To no one's surprise who's been watching the vote, undoubtedly, Our Man in Havana by Graham Greene is far and away the winner this month. So let's all grab a copy and get reading!

You're going to have to travel to Canada to get that book, Tom. And it's expensive at $13.39 Our Man in Havana. But it does accept coupons. And that's Canadian $$, which are only about .83 of US ones right now.

However, it's one of the reasons I'm probably not participating this month.

Well Tom, you can get a new hardback from Amazon for as little as $284.16.

When I follow your link, the book is $8.27 at Amazon.com, presumably because I have a Cdn IP address.

(Amazon have left an important 'with' out of the title, but it is the complete book)
^Here are the Amazon Canada and UK listings for it for those who might have missed them. And just to finish out the list now that it's won, here's the Amazon Australia listing.

I'm probably going to listen to the audiobook as soon as I finish the one I'm currently on, and that is available in the US too if anyone's interested. Here are the links - Audible US - Audible UK

That's true, but I was surprised at second place. The Perry Mason went from almost last place in the beginning to our second-chance month contender by the end.

That's what I'll be reading, as no ebook of Our Man in Havana appears to be available for U.S. readers.

Well, but you could take a very quick trip north? We don't mind, tourists are always welcome, even if they only come for a few minutes.

I had the pleasure of visiting a Victoria, BC for a day. I'd love to see the rest of Canada if I ever get the chance.
