didn't win a top star rating?
I'd like to figure this out ASAP in time for the OASL Fall conference.
Thanks!

I like the rating scale and that whole section looks great! I could see where the last question’s responses may be difficult to interpret since we’re leaving it up to the teens to type the first, second, third portion and not just list titles.
I wonder if it makes sense to make each 1st, 2nd, 3rd title entry its own question where we ask something like: Enter your first choice title here: ______________
Enter your second choice title here:
Enter your third choice title here:
And they just do a short text answer entry?
Or, if there’s a way to do a ranking with a drop-down menu where they can answer the same question, but choose from a drop-down list of the titles on the list? So, something like,
Select your first choice:
Select your second choice
Select your third choice:
If you’d like to share the doc and editing rights with me, I can make a copy, mock something up, and reshare out.
Thanks, Lindsey!

Hi all,
During our executive board meeting on Friday, we discussed creating a Google Form to help us narrow down the Mini Mock Printz list. I've drafted a one-page form for voting and would appreciate your feedback.
In the meeting, we considered limiting the rating options, but I was concerned we might not gather enough data. To address this, the form includes two methods for capturing feedback: a 1-5 star rating for each book and an option at the end for participants to rank their top three titles.
Please take a look and let me know your thoughts. I'm hoping to send this out as soon as possible, ideally today, but I wanted to get your input first. I'm also looping in Vanessa because she came up with the idea of how the form should work and the point system.
Thanks,
Lindsey

Hi all,
We have a solid list so far! I think we could still add more titles, but it might also be a good time to start gathering feedback. I’ll be out of the office all next week, so I won’t be able to move things forward beyond reading. Would someone else be willing to take the lead on this in the meantime?
Thanks,

Hi All!
How wonderful that OYAN is looking at doing a Mock Printz this year! I am so happy about this! Creating a reading list soon would be good so that folks will have plenty of time to read them all.
So far, I have read 16 new YA books of 2025. And, as a group, our Brookings teen book club has read five 2025 YA books. Here is a list of the 2025 YA books that I / we have read and rated as Outstanding, Good, or So-so.
OUTSTANDING 😃 2025 YA Books That I/We Have Read:
Banned Together: Our Fight for Readers' Rights 😃
by Ashley Hope Perez, editor; published March 3, 2025; 5 starred reviews
YA Anthology of short stories and essays by various YA authors whose works have been challenged or banned
Outstanding collection of essays, reminiscences, and short stories relating to book banning written by various contributing authors. It's remarkable to have an anthology of this sort where ALL of the pieces are well written. Sometimes frightening, sometimes hopeful, all with heart. Beautifully and cohesively assembled by Perez into an artful and impactful tribute to the need to preserve intellectual freedom.
A Dangerous Idea: The Scopes Trial, the Original Fight over Science in Schools 😃
by Debbie Levy; published January 14, 2025; 3 starred reviews
Junior (Ages 11 to 14) Nonfiction -- of strong YA interest.
An account of the events leading up to the Scopes trial, the trial itself, and the subsequent related happenings of the characters, legislation, and issues leading up to the present.
The careful research that went into the making of this book is evident. The writing is engaging and feels immediate and dynamic. Levy, herself a lawyer, writes in a way that would capture the eager interest of any reader. A dynamic history. Very relevant to current events involving science deniers, the rise of religious fundamentalism, and recent legislation against teaching science in classrooms in red states.
Death in the Jungle: Murder, Betrayal, and the Lost Dream of Jonestown 😃
by Candace Fleming; published April 29, 2025, 6 starred reviews;
YA Nonfiction. History. An accounting of the events leading up to, during, and in the aftermath of the mass suicide in Guyana by the followers of cult leader Jim Jones in the 1970s.
Very well researched and compellingly told. Reads like page-turner fiction. This book has been the teens' favorite so far. They were transfixed by the telling of this bit of US history... even though they had never even heard of the events of Jonestown before reading this.
Run Away With Me 😃
by Brian Selznick; published April 1, 2025; 3 starred reviews;
YA Novel, LGBTQ+ Romance, Illustrated
A lovely story of falling in love amid the History of Art, Architecture, Publishing, and Book Sellers of Rome, Italy. Eternal gay love stories of Rome interplay with the story of two teenage boys as they fall in love with Rome and with one another. Beautiful storytelling weaves in and out of the narrative. And, of course, Selznick's illustrations further enhance the narrative, allowing the reader to more accurately visualize the places described in the book. Interesting afterward about how Brian Selznick and his husband spent time in Rome discovering the arts and letters of Rome and Rome's intricate history.
Song of a Blackbird 😃
by Marie Van Lieshout; published January 21, 2025; 5 starred reviews
YA Graphic Novel with historical themes
Outstandingly written and illustrated. Illustrations incorporate photography with drawn art. The geographical settings, grids, architecture feel clear and relatable. The characters and the story line are fascinating, nuanced, and meaningful. The changes in time period and setting are fascinating. The interrelationships are expertly crafted. The solution to a fundamental mystery woven into the story is beautifully unveiled.
PRETTY GOOD 🙂 2025 YA Books That IWe HaveRead:
The History of Everything 🙂
by Victoria Evans; published February 18, 2025; 1 starred review
YA Graphic Novel about friendship and loyalties
The story of the friendship and abandonment by one of the friends for the sake of a male love interest was interesting and felt emotionally accurate.
Hunger's Bite 🙂
by Robin Taylor; published February 25, 2025; 2 starred reviews
YA Graphic Novel, steampunk fantasy horror
Fanciful art and storytelling. The art and setting suggest the early 20th century, but the technology suggests a more modern period. The premise for the guardianship of the main female character is rather confusing, and, like many horror stories, the logic of the story is illusive, but it was solidly entertaining to read. Not especially memorable, but good.
S)kin 🙂
by Ibi Zoboi; published February 11, 2025; 6 starred reviews
YA Novel-in-Verse, Caribbean folklore, Immigration, Racism, Fantasy
Engaging story; a few errors in cosmology. (A waxing moon is not leading to a new moon.) Page turner, Interesting Caribbean folklore and considerations about racism, Engrossing plotline
Sunrise on the Reaping 🙂
by Suzanne Collins; published March 18, 2025; 3 starred reviews
YA Novel, Dystopian, Hunger Games Series Prequel
Collins' latest in the Hunger Games series is every bit as good as the first four...although, by now, we can say this series has been too revisited to be considered for a Printz award. This is the story of Haymitch's teen experience as a District 12 tribute in the hunger games. The story is well written and the characters are complex. The reader grows to care about each, and the sadness at the end is devastating. Collins once again demonstrates how good quality dystopian YA should be written.
SO-SO 😶 2025 Books That I/We Have Read:
A Bird in the Air Means We Can Still Breathe 😶
by Mahogany L. Browne; published March 11, 2025; 4 starred reviews
YA Novel, COVID, Social Issues, Poetry
I read this book, but the teen book club refused to read it last spring because, in their words, "Don't make us read ANYTHING about COVID!" (LOL) This book has relevant societal merit as a look into the experiences of POC characters in NYC during the pandemic. However, I wouldn't recommend it as it does not flow. Often, the register is off or stilted; for example, the spoken dialog between teen characters was often too formal, or too literary to feel authentic. Or, for example, in a letter from a teen to his mother, the teen writes out word-for-word extended quotes of previous conversations he and his mother have had with each other..like a court doc with exact quotes. Presumably, that text is written for the benefit of informing the reader of what has taken place earlier in their relationship, but it doesn't fit stylistically with actual personal communication between family members. The book is short, but it was tough to finish because the characters and their interactions didn't feel real.
Dreamover 😶
by Dani Diaz; published January 14, 2025; 2 starred reviews
YA Graphic Novel, Friendship, Dreams
A dreamlike story of a co-ed friendship turned into an obsession leading to loss, which later is resolved into a less obsessive sort of friendship/romance...or something? It's a little confusing trying to resolve whether the friendship turned romance is meant to be good or just really icky. The book club teens felt the book is not memorable.
Everything is Poison 😶
by Joy McCullough; published January 14, 2025; 3 starred reviews
YA Novel, Renaissance, Women, Social Issues
While the plot moves along in a readable way, the author presses a heavy-handed message that all men (except for the flawlessly idealized male love interest) are bad, while all women (except for catty rich bitches) are good. The characters are one-dimensional, either all good or all bad. There is lots of telling rather than showing.
Kirby's Lessons for Falling (In Love) 😶
by Laura Gao, published March 4, 2025, 2 starred reviews
YA Graphic Novel, Queer Romance
This story has sophistication with lots of subplots and interesting art experimentations, but it is often confusing with too many characters to keep track of and the artwork is a little too experimental to be easily understood.
The Otherwhere Post 😶
by Emily J. Taylor, published February 25, 2025, 4 starred reviews
YA Novel, Fantasy, Magic, Romance
This could appeal to some readers as a kind of a Harry Potter knock-off with sexy, bodice-ripper vibes. It seems this may be fanfic. It's like Hogwarts school, but with only one subject being taught... that subject being how to conjure up special magically produced written script ... and with lots of descriptions of repressed sexual longings. The author does not establish any world building, making the story feel ungrounded, but the plot finally begins to take hold after a slow beginning. The story is somewhat entertaining and there are some good bits.... but the repeated descriptions of lustful imaginings by the main character and her male love interest feel repetitive.
When We Ride 😶
by Rex Ogle, published March 25, 2025, 3 starred reviews
YA Fiction, Friendship, Substance Abuse
The reader wants to care about what happens to the protagonist in this book, but the end is foreshadowed early and then the same mistakes, the same bad decisions that lead to doom keep happening over and over. It is hard to sympathize with the protagonist as he keeps choosing to sacrifice his own safety and future for a person not worthy of his friendship. The reader stops caring after a while and just hopes to slog through to the end of this short book. There's not much nuance or subtlety here.
A World Worth Saving 😶
by Kyle Lukoff, published February 4, 2025, 4 starred reviews
Junior (ages 10-14) Novel...of strong YA interest. Trans youth support, Magic, Conversion Therapy
This book is a pretty engaging and exciting magical realist story, and it covers some important topics (transphobia, conversion therapy, religious coercion, parental rejection, and homelessness) that can launch important discussions among youths and adults. It is worth reading, but has some flaws. The book over-simplifies some issues. Also, the narrative bogs down a little past halfway when the main character keeps acting like a jerk...over and over in a way that starts to not make sense to the reader.... He behaves insensitively to people who are his friends or acquaintances who are genuinely trying to help him. Realistically, mostly decent people can behave badly and then learn from their mistakes, but it goes on for far too many pages and becomes quite tiresome. Still, I would recommend this book and add it to your body of trans youth literature.
I'll keep you posted as I (or the teen book club) read and evaluate additional 2025 YA titles.
Very excited about this year's Mock Printz!

Hi Lisa!
I have missed you all, too!
This added context is super helpful, thank you! And, absolutely re: the materials from Mock Printz this year. Here is the primary Google Drive folder where I saved materials: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1477cIJJLUUoBA3RuqUACCs5gtZOmHdpT?usp=sharing<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/drive.google.com/drive/folders/1477cIJJLUUoBA3RuqUACCs5gtZOmHdpT?usp=sharing__;!!Mz3y04SuVKn4zVb91lY!hOkvQhglJwIUtbWqGLI1WaZWBuBFXw2gifFNtkTkR3_B4oN4Y7UBA8IAbSfCDHlp74hiJGNszU6S49OVbNt_V7E$>
Please let me know if anything doesn’t open and/or allow edit access and I will fix that as soon as possible. Please also let me know if I can help with adapting any materials, as I’m in kind of an in-between place with workload and feel I can spend some time on this effort. Plus, I just REALLY love Mock Printz in any iteration!
This is reminding me that I had wanted to create a master document with a “how-to” plan and run a Mock Printz, including timeframes, email verbiage, form templates, etc, and that maybe now could be a good time to develop some of those tools? Let me know what’s needed and how I can help, and I can let you know what capacity I have!
Thank you all, and take good care,
❤ Kristy

Subject: RE: Mock Printz
Hey everybody! Yes, to A Bird in the Air, just based on buzz and reviews alone! We have a quick turnaround for the Mini Mock Printz, and we’ve given ourselves permission to vet and select books we haven’t necessarily read, so maybe it would make the most sense to create a longlist and send it out to members/teens and ask for feedback? That would prevent us from ending up with a huge list we then have to sort through. I think it’s also totally OK for us to just pick 6-8 books.
Kristy, I’m so glad you might be able to hang out again. I missed you! We want to put together some resources libraries can use to plan their own Mini Mock Printz workshops, and create a voting form to share with everyone so they can vote asynchronisticly. If you have the spoons to share them, I’d love to go over the materials you used for the workshop this year and adapt them.
Y’all rule.

I think utilizing the Listserve is a great idea and getting titles that way! I have a thought of maybe utilizing a similar format to the graphic rave where people vote for ones that they think might be great titles.

Hey Lindsey!
Thanks so much for including me on this list. I might finally be at a place when I can consider participation with OYAN again, which is fantastic.
One thought for crowdsourcing and gathering input is to ask OYAN librarians to share the list with their Teen Advisory groups for their ideas, suggestions, and feedback. This may be a bust, depending on how up on reading the newest YA they are... similarly, we could encourage teen librarians to share with their YS colleagues (if any at their library/in their system) and solicit feedback and ideas from them. There are several YS staff who are avid readers of YA. For that matter, we have several staff outside of YS who may want to participate in this way, too. And, I've got several friends who aren't librarians, but are educators and YA readers. Maybe we can all work our networks?
I don't know about things for you all, but we're wrapping up summer reading and teens who've won something in our prize drawing are coming in to pick those up. It might be possible to ask them for some feedback, too?
Totally spitballing here, so please feel free to ignore these ideas if that's the best thing!
And, I haven't yet read it, but I wonder about adding this title to the Mock Printz List?

Subject: Fwd: Mock Printz
Hello everyone!
At our last OYAN meeting, we talked about doing a Mock Printz Lite! We agreed to aim for 8 titles total (or 6 chosen together, with the remaining 2 picked individually by each librarian).
I’ve started a working list of potential titles here: 2025 Mock Printz Titles<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16JSM_LmRlSu6M9teDGLEi_iW_Y3vYsJBoeyrEasXRq0/edit?usp=sharing__;!!Mz3y04SuVKn4zVb91lY!hOkvQhglJwIUtbWqGLI1WaZWBuBFXw2gifFNtkTkR3_B4oN4Y7UBA8IAbSfCDHlp74hiJGNszU6S49OVjp8Lcxg$>
If you have ideas for how we should gather input, crowdsource suggestions, or vote on the final list, let me know—I’m happy to set it up. And if I accidentally left anyone off this email, or you know of someone who would be interested, please feel free to forward it along.
One reminder: looking over reviews and other methods of vetting still count when suggesting books. (We learned that the hard way last year!)
Thanks,
Lindsey

I suggest sharing this with the OYAN exec board and few past Printz helpers, like Kristy, Lorene, Lily, and Danielle.
