The TikTok Book Awards, established in May 2023, are annual literary awards presented by TikTok, leveraging the success of its BookTok subcommunity. The awards are intended to "recognise the community's favourite authors, books and creators, through categories inspired by the BookTok ecosystem." An initial longlist is narrowed down by a judging panel with the winners ultimately decided by public vote within the app from the ensuing shortlist.[1][2]
In 2023 the winners of the Book of the Year and Author of the Year categories received £5,000 to donate to a literary charity.[3]
