My Christy Checklist

Do you remember when I shared a list of Christy Award winners and finalists I wanted to read, back in 2019? I am updating that list as kind of a checklist for myself so I figured I would just share it here! 

I initially made the list by selecting the titles I was most interested in from all of the winners and finalists before 2018. I am now updating the list to include the winners and finalists I am most interested in from 2019, 2020, and 2021. Hopefully I can check off a few books each year and continue adding to the checklist after each Christy award announcement.
