1. No bribing the judges!

2. Follow this account, @Alana_Sinclair
I have been hearing a lot of complaints going around about following hosts of awards, so I'm going to level with you here. I enjoy giving books the chance to be highlighted, but it's also nice to get something in return and to have a way to get the word out on my future awards. Also, prizes for winners and judges include reading lists and shoutouts on my profile. By following this account, you are helping those prizes be worth more. If you have any other questions or complaints, let me know or find another award please.

3. Follow your judge when they're announced.
They're doing a lot for you! Also, you get disqualified if you don't.

4. Post these awards on your board to advertise them.
The more people hear about these awards, the faster we can get to judging!

6. Add this book to your library so you can stay up to date!

7. Books must be in English.

8. Books must be at least 3 chapters long (prologues count, aesthetics etc. do not).

11. Only judges with prior experience may judge multiple genres.

12. You are not required to vote and comment on the books you read, that is totally up to you.

13. You're gonna have to be okay with LGBT+. This does not mean mature LGBT+, just LGBT+ in general.
All mature stories will be marked, but I'm not singling out LGBT+ stories. This actually isn't a new rule as I haven't marked LGBT+ the past 2 seasons, but I figured I would give a heads-up.
