Contest update. I'm moving into phase two of the book contest, the purchasing phase. I have 2 books in hand and one in the mail (I think--I had to order it from a small shop in England). My plan at this point is to get the first five and read them and pick a round one finalist, then get the remainder and do the same. This way I won't have to compare all of the books to each other. I'll try to review each one as I read it though.
