This is how I personally responded to TLGITU. How did you react? Yes, I know, I talk like a year one student, and no, I don't need you to criticize my language. But hey, it gets the message across. Also most of this is interior dialogue I don't just talk to myself all the time.
I read my first Inkys book 'One Of Us Is Lying' and it was great. I wrote this poem to reflect society's (both in and out of the novel) views on stereotypes and their roles inside a high school. Don't worry there are no spoilers in the poem, I could never do that to people (I'm allergic to spoilers).
The Inky Award judges have 20 books to read in two months and the shadow judges had a month to read two books each... so I set them some extra work! I asked them to tell us a bit about themselves so we can get to know them a bit better. Curious about who is hard at work creating the Inky Awards shortlist? Learn more about them in our Meet the Judges series.
