Amanda Svensson nominerades till Augustpriset 2011 för Välkommen till den här världen: med motiveringen:
”En oliksidig triangel är inte perfekt, konstaterar författaren till den här romanen, om kärlek, vänskap och en ödesdiger svartsjuka. I 'Välkommen till den här världen:' svingar sig Amanda Svensson suveränt mellan olika språknivåer och skildrar färgsprakande, lekfullt och hektiskt tre unga människor på jakt efter mening i Köpenhamns elektrifierade natt. En nattklubbstragedi, en hela-havet-stormarlek på liv och död. Det är intensivt, det är innovativt och det är alldeles alldeles underbart.” -
