Malinda Lo Wins National Book Award

I mentioned Melinda Lo in sn earlier post.

Now I want to point out Lo makes National Book Award history with 'Last Night at the Telegraph Club'

MARTIN: It's the first time that a young adult book with an LGBT female lead character won the prestigious award. Lo talked with our co-host, A Martinez, about the book, parts of which are in Chinese - a detail which won over a special audience of one.

LO: I'm very proud to report that this is the first book of mine that my mother has read.
