2010 National Book Awards nominees

The 2010 National Book Award nominees were announced today. Science Fiction author Samuel R. Delany was among the fiction judges, but no science fiction, fantasy or mystery novels were among the finalists in the Fiction category. Paolo Bacigalupi’s Ship Breaker (review) was nominated in the Young Adult category.

Note: The National Book Awards website is slow/dead today. When I was finally able to get in, all the images, etc were not able to be loaded.
