With categories, that's much less likely to be an issue.

Well, if Tom/everyone really likes this "Fiction" idea, we could do a hybrid, something like say half the year "Fiction" and half the year with other categories, and maybe switch back and forth from Fiction to another category month to month. And if people are still worried about older books, we could make some of the Fiction months "Modern Fiction".
