Twenty titles, set in Scotland or written by Scottish authors, that ranges across different reading tastes, levels and formats - fiction and non-fiction; adult, teen and children; English, Scots and Gaelic; spoken word and graphic novel.
Following the launch at the Aye Write! festival, the shortlist will be promoted in public libraries across Scotland from March to August 2010. A public vote via http://www.heraldscotland.com/go/tesco-summer-read-2010 will allow readers to select the winning title with one lucky reader winning a top of the range Sony eReader.
