1.You Were Here. This was the stand out of the month for me. I loved the different points of view and the use of graphics in the book to tell a story. My Review

2. Orphan #8. A close second, this was a very good debut historical fiction novel about a little known time in US history. My Review.

3.Maggot Moon. This was an unexpected charmer. You won't find it topping best seller lists, but that is also what I enjoyed about it. My Review.

4. Trapped. You can start the series with Book 1, Hounded . A great Urban Fantasy series. My Review.

5.Earthly Delights: A Corinna Chapman Mystery . A cozy mystery set in Melbourne with some great characters. My Review.

6.Why Does E=mc2?: (And Why Should We Care?). Not a token non-fiction book for the list, this one was really fascinating! And we all love Prof. Brian Cox :) My Review.

7. The Royal Ranger. You can start this lovely Middle Grade --> Young Adult series with this book. The Ruins of Gorlan: Book 1 (Ranger's Apprentice). My Review.
