Now that our read for August has been decided, it's time for everyone to nominate a book for our September 2017 read.

We are doing something a little different for 2017 monthly reads. Starting with January's read we are working our way backward in publication years :)

So - nominate a crime/mystery/thriller/suspense book which was published in 2008 for our September read. True crime or cosy mysteries are included in this :)

NOTE: Only the beginning of a series (if a series) please :)

This thread will be open until 10th August, then our nominations will go to the vote:) Good luck and have fun!

Authors and publishers, please don't nominate your own work!

According to my googling, it was first published in 2008. It is on my TBR as well, so would be happy to go with this one, but I will look to see if there is another I can nominate :)

Kerri_M | 785 comments Will nominate An Expert in Murder by Nicola Upson

An Expert in Murder (Josephine Tey, #1) by Nicola Upson

Because I liked Josephine Tey books, so thought it was worth a try.
