All of these fine books were issued in the US in 2020, but previous publication disqualifies them under your interpretation. There are plenty of 2019-and earlier-books already here, ie, #72, A Game of Villains, which was published Sept 2019 #114, The Gilded Cage, published Mar 2019-and probably well before that prior to translation #227, The Last Hunt, published in Africaans in 2017 #275, The Only Child, first published in 2010. Good Girl, Bad Blood, also appears on the 2021 list-I would think 2 years of eligibility is also not allowed. At the same time, the excellent first book in the series, A Good Girl's Guide to Murder, which was published here in the US in Feb 2020, and probably picked up at least 20,000 of its 30,000 ratings here in the US, is ineligible. I guess I'm wondering why #32, Good Girl, Bad Blood, which will not be available here in the US until 2021 has almost 5000 ratings-I guess we have that many members in the UK who loved it.
