Tell us the best book you read last year, and you could...
win a $250 Powell's Card
and two $100 cards for your friends!
Just try our Specials newsletter.
(You only have to try one — but we bet you'll be back for more!)
Your votes will decide who gets to wear this year's coveted Golden Galoshes!
In a year that was riddled with literary scandal, we think the greatest scandal is that the Golden Galoshes ceremony won't be televised live, via satellite, broadcast directly into seventy trillion homes across the globe. Fortunately, we will have a small ceremony around our desks to honor the winner. And Darin, who will be playing his recorder, is instructed to pipe up if the acceptance speeches get too long.
So, tell us: what was the best book you read in 2006? Was it a scathingly true memoir that turned out to be scathingly fictional, or a shockingly original young adult novel that turned out to be someone else's shocking original young adult novel? Far away from all the hubbub and the rumpus of plagiarism and lies, what book inspired you to curl up and ignore the real world tap-tap-tapping at your window? Did you just sit in your favorite easy chair, staring at a blank wall in endless anticipation for the last Harry Potter book, or did you dive into whole stacks of heretofore undiscovered treasures?
Tell us. Oh, please tell us! We really want to know. Enter the contest. Right over there. To the right. Just one little mouse-click away. But don't procrastinate...
