Good list, more books for the TBR pile.

Am reading "Innocent," and glad to see it was nominated.

I hope Rupture wins the new blood. I've read that and two of the others on the list. I haven't read any of the others, though I plan to read at least three of the gold shortlist and may read Innocent. These lists are interesting as they have a distinct lack of commercial "usual suspects" about them!
