Way back on December 1, 2011, this site began with a post explaining about how we would choose the Best Books of 2011.


That was not only the beginning of this site, but also the beginning of what show more would be called the Nerdy Book Awards.

Nominations and voting takes place in December with winners announced during the last days of December.
