J.K. Rowling claimed the Best Fiction prize for her grown-up book 'The Casual Vacancy', with 11,525 votes, proving that critical receptions don't necessarily dictate the opinions of readers.
Gillian Flynn topped the Mystery and Thriller category for her immensely popular third novel 'Gone Girl'; Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter's 'The Long Earth' lead in Science Fiction; and 'Fifty Shades Freed', the third part of the trilogy from E.L. James Grey dominated Romance, receiving over 22,000 votes.
