I think most people found the "in the MR library" requirement too restrictive. Go back and re-read the previous months if you don't recall those discussions. Basically now we are going to say you can nominate it if:

1. It fits in the genre of the month.
2. It is available as an ebook.

If a book doesn't meet either of those two well I am sure someone will bring it up in the nomination thread. Heck, that is the point of the nomination thread too.

If we just want to call it Mystery and take off the word Crime I am ok with that.

Also, in regards to your SF/Fantasy being to similar I think some books will fit into both, and that's fine. Your list has/had SF/Fantasy twice, so I think having 1 month for each still gives us two months of those types of books.

I personally think that SF, Fantasy and Classic seemed to be the most popular genre's during the last year we have been doing this. So, that gives us 4 months for these popular categories.
