If you’re undecided about this corner of fiction, Rebecca Diem’s fantastic Tor.com article about the new ‘Golden Age’ of the SFF Novella provides an idea of what to expect from this feisty format. This is pretty evident in my star ratings of these Hugos finalists – I honestly loved all of them. However, I am a total fan of the novella.
SFF fans tend to be divided in their opinion of shorter reads, often preferring lengthy novels that double as a diligent doorstop or a self-isolation exercise weight. They have also dominated the novella scene and brought the format back into popularity, which is how I first discovered great novellas like A Taste of Honey, All Systems Red, The Black Tides of Heaven, and Gods, Monsters and the Lucky Peach. Tor.com was the first publisher I followed on social media due to their fantastic selection of diverse SFF, an exciting niche in fiction that feels like it was created just for me. He has raised £57 for Doctors Without Borders over the month! I’m thrilled to say that I’ve completed my June #ReadersWithoutBorders challenge to read the 2020 Hugo Awards best novel and novella finalists! Thank you to all the lovely people who have donated and to for organising this event.
