I didn't see the finalist list when I heard the news.

I adore Angie Estes's work. I hate the fact that only one can win, while in other years books have won that don't interest me at all.

Even as Angie Estes is deserving, and greatly under noticed, Armantrout also is deserving. I'm pleased Armantrout won, and I'm disapointed Estes lost.
