2021 Book Awards Shortlist
The Pacific Northwest Booksellers Association (PNBA) is a non-profit association of independent bookstores from five Northwest states, Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana and Alaska. The Association produces educational and promotional events and materials for its members and offers literacy, free speech, and author promotional vehicles through its member stores.
Since 1965, our annual Book Awards have recognized such luminary figures in Northwest literature as Ivan Doig, Ursula K. Le Guin, David James Duncan, Cheryl Strayed, Jonathan Evison, Erik Larson, Chuck Palahniuk, and Sherman Alexie. Many of these authors were honored by PNBA before they received national attention. A history of past winners of the Pacific Northwest Book Award can be viewed on the Book Awards homepage.
PNBA's Awards Committee is comprised of nine volunteer booksellers from throughout our member region. This year's Committee considered more than 350 nominated titles published during 2020 for a 2021 award.
These titles, announced in early November, comprise the list from which up to six 2021 winners will be selected.
Winners be announced in early January and promoted by our member stores during the winter and spring of 2021.
