This month's title: "Into Thin Air: A Personal Account of the Mt. Everest Disaster" by Jon Krakauer 

Book description: "A bank of clouds was assembling on the not-so-distant horizon, but journalist-mountaineer Jon Krakauer, standing on the summit of Mt. Everest, saw nothing that 'suggested that a murderous storm was bearing down.' He was wrong. The storm, which claimed five lives and left countless more—including Krakauer's—in guilt-ridden disarray, would also provide the impetus for Krakauer's epic account of the May 1996 disaster."
