I nominate The One-in-a-Million Boy by Monica Wood. It is a story about legacies, moving on after grief, and how we face life as we grow old and approach death (including building new friendships and reconciling our regrets).

I will third The Stone Angel and The Remorseful Day.
I would love to see The Calculating Stars get a third too. It is a really great book that deals with sexism, racism, and the survival of humanity. |

It’s a shame, I would have liked to see it get through, Dazrin. But I have no tickets left.

Dazrin, look on the bright side: by not being fully nominated you get to put it forward again ... March? (Yes, I have Monty Python music rattling around in my head as I type this.)
(The book won't actually get my vote, but given my response to the book, it's sure to spark a lot of conversation .) |
