It's almost time for the Booker Prize! We have learned so much about books since starting this channel and getting more familiar with the International Booker Prize and (originally written in English) Booker Prize has been a part of that journey. The shortlist recently dropped so we - almost completely uneducated on the books chosen - decided to react to the chosen few. Let us know which you think will win!
As always, thanks for watching. We will catch you in the streets, comments, or the next video.
