The Goodreads Choice Awards 2019 have just started, and readers are currently able to vote for their favourite 2019 releases in different categories in the opening round. I voted earlier this week, and I thought it would be fun to take you through my votes. Feel free to add me on Goodreads, by the way!
I would like to remind you that you don’t have to specifically choose any of the pre-selected books. You can also add in your own favourite 2019 releases by manually adding them. You can find this function if you scroll past the selected books. This is especially a great way to add in more diverse book choices.

I voted for Heartstopper and The Starless Sea as well and also a few others, but I have forgotten now and GR won’t let me go back and look! 😂 Most of the ones you voted for (that I haven’t read) are on my TBR 😀

I think they’ve moved into the next round now so that’s maybe way I couldn’t see! But I re-voted and I picked: Aphrodite Made Me Do It, Starless Sea, Sorcery of Thorns and Heartstopper!
