I totally missed that this poll is closed.

Killing Floor by Lee Child takes the win.

I will open the discussion thread on the 20th.

Well it depends on whether you have already read it or not. If yes then you don't get to experience a new book this month, if no then read and enjoy and see what others think.

Yeah -- I just finished it last night. *Great* book! But I want to discuss it *now*, not later!! I'll have to write down my thoughts on my computer, and save them for later. Cuz I'm about to go buy the next book in the series, and I'll have forgotten the details on this one, by then. Very enjoyable!

(assuming ya like a wee bit of blood and gore with your murder mystery)

Finally, the motto ... May the best book win ... came true.

Killing Floor is a very good read. Lee Child manages to hold us from the beginning all the way to the end.

I will need to put the next book in the series on my reader sometime next week.
