We’re doing things a bit differently this year then we have in years past. Rather than having people post their votes in the comments, we are using an online ballot and you can vote here. We dithered between two rounds, but opted for a decisive single one. Voting will close on Friday night, so get those votes in early!
You’ll notice that we’ve doubled the size of the shortlist, from 9 to 18. I’m hoping that some of you will take advantage of this time to lobby for some of these very deserving books that didn’t make the previous shortlist.
