Dawn (dawnv) | 4058 comments Please nominate your choice for the August BOM (Book of the Month) nominations

The Guidelines
1. Each member can make two suggestions but one will need to be YA and the other can be UF/PNR
2. The nomination should be either the first or second book in a series
3. Please give both the title and author when suggesting or use the link so I can make sure the correct book is chosen

I'm going to read Originally Human (World of Lupi, #1.5) by Eileen Wilks and I'm planning to get back, although August and September are already almost booked. I never planned my readings before... yes, we shall see Chicken Little running like a deranged kid screaming "The sky is falling! The sky is falling!"

I second


message 29: by Normalene (new)

Normalene | 3 comments The Devil You Know by Mike Carey - urban fantasy about an exorcist, Felix Castor and his frenemies. Its dark and gritty and I absolutely loved it and all the others in the series. Its out in pb so its easy to find although he's British so you have to wait forever for the new ones to make it across the ocean. I usually recommend it to fans of the Harry Dresden series.The Devil You Know

Mike | 353 comments Nightlife by Rob Thurman and for YA Alone (The Girl in the Box, #1) by Robert J. Crane .

This appears to be contemporary YA would you say that is true? If so do you have another book in mind we like to keep everything in this group about UF or PNR
Thanks
