IMHO, given that we just read a period piece that wasn't all that good, I would like to stay away from period pieces. Two period pieces in a row is not doing the book club any favors. The problem (as I see it) is that some of the books we get nominated that are about a period or a place don't work. Lets take the last book and the book we had for mysteries that was about Africa and both failed big time. They weren't abount what they should have been about. There were very wishy washy.

So let's try to get a book that's about what it should be about and not say it's about XYZ and we get ABC instead.
