it's impossible to vote for ' Best books of 2023' until you've read them ...

How come "Maame", by Jessica George, is twice on this list, currently at 75 and at 132?

Why is "A Winter Grave" by Peter May stating that it was not published in this year when I try to add it to this list? It was released in January 2023?!?

It needs to have the original publication date noted, probably. It's two different fields, due to reprints of books. If you link it here, I (or someone else) will edit it so you can add. Assuming it hasn't already been resolved ^^

I added The Trail to You & Me by Mandi Lynn Bell. It's a very sweet, clean romance with hiking elements.

There are several books not showing as published this year that I would vote for. Liars ans Liasons by Sav R Miller, secret Obsession by S M Massery, Marrow by Brynne Weaver and Trisha Wolffe.

im sorry but I really didn't enjoy Happy Place

Every time I see a list like this, it makes me grateful I read books that interest me and bring me new perspectives, not just the ones TikTok talks about the most.

Flagged.

The Rise and the Fall of the EAST: Examination, Autocracy, Stability and Technology by Yasheng Huang—says it wasn’t published in 2023. Can’t even vote for it in the decade of the 2020s.

Yeah, that's whack. Every now and then, the system will do that, and I have no idea why. This title wasn't previously published in another language; it's completely legit. Sadly, it is also a problem that we humble volunteer librarians are unable to fix. Go to the librarians' thread, and they should set it to rights.

Post a link to the book and a link to prove it's date, and I will do it so you can add it.

Do you really need readers to post links? Can’t you look at the Goodreads website?

Well, if you want help, for niche stuff sometimes it helps.
However, I was able to pull on Google the publication year as 2023.
The issue usually comes with translated books, as the English edition might not always be first. And if it's not English, it's hit or miss on if it gets added here.

You should be able to add, it might "take 15 min" to register.
