Member's Choice:
*Write in your choice.

Due to a lack of nominations for other choices, we will just go with these for the time being. If you would like to add more to any of these lists, you have until Dec. 21st. Add away!

NOTE: I took a lot of these choices from other "Best of 2012" lists.

 

Fixed the double post. Thanks!

These are for 2012, so most of these novels weren't released then. The same for the video games. Sorry for any confusion on that. I'll update it to say 2012.

 

Yes, you can write in your votes for each one if you aren't happy with the choices above. But please vote for each category listed above. And you can include your Member's Choice vote from the previous nomination thread.
