Indiana books Going to Library of Congress' Great Reads from Great Places

 From The Indiana books representing the state at a national festival:

Driving the news: Indiana's chapter of the Library of Congress Center for the Book selected Tess Gunty's "The Rabbit Hutch" and Kim Howard's "Grace and Box" to represent the state at this year's National Book Festival.

Zoom in: Each year, the Indiana Center for the Book has selected a title to represent the state at the festival and on the Library of Congress' Great Reads from Great Places list.

• Last year, the center chose two books — a children's title and an adult selection, Suzanne Walker, the center's director, told Axios.
• The selected books must have an author who has a connection to the state, a plot set here or some other Hoosier tie.
• Other recent selections include "Zorrie" by Laird Hunt, "You Should See Me in a Crown" by Leah Johnson and "The Season of Styx Malone" by Kekla Magoon.
