And of course we’re thrilled that The Millions gang chose Jonathan Evison’s West of Here (pub. date: February 15), which is the #1 Indie Next pick for February.

    I was stalling on twitter trying to find something to cure my boredom – and BANG – someone I follow tweeted this post. Now, I am not quite as bored. Thanks for posting good material. – Frisbee

    Why yes, I AM the only person in existence not to have read Water for Elephants. That’s my pick. I’m going to read that in 2011!

    I am finally going to read the Steig Larson series, I am dying to read the Adventures of Calvin and Clay, and I am pretty interested to read the Lost Symbol. Even if people say it’s garbage. Who doesn’t like a fast vacation read?
