My vote, if i had one, would go for kafka on the beach, have not had a chance to read that one yet.

Perhaps you could come in with your observations as we read it through. (No pun intended).

My copy is winging its way here as we...type...

I went to a bookstore to get it, they said they had it in stock, but of course they didn't. So, I'm going to get 15% off the book when the book store actually does get a copy.

Excellent.

I tried our Waterstones Bookstore and the two libraries I frequent, but I've ordered it quite cheaply from Amazon. I'm tempted to buy quite a few books at the moment as they are having a sale.

Ya, there are a lot of decent Boxing Day sales around this time.

Cosmicomics arrived last week. I would have voted for it, but I want to finish Winter's Tale which I started reading this summer.

OK the store is taking too long so I went and ordered the book online, should get it next week. I might be late joining in, but I'll definitely be reading this one.

I like this book,
