I am new to this and just read that I could not vote until I had made 10 posts. If I could, I would vote for Death Comes to Pemberly.

Hello Garnie,

welcome to the forum!

If I am not mistaken, you can vote on the book of the month, but need 10 posts to be able to nominate a book youself.

I have posted the topic to vote for the March 2012 book of the month.

Since there were only two nominations, I also added my own nomination The Wedding Gift by Marlen Suyapa Bodden.

Please note, several nominations were ignored for not meeting the guidelines set in the OP: You must have 10 posts to make a nomination and the book must have a reasonable Amazon sales rank. This is to prevent abuse of the nomination system by authors themselves and professional book promoters.

This may be a bit of a silly question but where on Amazon can you find the sales rank for a book?
