2011 Audie Award Nominations
They might not receive as much attention as The Oscars, but each year The Audies highlight the best in audiobooks from the previous year. The Audies feature 30 categories, including Biography/Memoir, Fiction, History, Humor, Solo Narration, and Original Work. The awards will be announced at the Audies Gala on May 24, 2011, but you probably won't see the winners strutting down the red carpet on television.
There are some strong contenders this year, including the titles listed below. Why not branch out from your usual audiobook selections and try one of these quality guaranteed nominees?
