Not ready to join in? You can still help your fellow BookRixers by reading their contest books and voting for your favorite stories. Our readers choose the TOP 10 stories, which then will be reviewed by our independent jury consisting of Elite Editing, various editors and professional writers. In addition, there might be given out wildcards in this contest. That means that not only the TOP 10 stories with the highest amount of votes will be given to the jury, but also a few good books without as many votes as the TOP 10.
10 Amazon vouchers each worth $20 will be raffled for free among all readers taking part in the voting process.
