I'll second The Devil in the White City. I've been wanting to read this for ages but keep putting it off.

I’m sorry I’m late to the party. I had an unplanned project come up at work. The list of nominations is really good. It is interesting that both book clubs are doing similar topics this month of Revolution and Freedom.
It looks like some people might have tickets left. I will nominate The Soldier’s Song By Alan Monaghan. It was less than $10 in all the major currencies: $9.49 US, $9.99 CDN, $9.99 AU and £3.99 UK. From Amazon: Quote:

I second The Soldier’s Song By Alan Monaghan. Sounds interesting, and I see there are two follow-on books.

I looked through several reviews on GR and didn't see anyone complaining about cliff-hangers or anything of that sort. From what I saw the three books relate to three parts of the main protagonist's life, so three stories rather than just one (beyond the fact that it's the same protagonist). So I'm not too worried about the first of a trilogy aspect.

Enough, Jon. You pointed out that it's part of a trilogy. The voting will decide what we read. I am NOT going to allow quibbles about if it's a series or where in a series it is.

I saw today that Parable of the Sower just made it to the NYT best-seller list (13th and could keep rising). I suppose that explains the popularity at your library, Charlie.

That's certainly an indicator. And something we had hoped to avoid in the NLBC, given that not everyone can afford to buy their books for this. But it does happen.
