Great idea.
And could I make a poll like this.

I can never find books with LGBTQ+ representation. I mean, I have read a few, but it's very difficult to find them, they tend not to be front and centre in bookshops for some unknown reason :eusa-think: so it might be nice to have it as the next genre as it would be nice to get some more recommendations and get some more representation!!!

I agree. I am just reading such a book, The Scapegracers by Hannah Abigail Clarke and enjoy it.

I will change my vote. :)

^ That's an awesome book and the sequel has already been announced, so maybe we could include it? I voted on LGBTQ+ too, glad to see it getting traction :)

As we already have read Thrillers/suspense/Mystery books in November, we will read LGBTQ+ books this month.
