Good Reads Choice Awards

The annual Goodreads Choice Award gives readers around the world a chance to recognize their favorite books of the year. With over 20 categories of books and more than half a million votes, it's clear that this award is in a league of its own. Here at NBRC, we like to utilize this award by making a reading challenge out of it- after all, it's what we do best.
