I was surprised by how few of the nominees I’d read. Blue-Eyed Devil for the win! :)

I’ve read most of the paranormals…but none of the YA, erotica or GBLT.
JOANNA BOURNE 4 EVA!!

I’ve read 15 1/2 (didn’t finish Audrey, Wait!… ) of the 64 books listed… and have 9 others on my TBR pile.
I voted for the books that I predicted would win… not the books that I loved the most. I tried to think like the masses. I ended up with Flat Out Sexy for the win. Which is kinda funny since I didn’t even read it! :lol:
Good luck!
