Something new coming for 2026…
Behind the scenes, we’ve been working on something special for this year’s winners.
Bespoke. Considered. Designed just for the Rubery.
Not revealing it just yet… but it’s worth the wait.

Can’t recommend this enough, I bought it as Peter was a fellow @RuberyBookAward winner & I’ve read it in two days straight.
It’s a gripping & touching YA Dystopian novel, written with an abundance of subtle literary skill. I loved Will & Leonie’s story and can’t wait for more!
