What an amazing list we have this year. I've read five and have another three on my TBR, but I couldn't begin to guess who will win. It's brilliant to see a more diverse list of authors shortlisted, particularly following controversy with other shortlists.

Paper Butterflies and Beautiful Broken Things are easily my favourites here, but there is so much talent on the shortlist that it's hard to say who win. I can only wish all the authors (and the judges) the best of luck!
