So come on! Now you’ve got until the 7th Feb to send us your votes. Each student votes for their top 5 books. Then we need to know how many people like each book for each school, so your final voting form will look like this:

  • After Tomorrow — 10
  • At Yellow Lake — 15
  • Bodyguard: Hostage — 12

Then we’ll add together all your totals and we’ll have our 2014 Shortlist. Simples. We’ll let you know what titles have made it to the Shortlist then all you have to do is to start reading. We’ve also got 3 major competitions for you this year – see the Competition page for more details – and we’ll have lots of fun activities and challenges for you to complete before the awards presentation night in July.

You can find another copy of the votings form here: 2014 ABA Long List Nomination Forms
