It bothers me that some of the books nominated for this list aren't horror--The Outsider, by King is an example. This book is a fine mystery/thriller--and won that category in this year's Reader's Choice Awards. It's a problem in most lists--folks list and vote for things they haven't read or researched, but an author who is popular in a particular genre gets promoted.
