Over the weekend, I picked up all six books again.
I read them again.
And I thought, I'll just flick through a few pages of each.
And then I read an entire novel because I couldn't put it down.
And that was First Name, Second Name by Steve Minon.
This idea of the walking zombie is so arresting.
It's so disgusting.
And that family story of those generations of Asian Australians, I just found so beautiful and so compelling.
So
I'm going to go for that one as my favourite in a very, very strong list of books that all have something very important to say.
Do you know what?
Yeah.
I would be absolutely thrilled with that if that was the case.
I would too.
I think it is such an exciting book and I think that Oma Musa is a star.
But look, whoever wins, it is a wonderful shortlist and we would like to wish good luck to all six of the shortlisted authors.
It's always a pleasure.

If you've ever encountered him on the page or the screen, I don't reckon you'll forget him.
