I judged a book prize! šŸ† | BookTube Prize book reviews and ranking

I was very excited to have judged the Octofinals for the BookTube Prize! My thoughts on these books have been kept under lock and key since the start of February, but now the round is over I can share my book reviews and my final ranking. I'm also going to see which books from my ballot progressed based on rankings from all the judges, and react to the result. — ‪@BookTubePrize‬ results video:    • 2022Ā OctofinalsĀ Results – QuarterfinalsĀ Pa...Ā Ā  Original August Blue review:    • EveryĀ bookĀ IĀ readĀ inĀ JulyĀ |Ā ReadingĀ wrap-upĀ Ā  — Books mentioned: šŸ“– August Blue, by Deborah Levy šŸ“– The Rachel Incident, by Caroline O'Donogue šŸ“– Witness, by Jamel Brinkley šŸ“– I Have Some Questions For You, by Rebecca Makkai šŸ“– Enter Ghost, by Isabella Hammad šŸ“– Tom Lake, by Ann Patchett — 00:00 The BookTube Prize 05:04 August Blue 06:07 The Rachel Incident 08:12 Witness 10:28 I Have Some Questions For You 14:23 Enter Ghost 18:40 Tom Lake 22:25 Final rankings 22:55 Reaction to results — Thank you so much for watching. šŸ“š Join the Read Good Challenge 2024:    • ReadĀ GoodĀ ChallengeĀ 2024Ā |Ā ReadingĀ prompts...Ā Ā  āœ‰ļø Email: benreadsgood[at]gmail.com šŸ“ø Instagram: Ā Ā /Ā benreadsgoodĀ Ā  šŸ“Š Storygraph: https://app.thestorygraph.com/profile... šŸŽ Amazon wishlist (books that are tricky to get in a physical bookshop in the UK): https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/... — #books #booktube #booktubeprize
