Grand Master Reading Challenge Allie The GMRC April Review Poll is closed and the winner is Allie! Her excellent review of the classic, To Your Scattered Bodies Go by Philip José Farmer, is her 4th GMRC review and her 69th(!) book review overall on WWEnd. Thanks, Allie, for your support! Check her profile page to see her other reviews and be sure to visit her blog for more great sci-fi and fantasy.

For the win, Allie will receive a GMRC T-shirt, a GMRC button and a set of commemorative WWEnd Hugo Award bookmarks as well as her choice of books from the WWEnd bookshelf. Runners up will be getting a button and a set of bookmarks in the mail.

After 4 months we have 4 different winners. YOU could be next, so jump in with your own reviews – there are still more prizes to be won and there is plenty of time to get in your reviews for May.

I like to end these posts with a call to arms: "Tell your friends about the GMRC!" Well, apparently you’ve been doing just that! We’re up to 116 participants, 285 books read and 100 reviews. Huzzah! Well done, people. Well done. So, how high can we dive theose numbers from here? With only 12 books to read the GMRC is a challenge that you can easily catch up on if you miss the start but I suspect the law of diminishing returns will start kicking in all too soon. Might be a bit too steep to read 2 books a month so let everyone know it’s not too late to sign up… before it does become too late!

Thanks, everyone! There are so many great GMRC reviews being posted, too! The reading challenge has been really fun so far, and I’m looking forward to seeing what everyone will review in the coming months :).
