I vote for A CORPSE IN THE KORYOThis is a terrific book. I love the whole Inspector O series. It's set in North Korea and gives a great insight into the country. It is written by a former intelligence officer with experience in Asia.

Glad to see that the voting is up. You can vote for two books if you want.
I will add "I'll Find You" to my vote for "Taunting the Dead".
Whoops, meant I'll Find You & Taunting the Dead.
I would like to see more votes for the December group read. I'm happy to keep the voting open another week if people want more time.

Thanks for voting. Remember that you can vote for two books. Seems to be a battle between Taunting the Dead and A Corpse in the Koryo.
Nice to see voting picking up. Thanks.
Only two more days to vote.
If you only voted once, you can vote again.
If you only voted once, you can vote again.
It should be noted that if there is a tie, then I can break the tie with my vote.
We do have a tie folks. Hope more people want to vote or it will be me breaking the tie.
Like I said before, you are allowed to vote for two books.
Okay, I'm going to close the voting for December. Since I have the tie breaking vote between I'll Find You by Nancy Bush and A Corpse in the Koryo by James Church, I'm going to do something unconventional. To tell you the truth, I really want to read Taunting the Dead by Mel Sherratt. So, since I'm voting for Taunting The Dead, I'm creating a three way tie with these books so these books will be our group reads over the next three months. Here is the schedule.
Group Read for December - I'll Find You by Nancy Bush
Group Read for January - A Corpse in the Koryo by James Church,
Group Read for February - Taunting The Dead by Mel Sherratt
I really wanted to do this since there was interest in reading all three books. In the end, the point is to make everyone happy here.
So, for the next three months, we don't have to worry about voting and have more new members come in and increase the voting for March.

Yay! Excellent decision. Looking forward to them.

Thanks. Just an effort to make everyone happy. We can be different from other groups.
I am wondering if the upcoming holiday season has caused some of the members to not vote this time. Can be a very busy and stressful time for many. I note several groups opted to skip December BOTM. I like having it as I plan to continue to read through the holidays.
I didn't think of that so you may be right. In any case, we won't be voting for any books for the next three months so it will be a nice break.
Gives me a chance to read and be introduced to more to authors,to me.I have never read any books by James Church or Mel Skerratt.

It could be to Christine,that my reading tastes are all over the map for me at the moment.I have an Officer and a Spy,and then on the back burner,I also have on the go,Lucrezia Borgia,DoubleIndemnity,Lolita,The War of the Roses(from the movie with Michael Douglas Kathleen Turner) to a sci fi dystopian,The Unit.
Marian, you have become schizophrenic!!!!!!!!
You think so?..I blame it all on Goodreads:))))So there..lol!Waiting in the wings for me to read is..Greg Iles book..Natchez Burning

Its a big big book Christine..Im scared to see just how many pages are in this brute..BUT..its supposed to be really good:)Are you going to read this one or have you already read it Christine?
Marian wrote: "I also want to read Michael Connelly newsest work and also David Baladacci as well."I hear Connelley's is excellent. Don't know about Baldacci's.

No, Marian, I have not read Iles at all. He is in the 17 story high to read pile. (-:
Baldacci's new one is called "The Escape" its a #3 in a series at the moment.

I hear ya Christine:)Im also waiting up for an old movie from back when...The Third Man...from the library.It has Orson Wells and Trevor Howard.I want to see this movie.
John Puller.If not for Goodreads, I would still be reading all Baldacci. My first 3 postretirement reads were his. I then decided I could easily stay in the rut or branch out. I joined Goodreads and have never looked back. I do want to get to Split Second, first in King and Maxwell series in 2015.
Have you ever read Baldacci's book The Lottery Winner?(I think ithats what its called)its been awhile since I read that one.Heck,all of his books are great!!

Mary Higgins Clark wrote a book with that title, but not Baldacci. Maybe "The Winner"? That one is on my list.
