CONGRATS! I'll be back tomorrow to post the number of votes, the fill in responses (some of them were funny... I'm looking at you Kate!), and to post the certificates for the winning authors!

Thank you SO much for voting. I have learned a lot about what people enjoy in books, and I think we're going to have a lot more fun in this next year. I think we'll focus more on self-published authors. I also have to get my hands on the books that were in the Reader's Choice category!

 Because it's midnight, I'm rather incoherant, so I'll leave it there.
