FROM musings about an idyllic childhood to nostalgic thoughts about a beloved Malaysian personality who passed too soon – if you’re a fan of non-fiction books, you will have plenty to choose from in this year’s Popular-The Star Readers’ Choice Awards nominees.
First started in 2008, the Popular-The Star Readers’ Choice Awards aim to put the spotlight on the local literary scene, as well as reward readers for participating in the vote to decide the top three authors in the two categories, fiction and non-fiction. The winning authors will each be awarded cash, trophies and certificates of recognition, while readers who vote will stand a chance to win a RM50 Popular book voucher, one year free Popular card membership, and a book hamper worth RM100.
