The Bookshelf's Best Reads of 2020 (Part 1) - Page 2

A more international 2020 challenge than those published so far, not just American (or Australian for that matter). This list mostly comprises books published this year and recommended by a panel of authors, critics and podcasters (admittedly some books are just for laughs). Also includes the panel's favourites from earlier years to read over the holiday season. Even an unpublished Ishiguro novel to look forward to!
Both fiction and non-fiction works are included. Books 55-62 are from the 2020 "Prime Minister's Literary Awards" down here in Australia, as detailed below:
55: Fiction winner
56-59: Fiction shortlist
60: Australian history winner
61: Poetry winner
62: Children's literature winner
