Every one wants an award, no? While the American Library Association offers a number of awards for books of distinction (and audiobooks of distinction), sometimes it’s interesting to see who is getting nods from other associations.

The Audiobook Publishers Association offers up the Audies each year, and they just released their list of nominees. It’s interesting to see who is nominated — and nominated multiple times — within each category. Katherine Kellgren’s performances on LA Meyer’s Bloody Jack series were nominated not once, but TWICE, in TWO categories.

Bonus: you can listen to a lengthy snippet of these titles by clicking on the little stereo symbol at the end of each title’s short description. I know my “to listen to” list just exploded. I’ve listened to so few of these titles (ahem, perhaps only one — The Help) but I am familiar with a few of the readers.

Are any of your favorites on there? Anyone you’re rooting for to win?
