Readers often face extreme challenges in discovering new authors and books. Some websites, such as Goodreads, are often a good avenue, but they are challenging when you want to read a different genre. Some patrol Amazon’s bestseller lists, but normally, it’s the same authors and books, such as Harry Potter or Colleen Hoover.
Book awards are often the best ones since you can easily look at new books you might not have heard of before. The National Book Awards Finalists have just been announced for 2024. The finalists span a myriad of genres.
The New York Times announced the five Finalists in each category: fiction, nonfiction, poetry, translated literature, and young people’s literature. A distinguished panel of judges selected the five finalists in each category, which were advanced from the Longlists announced in September by The New Yorker. Norton / W.
