Acclaimed teen writers to appear at Bellingham library

A trio of women writers will be appearing this weekend as part of a tour promoting the paperback release of their bestselling young adult novels — including the winner of this year’s Printz Award for teen literature.

Ally Condie, Meg Wolitzer and Jandy Nelson will speak during a free event at 4:30 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 7, in the downstairs Lecture Room of the Bellingham Public Library, 210 Central Ave. Village Books will have copies of their work for sale.

Condie is the author of the bestselling dystopian fantasies “Atlantia” and the acclaimed “Matched” trilogy; Wolitzer wrote “Belzhar,” about a boarding school for smart but angst-driven teens; and Nelson’s award-winning “I’ll Give You the Sun” explores the complex relationship between fraternal twins, a boy and a girl — with heartbreaking results.
