Do we still need the Women’s Prize for Fiction? Who are the books for and how important is a judging panel? Scott and Lucy discuss and review the Women’s Prize 2018 shortlist, and make their predictions on who will win.

If you’ve read any of these novels or have thoughts about whether the Women’s Prize is outdated, please do talk to us in our Women’s Prize Bookchat. We’d love to hear your views bookaxe.com/bookchat/chat/General/do-we-still-need-the-womens-priz
