LoT Book CLub - Book 3 is what?

Snowflake · 08-11-2006, 05:50 PM

Okay, now that I am settling in, unpacking, I'm ready to start reading again.

So has there been a vote/poll/decision on LoT book #3??

Shoot, I just started reading Wind-Up Bird.

However, if we get another selection in the next week or so, I can jump to that one instead. I'm not invested in the Wind-Up Bird, at least not yet.

I think we need to have another poll. I'd like to add TC Boyle's WATER MUSIC to the list.

This was the last poll and results.

Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell 1 4.17%
I, Lucifer by Duncan Glenn 3 12.50%
Devil in the White City by Erik Larsen 4 16.67%
Marley and Me by John Grogan 3 12.50%
Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert 6 25.00%
Howard's End by E.M Forster 2 8.33%
Wind Up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami 5 20.83%

oooh...are we opening the poll again? Because I have another one to add. (New release, not classic.)

Matterhorn Fan · 08-12-2006, 02:59 PM

Well, what is it?

Are the leftovers automatically going on the poll?

I am racing through The Time Traveler's Wife and I HIGHLY recommend it for the club. It's incredible. I know Traci has read it, anyone else?

I'd like to read the TTW too, CP. Another good one is Howard's End- plus, I already have it.

It's one of my all-time favorite books. I LOVE IT. It's one of those books I've bought many, many times as gifts for different people. Her illustrated story The Three Incestuous sisters, is also lovely. Another illustrated story is on its way. I really, really like her artwork.

Here's one of her prints:

EH1812, I just read the description on Amazon and I think it sounds really cool!
