The only winner that I called was WALL-E but at least with everything where I read the nominees it was something I enjoyed. I still haven't gotten around to reading The Graveyard Book yet and I definitely won't be taking it along as vacation reading; it's just too short for that.

Congratulations to all the winners and I'll be covering them all in turn soon enough.
