So yes, the Hugo awards are not about which book is best and deserves to win, but instead about which books are more popular and that means some books win that don't even deserve to be nominated.
I have to say that The Graveyard Book was much better than The Hunger Games... I say that because I actually like one, and not the other...

Also I am a huge fan of Neil Gaiman's work, and actually do think that all his books are actually that good.

But that is just my opinion, feel free to disagree.
Do not feel free to say I am not allowed to have my opinion.
