Golden Scoop Nominees TBR Pt 2 - Charity Anthologies, LGBTQ+ Releases, POC Releases, and NOVELS!

Quite a few of you asked about getting a list of the nominees compiled into a single list, so I have undertaken this mighty task! I'm including everything, even ones that were disqualified, so they can still get some light shown on them as well. I'll break them down by category below, and there are so many in each category that I'll break this up into parts. This is the category they were nominated in, so I'm not vetting them to make sure they're in the right place, and if the nomination or author name was misspelled, I might not catch it. I promise I mean no disrespect!
