I am very serious about this in my budget. If I had not been able to get Halifax at the library, I would not have voted for it. On the same note, if I hadn't gotten an ARC copy of Radium Girls, which has been out for a few years, I would not have been reading that one either.
I appreciate the rule/reg whatever as is. I also agree with others that homework is required on this. (This is also why most of my nominations have been books that are free).
