2024 Hugo Awards – The Finalists

WELL. The gigantic trash fire of last year’s nominating process sure was a thing, wasn’t it. It sounds like there’s been a house-cleaning in the committee, and maybe we can hope that all the votes are fairly counted this year, and no one’s getting unfairly disqualified, yes?
