And just like that, we're already at the semifinal round for the 2019 Goodreads Choice Awards. Time to find out which books got added, as if choosing just one from each category was not already hard enough.I am beyond thrilled that Thick by Tressie McMillan Cottom has been added to the Best Nonfiction category. I will be giving it my vote as this book deserves more attention than it has received.
Unfortunately, it is the only DSN that received enough write-in votes to be included, which means that all books that will be considered for a 2019 award have been chosen, and no more will be added. I suppose that is good news for the existing competition, which was already going to be tight given the books readers have to choose from. 2019 has been a stellar year as far as the quality of books that were published, let alone the sheer volume.
The semifinal round will remain open for voting through Sunday, November 17, with the final round opening the following Tuesday, November 19. Remember, in the final round, the number of books in each category gets cut by half, so make your voice heard so your favorites make it through.
