named as finalists in the 17th Annual Foreword Reviews’ INDIEFAB Book of the
Year Awards. They are:

of the Irish in New Orleans, illustrated with photographs.
"You
Don’t Know Me" by James Nolan in the Short Story category, a collection of

determine the winners in more than 60 categories. Winners will be announced at
the American Library Association annual conference on Friday, June 26.
