July 2022-Nominations
First ever nomination :)The Children of Red Peak has been on my radar for sometime and it's about a cult.
Sounds like a fun topic for July! I'd like to nominate:Seed by Ania Ahlborn
Come Closer by Sara Gran
The Doctor's Demons by Maria Abrams
I nominate Song of Kali by Dan Simmons.
Calcutta: a monstrous city of immense slums, disease and misery, is clasped in the foetid embrace of an ancient cult. At its decaying core is the Goddess Kali: the dark mother of pain, four-armed and eternal, her song the sound of death and destruction. Robert Luczak has been hired by Harper's to find a noted Indian poet who has reappeared, under strange circumstances, years after he was thought dead. But nothing is simple in Calcutta and Lucsak's routine assignment turns into a nightmare when he learns that the poet is rumoured to have been brought back to life in a bloody and grisly ceremony of human sacrifice.
Sounds like a cool theme! :)I will nominate:

Lastly, if you like someone else's nomination give it a +1. Remember, the more noms a book gets, the more likely it will be to make it to the final poll.
