Turnstone Press is proud to have not one, not two, but three of its books in the running for On the Same Page: Manitoba Reads.

On the Same Page is an annual campaign supported by the Winnipeg Foundation through the Winnipeg Public Library to get all Manitoban's reading the same book. To encourage public participation and discussion a public vote is underway to select the one and only title that will be touted as the book every Manitoban should read.

Without further ado here are Turnstone's three finalists for On the Same Page:

An Ordinary  Decent Criminal by Michael Van Rooy

Beautiful Girl Thumb by Melissa Steele

Dead of  Midnight by Catherine Hunter

An Ordinary Decent Criminal by Michael Van Rooy
