The best spoken word album category often includes some interesting nominees. This year is no different. Joan Rivers has gotten a posthumous nod for her book, Diary of a Mad Diva.

Rivers' book, which came out in July, skewers no less than 135 celebrities.

"Just jokes, silly jokes," she told USA TODAY at the time.

Rivers died on Sept. 4 in New York City.

The nominations include poetry, audio books and storytelling, and cover a range of subjects.
