Today, the Children's Book Council of Australia announced their Book of the Year award winners for 2012.
I am super excited to say that the winner in the Older Readers category was Scot Gardner for
The Dead I Know!

I gave The Dead I Know 4/5 and said,
"I loved The Dead I Know. It was suspenseful, heart-breaking, touching and hopeful."
You can check out my full review here.
The honour books were A Straight Line to my Heart by Bill Condon (read my review here) and When We Were Two by Robert Newton.
