I've thought of two new possible ideas so far for February.
The first is 'May You Live in Interesting Times'. It's an old Chinese curse that's pertinent in the times we're living in. For a topic, it could be about books set in particularly 'interesting' times- wars, plagues, uprisings, catastrophes, revolutions, etc., or maybe circumstances of a smaller scope that still nevertheless majorly affect the characters of the story.
The second is 'In Sickness and in Health'. This one would have a dual meaning. This topic could inspire nominations that have to do with sickness (and/or health) whether in only an individual or in a larger group, or it could inspire nominations that have to do with weddings, vows or other lifelong commitments.
