The BSFA shortlist is out - somehow I only spoted it today. (The Nebula final ballot is out too, but I'll post the stats for that tomorrow.)
There are five shortlisted novels, which were 8th, 13th, 16th, 17th and 32nd on
my previous ranking.

It's striking that although
Rosewater has the most owners on both systems, it's also relatively low-ranked, last on GR and second last on LT. Meanwhile
Europe At Dawn and
Revenant Gun take first and second place in both systems.
Well, we'll see.
