GO SET A WATCHMAN by Harper Lee was their number one fiction choice. Personally it wouldn't have been mine, but that's what I get for not voting....
I was very disheartened that THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN by Paula Hawkins won Best Mystery. The real mystery is why it was even mentioned.
Where was FATES AND FURIES by Lauren Groff, one of the best of 2015? I heard it was a nominee but didn't make the final cut...too bad...I recommend it..
