It’s very late, so this is very short.

A few days ago, Meghan Cox Gurdon, the Wall Street Journal children’s book critic who authored the article “Darkness Too Visible”  and YA author Maureen Johnson, who originated #YASaves in response, were interviewed by NPR. Nobody changed anybody’s mind, of course, but if you have 45 minutes or so to listen, there is a podcast available for your listening pleasure… or annoyance, depending on your feelings about darkness in YA fiction.

Enjoy!
