How dare you!!

But, if "you can use your 3 nominations anyway you want", someone might use them to nom, 2nd and 3rd their own choice to get it to the voting phase.
I don't think that is what is intended.

For those of a "lawyerly disposition", it is one nomination per book .

I'd have to agree with Harry. The idea is that 3 people think the book is worthy of being added to the poll for the month.

I third "Romancing Mr. Bridgerton by Julia Quinn" - we need some more 'romance novels' on the list.

I read a bit form an excerpt here, and it sounded entertaining enough that I might buy it anyway

I'll give a third to Naked In Death by J.D. Robb so we can move onto the voting.

Romancing Mr. Bridgerton by Julia Quinn

I third Romancing Mr. Bridgerton by Julia Quinn. I have it, I love it, and I usually read the whole Bridgerton series once a year.

Oops!

To make up for it, here is the description for His Robot Girlfriend. From Smashwords:

Quote:
Mike Smith's life was crap, living all alone, years after his wife had died and his children had grown up and moved away. Then he saw the commercial for the Daffodil. Far more than other robots, the Daffodil could become anything and everything he wanted it to be. Mike's life is about to change.
