Yay I wouldn't mind seeing these actual results hold true! Ninth Ward was mesmerizing and I would like to see an author win who has never won before. And One Crazy Summer definitely deserves at least an honor :)
Thanks for the list - It will be interesting to see who the 2011 winners will be!
Best, Kyra
