I fourth Fifth Business and The Grapes of Wrath.
That's three votes - do I have a fourth? If so, I'll second A Separate Peace. |

I've run out, but I love A Separate Peace and would support it. I suppose I don't really need to read it again though.

Thank you! I'm a bit hazy about the rules, as you can tell.

I was looking at Rabbit, Run as a potential nomination along with A Visit from the Goon Squad. Again - run out of nominations.
Looks like some great books being put up for nomination this month - some modern literature as well as some American classics. |

Well, I'm on board for Canada/US.
I'm nominating: Finnie Walsh by Steven Galloway. A Canadian topic by a Canadian author. I've read two other Galloway novels and both were very good. |

There's about a half day left for nominations.
This month is producing some really fantastic nominations. I'd support Rabbit, Run and Finnie Walsh if I had any more votes left. ETA - And, here it is half a day later and nominations are now closed with seven fully nominated books. The poll will be up shortly. Last edited by sun surfer; 02-05-2013 at 03:37 AM. |
