Hey, hi!

I know, you all are pretty excited to know the shortlist candidates, but before that we'd like to have a word with you all.

As the award is nearing an end, we judges would like to congratulate all the participants who came forward and enrolled their books because for they believed in the power of their books and their writing and trust us, each and every story enrolled here was unique in its own way.

Throughout the awards, we loved to see the bond that few participants made with one another by congratulating and supporting each other.

Also, we don't want to self- praise ourselves here, but we think, we have got all the right to blow our own trumphet, after successfully managing this award so far, by stating that, "through this platform, we have literally got to read many unrecognized books who deserved much recognition and praises."

During this long pause, we all the judges were working and discussing about the books and the winners, behind the scene. And honestly, even now, any of the judges have literally no idea that who would bang the top 3, because, all the shortlisted participants are exceptionally amazing.

So, without any ado, let's welcome the SHORTLISTERS OF BLUE STAR ICY AWARD— 2019-20, with applause.
