That is one of the downsides to nominating more famous books/authors: more people are likely to have read them. There's only two in this month's list that I've read before. Then there's 1632 that I was planning on reading anyway, eventually, so I didn't vote for that. Several of the books are quite similar in general concept (finding new lives in the past*), so of those I picked two that stuck out as most appealing to me at the time they were nominated.

* I find it curious that the only book in the list that looks forward in time was written in 1895.
