Tough choices for me this month. I don't think there's a single book on the list I dislike the thought of reading, but I forced myself to limit my votes to half+1. Though the internal fight around that +1 was a close call.

The Riddle of the Labyrinth it is; it will be only our third nonfiction selection.

I’m looking forward to a nonfiction book. It’s available in both ebook and audiobook for Scribd members.

Seems to be a very interesting book. I also look forward to a non-fiction choice. I note that it is on sale in the Kindle UK store, so I won’t have to worry about getting a library copy.
