As the author of the best review of September's selection, 1862: A Novel, geneg has earned the opportunity to suggest the Book of the Month for November:

I just selected the one prior to this one. Can you pass the choice on to the next best reviewer?

You can use any method you like to produce a pick (ask around, make a poll, roll a die) but it's your responsibility now. Mwah-ha-haaa

Alas geneg! -- it was just you and I that wrote reviews and I just picked October selection.

Oh go ahead -- you earned it!
Here's a couple of completely unsolicited ideas:
Ellen Foster by Kaye Gibbons - about foster kids in the south, this was an Oprah book
The Between by Tananarive Due - southern horror set in Florida and Africa
Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe by Fannie Flagg - fun chick lit
the Blue Place by Nicola Griffith - the art scene and serial killers in Atlanta
The Dying Crapshooter's Blues by David Fulmer - historical fiction and gambling in Atlanta
Rampart Street by David Fulmer - layers a major knowledge of jazz music, the historical setting of early New Orleans, and a troubled French-Creole investigator into mystery novels with a distinct and fascinating tone. a recently overlooked novel.
(* tried to fix flags - they're still not all working)

Okay. Y'all asked for it. The book for November is Ray by Barry Hannah.

I liked and agreed with your review geneg -- mine is on LT. I agree with you re: 'modern' fiction except as usual I am more snarky and judgemental than you. Novels like Ray I equate with abstract art and the Emperor's New Clothes.
I guess we have a hiatus in December, but I picked Tobacco Road for January -- hope you'll join me in reading it -- because I know no one else will ;)
