Hugo 2023 Eligible Novels
This list is for NOVELS published in 2022 that are eligible for the 2023 Hugo Awards. "Novel" in this context means works over 40,000 words. However, note that some leeway is allowed in word count.
From the World Science Fiction Society Constitution:
3.2.8: The Worldcon Committee may relocate a story into a more appropriate category if it feels that it is necessary, provided that the length of the story is within twenty percent (20%) of the new category limits.
It's hard to keep track of all the science fiction and fantasy books published in one year. For those among us who nominate and vote for the Hugo Awards, I created this list. Let's add books and help each other remember especially the books that don't get a lot of buzz but may well deserve award recognition.
According to the Hugo Award FAQ, works are eligible if they were published in the calendar year preceding the year in which the vote takes place if published in the United States, and for the previous and current year if published in English outside the US. Works first published in languages other than English are also eligible in their first year of publication in English translation. Works eligible for the 2023 Hugo Awards are either first published in the US or first published in English translation in 2022, or first published in 2021 in English in a country other than the US if it did not make the ballot in 2022.

Here are the lists from previous years:
2023 Hugo Eligible Novellas
2022 Hugo Eligible Novels
2021 Hugo Eligible Novels
2020 Hugo Eligible Novels
2019 Hugo Eligible Novels
2018 Hugo Eligible Works
2017 Hugo Eligible Works

The original creator of these lists does not seem active on Goodreads anymore, so I thought I'd create one this year. I've mostly used their text for consistency's sake.

Hi Philip! That's not one I had looked at before. If you'd like to create it, please feel free.

Hi! Do you think you'll do them for 2024? I'll plan to do the novels list again if I don't hear from you.

Hi Philip, do you plan to make the 2024 novella list too? I'm happy to help but didn't want to do it if you'd planned to. Thanks!
