Two UK-based SF awards shortlists announced this week

Been a bit busy the past few days (and already behind on the books I want to review, although the holiday weekend should afford me the chance to write at least one, if not 2-3 reviews), but I thought I would post links to the 2013 British Science Fiction Association Awards and the 2013 Kitschies (which are a more "alternative" set of awards, although with one of the larger award prizes in the industry).  With these being based in the UK and featuring UK publishers, some of the books listed on their shortlists have not yet (officially) been published in the US (although they can be found on Amazon).  As usual, I'll bold what I've read, italicize what I own but haven't yet read, but no links to reviews, since I don't think I've reviewed any of these, with one exception.  Some of these titles intrigue me, but I doubt I'll get to all of these before the winners are announced (Easter weekend for the BSFA, late February for the Kitschies).
