National Book Awards Announcement

The finalists for the National Book Award were announced this morning on Morning Joe.
Although there were no real surprises, here's one of those kickers that I love: two of the fiction finalists (Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk and The Yellow Birds) are both debut novels.  How cool would that be?  To actually and truly write the Great American Novel the first time you publish a book?

Anywho, this is a lengthy reading list, so get busy--the winners will be announced on November 14th!
