The People’s Book Prize

March 9th, 2010

The People’s Book Prize looks like a worthwhile project. It aims to cut out the middlemen (and women) by offering readers a chance to promote the books they love. Each month there’s a vote, and the overall winning book will be declared in July 2010. Beryl Bainbridge is a patron.

Interesting to see their list of participating publishers – small independent presses like Tindal Street and Legend rubbing shoulders with the likes of HarperCollins and Orion:
