Hi PtP - congrats on the marriage! Glad to have you join in whenever you can.

Alright everyone, seems like things are wrapping up in the lead-up to the cycle changeover. Categories are chosen and we'll try the bonus votes out for a few months then revisit it to decide its fate.

Sorting the categories we chose is simple enough. Four are repeat categories and so can go in the same months as last cycle. That leaves July and March for Journey around the World and Non-Fiction. The two non-fiction categories (Non-Fiction and Biographies & Memoirs) shouldn't be too close, so Non-Fiction will go to March leaving Journey for July, which is also great in that I needn't update the terrific countries list HIMS made before we have it.

Here's the schedule for the 12 months:

July 2015- Journey around the World
August 2015- Rotating
September 2015- Biographies & Memoirs
October 2015- Rotating
November 2015- Region
December 2015- Rotating
January 2016- Poetry
February 2016- Rotating
March 2016- Non-Fiction
April 2016- Rotating
May 2016- Time Period
June 2016- Rotating

Sound like a plan? I'm looking forward to another year of enjoyable and horizon-broadening reading and discussion with all of you!
