Novel prize
If you aren't a regular on Susan Hill's book blog then I most certainly recommend it. You can see how helpful she has been to me and I am very grateful- but her blog is fascinating anyhow.
She has launched a new prize for a novel, to be judged by people who run book blog sites and has very graciously asked me to be one of her group (which I hope will be wide and unexclusive). So I am looking for novels to read so I can submit them as candidates. Please send me books or titles so I can get hunting. Here are Susan's rules:
The novel has to be published between 1 January and 31 December 2006 so there are 3 months and a bit to go with plenty of new novels coming in the autumn. Double check the Booker longlist because their dates of eligibility are different - some of them will have been published at the end of 2005 - before you include any of them.
I don`t think we have any restrictions except that the book has to be written in English and published in the UK. No age or other barriers.
