Family Fiction Magazine announced the results of their 2011 Reader’s Choice Awards in their May-June 2011 issue. There are some wonderful authors, books, and movies in this years results. Congrats to everyone who made the list.

And a HUGE congratulations goes out to the young adult authors who made the list, especially our own Melanie Dickerson and Jill Williamson. Melanie came in fourth on the favorite young adult authors list. Jill came in fourth on the favorite speculative fiction authors list. And both Melanie and Jill’s novels made the best book trailer list with The Healer’s Apprentice trailer coming in second and the To Darkness Fled book trailer taking fifth. (Click on the book titles to watch each trailer on YouTube.)

Three of the Family Fiction categories are listed below. Note the other YA authors that are on the lists: Jenny B. Jones, Melanie Carlson, Bryan Davis, Robert Liparulo, Ted Dekker, and Donita K. Paul. If you haven’t read books by these authors, you must check them out. Ask your local library or bookstore if they carry these authors, find them online, or look through Novel Teen’s reviews to see what we had to say. And you can always click on any book cover on our blog to be linked to the novel on Amazon.com.
