Inky Awards short lists announced

The Inky Awards are all about what teenagers want to read. As opposed to the awards that are given to books that adults think you should read. Teenage judges have narrowed the long list down to the 5 books in each category they think you will like the best.

If you want to read them all and vote for your favourite you can. If you want to read one or two and vote for your favourite you can. Or, as I like to do, you want to just use it as a way of picking one of the more interesting books to read that has come out in the last year this list is great for that too!


The Gold Inky short list (for Australian authors)

Flywheel by Erin Gough
Illuminae by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff
Sister Heart by Sally Morgan
