LIVE REACTION to the Women's Prize Shortlist! // making predictions and deciding favourites 

Soldier Sailor was sooo stressful but really captured the anxiety of becoming a mom in today's world. Great video!

I have only read Brotherless Night from the longlist but I loved it!

I loved a Trace of Sun!

I ended up really enjoying Western Lane, but I maintain that there was absolutely too much squash in there!!

I’ve got In Defence of the Act out of the library now, on your recommendation!

Such a good job with how many you read from the longlist!

Wow well done! Pretty accurate predictions! I’m glad the Maiden wasn’t on the short list but other than that I can’t judge. At least you can stop reading the long list now. You did it! ❤

i’ve been waiting for this one! 🎉

You did so well! Impressive reading bookworm 🤓

This prize has definitely made me feel more up to date with literaey fiction, too. I normally read around 10, but once I'm done the shortlist it will be 12. (I might also pick up Hangman). You were really good with your predictions.

Some of the shortlist picks are crazy!
