Voted for most of the categories, as there are so many I would be happy with. In fact, apart from Fantasy, any of them would be good.

When you vote for categories, just remember that the book that won for December, 2012 did so not because it was actually a good book worth reading. It won because it was short. Biographies tend to be long. So keep that in mind when you vote.

If I had only had one vote it would have been for Biography/Memoirs, but with multiple voting I spread my love a bit.
Love being able to give multilple votes! |

I'm really not in sync with everyone for this vote. Biographies/Memoirs was the only category I didn't vote for - and look at it go.

Oooh Mystery/Thriller had a bit of a gallop since I last checked. Go, you good thing, go!

I was pulling for the other contender, Biography/Memoirs (Modern Literature does not seem to have a chance), as that that would have been a great addition to the lineup. On the other hand there should be something for everyone, so Mystery/Thriller would be good as well.

I would certainly love to see a philosophy month and at least one non-fiction month.

I'd join the posse for non-fiction (as long as it's non-biography and non-history), but not for philosophy.

I hope we get at least one "non-fiction" month as well! A non-specified non-fiction month. Will nominated for upcoming selections!
