Nebula novels nominees, ranked by Goodreads/LibraryThing stats

The Nebula nominees are out. Full list is here. I've read three of the novels, four of the novellas, three of the novelettes, four of the short stories, and none of the Andre Norton nominees. (And seen two of the Ray Bradbury nominees.)

The novels, ranked by Goodreads ownership (which is almost the same as LibraryThing ownership except for a swap in second and third pace), are as follows:

Goodreads LibraryThing
owners av rating owners av rating
Uprooted by Naomi Novik 97,850 4.18 761 4.25
The Fifth Season, by N.K. Jemisin 31,351 4.34 318 4.37
Ancillary Mercy, by Ann Leckie 15,719 4.25 448 4.34
The Grace of Kings, by Ken Liu 13,127 3.76 246 3.84
Updraft, by Fran Wilde 3498 3.71 81 3.52
Barsk: The Elephants' Graveyard, by Laurence M. Schoen 2223 3.9 28 5
Raising Caine, by Chuck Gannon 258 4.17 14 4

I'll probably try to read the others, once I've finished my BSFA reading.

One thought on “Nebula novels nominees, ranked by Goodreads/LibraryThing stats

  1. I honestly can’t remember the first thing that I saw from 1964, but I suspect it was the VHS release of ‘The Daleks’.

    I have a certain fondness for the out-and-out weirdness of ‘Edge of Destruction’, despite it being pretty stagey by modern standards (and doesn’t really make any real sense when you think about it.)

    The David Whitaker book is still a fantastic read (I re-read the 50th Anniversary release a few months ago) and I’d still hold it up as being one of the best of the adaptations.
