Try to read 3 of the Minnesota Book Awards Finalists before the winners are announced in May 2024.

This is not affiliated with the Friends of the Saint Paul Public Library. I just love reading books by Minnesota authors and hope others do, too.

More information about the Minnesota Book Awards:
The Minnesota Book Awards is a year-long program that connects readers and writers throughout Minnesota with the stories of our neighbors.

The process begins in the fall with book submissions and continues through winter with two rounds of judging. Winners are announced at the annual Minnesota Book Awards Ceremony each spring. Woven throughout the season are various activities and events that promote the authors and connect the world of Minnesota books – writers, artists, illustrators, publishers, editors, and more – to readers throughout the state.
