I looked over the winners and also all nominated books in the Historical Fiction category and was happy to see some familiar names.

Couldn't help noticing that Michelle Moran's Madame Tussaud and Elizabeth Loupas' The Second Duchess made very good showings in the poll. Michelle came in fourth and Elizabeth in sixth. Sharon Kay Penman's Lionheart is on the list as well.

Very proud of our friends. Congratulations to you all!

Oh, and here's a link: Goodreads Choice Awards

Deanna Raybourn was also nominated for The Dark Enquiry. I seem to remember her being a member here, or am I mixing that up?

I can't recall ever seeing her here. Nice job on the GR awards, especially for Elizabeth with a first time novel. Congrats.

I admit I didn't see the HF entries, but one of the big winners - 1Q84 - piqued my interest enough to want to buy it.
