The Thirty-Nine Steps by John Buchan has a three vote lead! If it wins, it will be the first time since I began participating in the Book Club thread that the book I voted for won!

Go Thirty-Nine Steps!
Wow, look at that it IS in the lead....and short too...probably not as short as "The Machine Stops" but hey... I might even have time to work it in if it's short...and free...

That's why I avoid that thread.
Agreed. Normally baby oil is associated with good things, but that cat-o-nine-tails business is just over-the-top!

Go Thirty Nine Steps!

Okay, this seems like fun, I'm in! Give me a break from finishing up Dracula, at any rate.

Note to self: Don't pick passively written novel for first e-book next time.

Don't d/l your votes before their counted, or the fat lady sings, or something like that.
