So, 2011... it's been quite a year.
We want to thank all you fabulous followers and readers for sticking with us despite our sporadic posting (and by our I mostly meant me, April).
April's Top 11 Reads of 2011 (Regardless of when they were published, and in no particular order):
*Disclaimer* Super official categories were used and April most definitely did not make them up at the top of her head. And top 11 reads are subject to change since April probably forgot some.

4. Will Grayson, Will Grayson by John Green and David Levithan (Funniest)
