Do you know how many book/literary awards are out there in the world? A lot.
There are the big guns like the Nobel, the Man Booker, the Pulitzer, the Miles Franklin, the Vogel... and that's just the type of the iceberg for the English language alone.
We usually make a point of getting the finalists for the Children's Book Council of Australia awards and the winners of the Miles Franklin and Man Booker prizes, and we tend to grab a few more award winners (and some of the short listers) from various other literary awards as well.
Which is handy, because this week's Reading Challenge is:
25. An award-winning book.
So find yourself a book that tickled some judges' fancies, and get reading!
