Let's give Modern Literature a go. It just needs two more nods to be accepted. It's a good category. And it gets us reading more recent works instead of the older works that (in a lot of cases) just don't work any more.

Just one more nod for Modern Literature and it's a go. It's an open category. It means that we get to read more current books. So if you have a big TBR pile that has books in it that are 10 years or younger, this is the category for you. You get to combine a TBR read with a bookclub selection.

What - no Splatterpunk?
Just for the hell of it - because I still have one nomination left, I'm going to nominate Horror. I love Horror even if writers aren't great at giving me a scare. I just love that lush velvety darkness. Gimme some! Anyone with remaining votes that wants to come over to the dark side? |
