Critical Monkey! Update the fifth! Seven contestants, no waiting!

Man, five months down, seven to go. Seems like an eternity, doesn't it?

Guilt (four reviews)

So we've got three people at the Guilt stage (comin' up on Anger), a few new reviews, and one spankin' new entrant (welcome, Alison!). Looks like a good group. With strong stomachs.

But we've still got seven months to go. Remember, all new reviews between the last update and next months' put you in the running to win a signed copy of Canadian author Mark Rayner's oddball sci-fi epic The Amadeus Net.

So okay ramblers, let's get rambing. Nut up, buttercup, times a'wastin'.
