Shows how little I know

I was a little surprised to hear that Stef Penney won the Costa Prize this week for The Tenderness of Wolves. Whilst it was an okay read, I wouldn't have thought it was a prize winner!

Shows how little I know really doesn't it!

  1. Nah Marg, it's now "how little you know"... when it comes to awards and prices, most of the jury have weird tastes and most of time, never reflect what the audience and fans really like. Sad no?

  2. Don't look at me!! I read last year's Booker Prize Winner, The Sea with you guys over on the Oprah site. That book nearly bored me to tears!! Actually the last few prize winners I read were like that!!
