J. K. Rowling was the runaway favorite in this year's Reader's Choice Contest, attracting more that 3 times the votes of any other author. Voters from 5 to 40 celebrated her Harry Potter books as "exciting, imaginative and truly enjoyable."
Here are some sample voter comments:
"She really takes me inside the story and gives me a good idea what is going on. She captures your attention from the beginning all the way to the end."
"It seems like you are actually in the book. You lose yourself."
"She tells a good story and thinks up weird but cool words."
" I like her cliffhangers at the end of chapters"
"It's the first book I liked enough to finish."
