If you go to the polls section you can vote there.http://www.goodreads.com/poll/show/25541...
it's poll # 18 because I can't make it a 'featured' poll.
Emilee's been really busy, as has Kandice I think. But I've just realised as I've completely forgotten (I can barely remember polls for my own groups!) that I can put one up. There you go, go and vote!
Um I'll just throw a nomimnation out there in case this is still open...lol
The Gargoyle
by Andrew davidson
The Hansel and gretel one also sounds good. I'd vote for it too if my library had it... bah. I might see if I can ILL it one day...

I've been reading so much Historical fiction in October I want to move onto some gruesome Japanese crime!"Grotesque is already on my to-read list so it could easily be the one I vote for (however, so is the Hansel & Gretel one...) - but I think I'm more into some weird Japanese stuff right now :-)
Aw thanks for the offer Fiona! But I think I should read the one I have and see if I like the author. I may come back to you on that though! ;)

Haven't read Out, but want to. I didn't know which one to get when choosing - Out or Grotesque. Evidently Out is supposed to be better... oh well.
I have been meaning to read OUT I own it and believe it or not it was recommended to me by Junot Diaz! (he came to our book club at work)

Fiona, have you read Out fits the bill of gruesome Japanese crime (perpetrated by regular people). Not my cup of tea but might be yours (our bookclub was very divided by it).
I will toss a nomination into the ring: Cloudstreet A Novel I love books by Tim Winton and haven't read this one yet.
Yeah vote for Grotesque! I've been reading so much Historical fiction in October I want to move onto some gruesome Japanese crime!
There are actually several really good suggestions this month! I like both Grotesque and The true story of Hansel and Gretel and volume 12 of Whee of Time - but as much as I would like to read the new Wheel of Time, it will have to wait till I have read the first 11 in that series (I've finished 3 so far...). But the other two suggestions are so good that I will refrain from suggesting something else this month.
