  4. Five books: Warming up with a festive high-five

    Printers Row Lit Fest announced its lineup earlier this week, and it's led by Judy Blume, the beloved children's book author who has helped several generations endure the agony of adolescence. Blume will receive the Chicago Tribune's Young Adult Literary Prize during the fest, which will be June 8-9. For the next six weeks, this page will be dedicated to Lit Fest authors, offering reading suggestions by some of the nearly 200 authors who will attend. This week we'll start with five headliners. Although with Colum McCann, Elizabeth Berg, Irvine Welsh, Julia Sweeney, Anchee Min, Lauren Weisberger and Blue Balliett on the bill &mdash; not to mention dozens of others &mdash; it was difficult to pick just five. For more on Lit Fest, including a full list of participants, visit <a href=&quot;http://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/books/printersrowlitfest/">printersrowlitfest.org</a>.
