With my nomination loosing, I decided to change my vote and make it, for the moment at least, a nose to nose race!

I should probably explain why I didn't vote for my own nomination this time - whilst the Marlon James is undoubtedly interesting, it would be a very long book for a busy month like December. Siri Hustvedt deserves her place here too - I was very surprised that none of her books has been selected before.
Ok last 2 folks who voted for Did You Ever Have a Family, which I nominated. It's not going to win, so you are in the driver's sheet, if you change your votes, for what we will read in December. Personally, I'd encourage a change to either What I Loved or Speak!

I have no idea if What I Loved or Speak fill that view but they both sound less bleak! Not to say the A Brief History is a book we should not read, but I just don't want to be that depressed in December!
