New Voices Debut Authors in the Longlist

 

Equally exciting is the strong presence of debut authors, including Claire Adam (Love Forms) and Maria Reva (Endling). Their novels have sparked buzz across book blogs, review sites, and BookTok discussions, as many readers rush to discover these fresh perspectives before the shortlist is revealed.

This blend of established and emerging talent has given the 2025 longlist a unique vibrancy that appeals to both critics and general readers.
