Each year, Booker Tea Reading Group members recommend novels published in or translated into English from award-winning and notable writers worldwide. We then select 12 books to read for the following year.

If you have never recommended a title before, please first read all about How We Choose Our Books before making your own recommendations. Or see the books we’ve previously selected on the What We’ve Read page.

The Call for Books is now open!

Help us create the reading list for 2027 by entering your recommendation in this Google Form: https://forms.gle/vk3ocieh55jBxMfs7.

The form will close on 31 October 2026.
