I nominate Ring Shout by P. Djèlí Clark. I’ve heard so much about this book and author recently.

Not that it matters but this was on the poll just this past December.

William (be2lieve) | 1485 comments FYI. Because neither of these titles got a single second from our over 9000 group members, I have declined to add them to the August poll

Sorry, Hayley, but you can't second your own nomination. And the poll has already been posted. Nothing to stop you from nominating on the September poll.
