Finalists for Of the Month-July

Below are the finalists for the category and genre awards for the month of July. There are two things you need to do in order for your favorite authors and books to win.

The Sales Pitch: If you see several books that you absolutely adore and believe need to win, go to the comments section and leave your best sales pitch, one comment per book. For readers who haven’t read those books, they can get a sense of which books are the best and deserve to win through the sales pitch. If you believe one book really deserves a certain award, use your best persuasive skills and leave a sales pitch in the comments.

The voting: Once you have decided which books you like the most (by checking out the sales pitches and the books themselves), it’s time to vote. Pick one book from each section (please only one book), and send OfTheWeek a pm. Title your private message with FINALIST VOTES. Please pick a book for all of the categories and genres. The voting period is from July 17th until July 24th.

The winners: On July 25th, next Friday, I will post a new chapter in Of the Month, announcing the winners and runner ups for each category and genre award.

REMEMBER THESE ARE FINALISTS NOT WINNERS AND THAT YOU NEED TO VOTE FOR EVER CATEGORY AND GENRE, NOT JUST FOR ONE SPECIFIC GENRE.
