SFF Hot from Printers: New Releases discussion

the new year brought the ability to nominate best works of 2021. While big ones like Hugo are still ahead, you may take part in smaller ones. One of such is 2021 AnLab Award. It is available for everyone voting for the Analog Science Fiction and Fact Analytical Laboratory (AnLab), covering works published in its 2021 issues. Readers can select three favorite choices from each magazine in novella, novelette, short story, poem, and cover categories, as well as a “Best Science Fact” article from Analog. The deadline to vote is February 1, 2022.

I understand that our members except for me haven't read them, but I advise to vote my list to get a chance to win a yearly subscription. Another bonus - all top nominees will be available as PDFs on the site.
