UKYABA

The UKYA Blogger & Vlogger Awards are about celebrating UKYA book-bloggers and -vloggers, and thanking them for all they do to support the whole bookish community, but especially authors, publishers and readers.

The UKYABA are an amalgamation of the UKYA Blogger Awards, started by author Andy Robb in 2015 and hosted by YAShot in 2016, and the UKYA Book Blogger Awards, designed by blogger Faye Rogers (Daydreamer’s Thoughts) in 2015, then hosted by Luna’s Little Library in 2016. YAShot hosted and ran the Awards in 2018, then again in 2019 – this time in partnership with YALC in 2019… and now again for 2020!

The influence of bloggers and vloggers on the UKYA & UKMG publishing industry can’t be underestimated. The majority work on an entirely altruistic basic, juggling blogging/vlogging with a raft of other commitments to bring honest, informative and engaging reviews to book-lovers everywhere. They write opinion-pieces, participate in publicity tours and create buzz around the books and authors they love.
