Ben Reads Good | I judged a book prize! ๐ | BookTube Prize book reviews and ranking @benreadsgood | Uploaded April 2024 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
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.
