Grand Master Reading Challenge EmilThe June GMRC Review Poll is now closed and the winner is Emil Jung (Emil) for his excellent review of Deathbird Stories by Harlan Ellison. Emil is our first two-time winner in the poll and has written many fine reviews for WWEnd over the years. Congratulations and well done.

Emil will receive a GMRC T-shirt, a GMRC button and a set of commemorative WWEnd Hugo Award bookmarks as well as his choice of another book from the WWEnd bookshelf. All runners up will be getting a button and a set of bookmarks in the mail. Thanks to all our reviewers!

With 6 months under our belt, the Grand Master Reading Challenge is still forging ahead with no signs of letting up. We’re sitting pretty with 145 participants, up 17 from last month, and went from 353 books read to 419 with an additional 23 reviews taking us to a nice round 150 total. That 150 readers goal seems quite doable now and with your help I’m sure we’ll get there. Tell your friends that it’s not too late to start the challenge – it’s only 12 books in 6 months you know. And if your friends don’t read, well, they’re no friends of mine.

Ooh, I’m reveling. Seriously, I’m just happy to share my views on some really great narratives, and delighted that some members reckon its good enough to deserve their votes.
