Reader Awards 2007: Best Book
February 28, 2007
This category is always mostly ignored, but nevertheless close, and this year is no exception. BOP favorite Amy Sedaris wins the Reader Award for Best Book with her awkwardly titled entertainment guide slash entertainment guide spoof "I Like You: Hospitality Under the Influence". Nearly 10 percent behind in second place is Stephen King's Cell, which if you didn't know, is a novel.
Likely to be movies some day: Hannibal Rising in fourth place (okay, so it already is a movie), and John Grisham's The Innocent Man in seventh. BOP favorite Dave Eggers checks in ninth place with What is the What.
