In this episode of BookQuest, we’re creeping into shadowy gothic corridors and going behind the scenes of the biggest book celebration of the year! Whether you’re investigating a top-secret vampire slayer academy or getting the inside scoop from a judge on the UK’s most exciting children’s book awards, we’re honouring the stories that keep us on the edge of our seats.
