The opening round of the 2025 Goodreads Choice Awards has started, and it continues until November 23rd. Following that is the final round of voting, which will have only a shortlist of the most popular books from round one. That opens November 25th and runs until November 30th. The winners are announced December 4th.
There are books in 15 categories to vote for: Fiction, Historical Fiction, Mystery & Thriller, Romance, Romantasy, Fantasy, Science Fiction, Horror, Debut Novel, Audiobook, Young Adult Fantasy & Sci-Fi, Young Adult Fiction, Nonfiction, Memoir, and History & Biography.
The Goodreads Choice Awards is the most blatantly a popularity contest of all the year-end awards: you don’t need to have read all the books in a category to vote for the “best” one. In fact, you don’t even need to have read the book you’re voting for. Still, it makes for a good snapshot of the books getting the most attention at this point in time.
You can vote at the Goodreads website.
