I tend to agree. The hoops to jump through are getting smaller and the reasons are becoming sillier.

While I understand this is an international group and there are things like geo-restrictions and availability problems, I'm finding myself less and less willing to participate. This month's book was available from Amazon and I am interested in reading it. If I have to check on whether the book I nominate next month is available *worldwide* before it's accepted, then I'll probably not nominate. If I really don't have to check, then why are we doing this?

I'm hoping we aren't getting into rules for rules sake.
