Thanks to everyone who has sent in more nominations for the BSFA Awards - just a week remains to tell us about what works have been just your cup of tea in 2013.
A word about eligibility: we appreciate that when faced with a collection of art published together, it is difficult to pick out individual pieces. They're all so good, you tell us. Fantastic... but please try to pick which piece(s) you think is (are) the best. I know, I know...
Plenty of links to follow in the items nominated so far, so fill your boots. Please keep them coming in... and today we are especially appealing for your favourite non-fiction works. Thanks everybody!
