Shortlist Rankings & Winner Prediction || Booker Prize 2024 || ange’s book chatter

[@GunpowderFictionPlot]

Big agree with your analysis, James has to be the favourite, but Orbital and Safekeep are potential winners too... Really for me it's anything but Held.

[@anges_book_chatter]

I enjoyed Held more than I thought after seeing people’s videos. James is my personal favourite, but anything can happen with the Booker. 🙂

[@CharlieBrookReads]

I would LOVE if you were right about James. I feel like Held will win or Orbital but I really liked Stoneyard Devotional and The Safekeep too. I feel so out of it this year but look forward to seeing anyways ❤📚❤️

[@anges_book_chatter]

I do hope James wins it is my personal favourite. ❤️

[@spreadbookjoy]

At some point I will read James but I’m going to be on a read-what-you challenge so no new books for me! Also I think I may enjoy Orbital - I like space and I like quiet books. 📚

[@anges_book_chatter]

@@spreadbookjoy I think you would really love the quietness of it. I will ask Santa on your behalf 🤶🏼🎅🏼

[@GemofBooks]

Your bottom 2 are the 2 I haven’t read, so happy with that 😂

[@anges_book_chatter]

Probably for the best you haven’t read Held and Creation Lake. Getting my ranking practice in before the Booktube Prize.

[@novellenovels]

I will try safe keep and James but after Charlie I can’t read orbital 😂😂

[@anges_book_chatter]

Those are the two I think you would enjoy the most from the shortlist. I would love Charlie’s reaction if Orbital wins. 😂

[@booksandbags]

I am rooting for James, but would be happy with Held or Orbital. SYD would be next, then The Safe Keep with Creation Lake at the bottom-the only book I did not enjoy.

[@anges_book_chatter]

@@booksandbags I think the judges had a tough job this year, everyone has more than one they wanted to win.

[@spexi513]

Loved Orbital and am hypeeeee it won. I also loved SYD, The Safekeep and James …. And feel like latter has Pulitzer Prize vibes all over it . 📕🪱💚

[@anges_book_chatter]

@@spexi513 Me too. Well deserved winner. I think James will get the love from Pulitzer and/or National Book Awards. 🌏🛰️

[@AbiofPellinor]

I always forget about every single book longlist and shortlist until someone makes content on them 💀 I'm super curious whether your predictions turn out to be correct!!

[@anges_book_chatter]

My track isn’t good, but I have gave myself 3 chances to be correct 😂

[@ameliabarlowbooks]

you nailed it Ange! 🤍🪐🌙

[@anges_book_chatter]

@@ameliabarlowbooks 🌏🛰️ Wish I could see Charlie’s face. I think it’s a beautiful book. This year was tough to rank. Judges had a difficult job.
