hum, can i bring up Sheherazade's nomination again? coz i'm reading Love in the Time of Cholera right now (see how much being on this forum has already changed my life?!?!) and i think it's great :)

New to this too.

Since I'm reading it now:

Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky

From what I can gather in the searches it was nominated for January, but I can't seem to find out if it won. If not then I nominate it.
