Hugo nominations are open (we’ll skip past the mess that was last year’s Hugos and focus on the new ones) and while I read the books by my favorite authors and many of the others on all the big recommendation lists, I don’t want to skip over the books that didn’t have marketing budgets.
It’s too easy to get in a rut and nominate all the books by writers I like just because I like them. I’m a huge Murderbot fan, for example, and I voted for the first books at the time, but while I’d recommend last year’s book to anyone I wouldn’t call it Hugo-worthy. What are the books that moved you or transformed the genre that didn’t make it on the bestseller lists?
