Goodreads Choice Awards 2011


I just learned that Robopocalypse has been nominated for a Goodreads Choice Award for Best Science Fiction of 2011!
 

Did you like the book, too? Well then head on down to Goodreads and give old Robo your vote. The machines will thank you -- by sparing your life.*


Some more information from the contest:
Readers have three chances to vote:
Opening Round: October 31 – November 13
Voting open to official nominees (that's you) and write-in votes.
Semifinals: November 14 – November 20
We add the top 5 write-ins as official nominees. Additional write-ins no longer accepted.
Finals: November 21 – November 30
The field narrows to the top 10 books in each category.

ABOUT THE NOMINATIONS
We analyzed statistics from the 87 million books added, rated, and reviewed on the site in 2011 to list 15 books in 22 categories--that's 330 nominations. We did not consult a panel of experts or form a secret committee of publishing insiders. Readers know what's good and what's great. These nominations are based on a book's number of ratings and average rating as pegged by the more than 6 million members on Goodreads. So a nomination is truly an honor because it comes from your readers!
