    Booker Prize 2026 Long List Reaction

    We've share our thoughts on this year's long listed books. Aaron keeps his streaky having predicted a book which made it onto the list - everyone else has failed yet again to live up to his standard, but the group choice of John of John did make it onto the list. The bookies describe each of the novels to each other and end with a Covergirl segment in which they judge the book covers. We'll be covering the shortlist of 6 books, but we have some surprise special episodes on the way beforehand.
