Judges should be harsh, but fair as we want the absolute book to win, so try not to be too lenient.

Each judge will be assigned ten books each, and will be given two weeks to turn in the results.

Hope y'all will be fair and have fun reading all those talented books!!
(I'll let you know when to start judging)
