Marian Keyes triumphs in this category for her whip-smart, warm-hearted novel My Favourite Mistake, brought to life by the author herself. Our judges were blown away by both the “richness” of Keyes’ narration and her “impressive” live editing of the manuscript while in the recording studio.

Penguin Random House Audio ran their biggest audio campaign for Keyes to date and the judges took notice, praising its “impressive” decision to centre its strategy around the author. The publisher ran a Facebook live session directly from the recording studio, followed by an audience Q&A, and worked with ad agency Fifty to create a bespoke campaign.

PRH Audio stopped at nothing to propel Keyes to new heights, cementing her reputation as both a much-loved author and now an unmissable narrator.
