I'll nominate yet another book that's sure to please... Let's have a round of applause for...The Book of Fate by Brad Meltzer. Reading the description may make you want to read it now instead of waiting for it to win.

That doesn't fit into this month's theme at all. It sounds like a common, garden-variety thriller.

Vandy, I would love for you to continue keeping track of the nominations, as long as you continue to want to.
On a separate note, it is much easier to double-check someone's work than to do the original work. That said, there are now four votes each for Ulysses, The Magic Mountain and Don Quixote. Last edited by sun surfer; 06-24-2011 at 07:24 PM. |

I'm most interested in The Magic Mountain, but I doubt I'd be able to get my hands on it, so I'll have to give that a pass.
I recently failed to complete Midnight's Children so I'll just use a single nomination to 5th Midnight's Children. Maybe I can try it again. |

Thomas Mann died in 1955. It is in PD in the life+50 countries such as Canada, Japan and Taiwan. It's not PD in Australia either as only deaths prior to 1955 are in PD. |

Just looking at the list of books this month and noticed that Mr. Rushdie's name is misspelled. Salman Rushdie, not Salmon Rushdie. Not a big deal, but still...
