Goodreads Choice Awards

Did you guys vote? 

Usually I've read one of two per category, or at least recognize the covers, but this year I'm kind of shocked at how many I've never even heard of, much less read. YA Fantasy was the only category where I'd read a bunch of the contenders.

  • I voted. I felt like I read more this year than in the past but there are always ones that I've never heard of or make me scratch my head.

  • I admittedly have not read a ton this year.  I did have a few categories with books that I could vote for.  What I did like is that of the books I read, many of them I really liked so I felt good about voting for them.

  • I voted.  I skip some categories, though, like children's books and picture books.

  • There were so many titles there that are on my TBR list that it bummed me out. I need another 3 hours of the day that no one knows about so that I can snuggle on a comfy chair and read to my heart's content.

  • I was pleasantly surprised to see that I'd read 1-2 books a category in pretty much all the fiction categories. If there were books I'd not read or didn't know, I skipped the vote.

  • I voted, but only for a couple categories. I didn't read nearly as much this year as I normally do, and what I read wasn't a lot of new releases.

  • If I haven't read any of the books in the category, I go with the ones that you all have read and loved.

  • Also, why is WIMOHB in the romance category?!?!?!

  • No one seems to be able to figure that out.

  • I feel bad voting if I haven't read all the books in a category, because I can't say for sure that the best book I've read is better than all the others.

    I do vote if there's something I've read and absolutely loved, but I still feel a little guilty about it. And there wasn't anything on the ballot this year that really blew me away, so I decided not to vote.
