What do you think about these figures? Which numbers will change – and why?
I am looking forward to your suggestions! 🙂
My train of thoughts on... 
I predict the number of voters will continue to rise. I think the number of categories is now about right so that every reader has at least one to vote on!
The number of voters/votes will perhaps be 300-400 K higher than in 2013. I also agree on the number of categories. It seems like they have found a number that seems appropriate.
My only hope is that we have read at least two 2014 winners. 😉
I voted in 2013 but my votes weren’t for the winning books! Maybe 2014 will be our year 😉
Same here. This time we’ll make it! 😉
