The judges consist of the Reader Views staff of reviewers. Reviewers are avid readers and experts in their fields, and they are representative of an author's target reading audience. Judging criteria is content/originality, presentation/design, innovation, social relevance, production quality, enjoyment/impact, plot/story line, and resourcefulness. All authors who enter the contest have their books read and scored, and the books are guaranteed a review placed on the Reader Views website, and social media promotion. Three finalists (sometimes more when there are tie scores) are selected in each category in February before final determinations are made as to the winners each Spring.
