It can now be told, this year’s winners are:
- Filter House by Nisi Shawl
- The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness
*confetti!*
Full press release and shortlist are here. Judging the Tiptree was a very intense experience. But in the end I find myself super happy that I and the other jurors were able to honor some amazing books. I will probably not read this much fiction in one year again in my life, though!
Congratulations on surviving the judging!
I have a lot more books to add to my ‘to read’ list now.
I know exactly what you mean! For me it was an intense and hard but also super amazing process to go through.
Happy, happy, happy for Nisi.
OMFG, Filter House took it!?? That’s brilliant!
Other than the fact that you might want to alter your headline from “Tiptee,” I just dropped in to say thank you for your amazing work in being a juror!
I should not write posts at 3am.
