This is an interesting slate! I was also hoping to see what AnotherCat might nominate (and what anyone else might nominate for that matter), but still the choices this month are great.

One thing I noticed is that every single nomination has a distinct country or country group. Bookworm_Girl, I also noticed each of your nominations is by an author that is connected to England but also has other country ties, which is an interesting coincidence unless you were going for that theme.

Another thing I noticed is that this might be the most diverse group of nominations we've ever had in regards to years. Not only do we have seven different decades represented, but we also have an astounding six different centuries represented!

Glad you enjoyed the search! I admit I found it difficult to find anything I wanted to nominate for the 'secondary job' aspect of the topic even though I tried, but the night aspect gave me plenty of different words and themes to consider.

I was glad for your nomination since it made it easy to decide which three to nominate of the four I was still considering. It is very interesting we both though of Keats for this month though; maybe he just has a very moonlit quality!
