I will nominate Giovanni's Room by James Baldwin hopefully for February, which is Black History month in the U.S.
I'll also nominate The Hamlet by William Faulkner.
I'm sorry I've either read or am very uninterested in all the books mentioned above! (I have found that I can't stomach books about addiction)

Can I withdraw my vote for HAPPY? I’ve liked other books by this author but this one is a dystopian novel that sounds… well, I wouldn’t read it.
