ALL Book Club: March '12

[Drama]

Sorry if Game of thrones is chosen i wont be able to read it. Beyond my limits

I'd start reading anything, if it was something that bored me then I would give up on it though, which I don't tend to do normally. I'll give anything a go though.

I'd go for anything except some that disturb me.

She's not being a snob, she just can't do graphic content. She abandoned Lolita for the same reason.

I really don't mind but for the sake of suggesting something..

Slaughterhouse 5 - Kurt Vonnegut

Its quite short, a cult classic. I've read it but think I probably need to read it again sometime as it went over my head the first time.

It's funny, because this was something I thought of nominating for March. I approve.

As for my nomination.. I'll get back to you guys.

 

[The Good Citizen]

No worries, picking the book is the best part!

 

[Drama]

I nominate Sophia's world by Jostein Gaarder

 

[The Good Citizen]

Ah great choice! I've read it a couple of times but for some reason not quite finished it, its on the shelf too

 

[Drama]

would you like to finish it this time?

---

Now that you said it's great, I want to read it even more

 

[SophiaGrace]

Okay so GOT is off the table. Darn.

What're our choices then?

 

[Drama]

You can choose it if you want. I'll just not read it

 

[Drama]

im no longer a part of the ALL book club.

 

[SophiaGrace]

... what?

 

[flaneur]

As of now, the nominations are A Game of Thrones and Slaughterhouse Five. I messaged the people who recently expressed interest in the club and will wait to see if they would like to nominate any books.

 

[flaneur]

Factotum has nominated The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie by Muriel Spark.

---

Kaetic has nominated The Gods of Gotham by Lyndsay Faye and said she will read just about anything we choose.

Final Nominations:

-A Game of Thrones
-Slaughterhouse Five
-The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie
-The Gods of Gotham

---

After discussing it with Soph, we have decided to keep the voting in this thread and not to allow voting for one's own nomination this time.

 

[SophiaGrace]

Slaughterhouse 5

*puts the slip of paper in the voting box*

 

[The Good Citizen]

1 A Game of Thrones
2 Slaughterhouse Five
3 The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie
4 The Gods of Gotham

I've read 2 and 3 but 3 quite recently so any of the others will do me fine. But I'll say 2.

 

[Factotum]

I wouldnt mind reading THE PRIME OF MISS JEAN BRODIE. I was planning to read it next . But SLAUGHTERHOUSE 5 is also fine by me. that is my second choice.

 

[flaneur]

We have a winner.
