The Dead Good Reader Awards 2022 – nominate now!

The Dead Good Reader Awards are back to celebrate the very best in crime fiction, with six brilliant new categories – so now’s your chance to shout about the books that caught your attention over the past year!

The first step is the nomination process; simply tell us who’d you pick as your winners using the form below. The books with the most nominations will form the shortlists and go to a public vote, with winners announced at the Theakston Old Peculier Crime Writing Festival in Harrogate this July.

It’s you, the readers, who are in complete control – so what are you waiting for? Nominate now and tell us which gripping page turners should make this year’s shortlists. You’ll be entered into our prize draw for the chance to win £100 worth of thrilling crime books too!

To qualify, books must have been published in any format within the past twelve months. Readers can nominate once – multiple submissions will not be counted.
