I've read Never Let Me Go and it's not really a romance. It more dystopian then anything. The It's not really all that good. It's a plodding read at best. The movie version is awful. I was able to finish the book, but I had to stop the movie because I could not finish it.

The movie cannot be compared to the book. The book is more dystopian then romance. So based on the book, it's not really a romance.

Which means it will win this vote. :)

To me it sounds like a Murakami novel where there is always some love and romance in it, but it is not the driver, even when it is front and center I don't call his books romance in the least.

To be honest, I hope it doesn't win as it is not a wonderful book. I read it for a book club and it didn't go over that well. That's not just my opinion. And two others who had seen the movie didn't like the movie.

I've seen the movie, but not read the book (which is why I nominated it here). I actually found the movie really good, however it's paced somewhat slowly and doesn't have the typical dramatic structure that most modern films (especially US films) have. It's also extremely grim material. It's rated quite well on IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes but it's certainly not everyone's cup of tea.

I expect the book would probably be similar because of its very grim dystopia setting.

The book is better than the movie. I was able to read the entire book but not watch the entire movie.

I haven't read or watched Never Let Me Go yet, but I'm curious about Fighting Redemption
by Kate McCarthy, so I'll second that! (Thank you WT Sharpe for the round up)
I'm still reserving my last nomination... I also want to read a good crime book.

I'd like to put forward Echoes by Maeve Binchy

It's one of her earlier works and is quite dark in places. She was really at the height of her writing with this.

This is my first ever nomination so apologies if I haven't quite got the post format right.

^I think you did fine. Welcome to the bookclub.

I am out of nominations or I'd give that a go.

Second Echoes by Maeve Binchy.

Welcome to the book club, Alsicole.

I'm kind on in the mood for a classic. If Jane Eyre wins I'll certainly read it, although the plot reminds me of Bleak House by Charles Dickens which I read fairly recently. In addition, other members have already read it and some have given it five stars and I'm bit sure they'll be in the mood to re-read it. I'm not giving it a nod at this time, but if it wins, I'll certainly vote for it.

Latakia by JF Smith looks interesting, and the hero hails from Richmond, which I assume is Richmond, Virginia since the author is a U.S. citizen. Also, Richmond's not just outside of where my daughter lives and where I'm going today, so I'll give a second to Latakia.

Third Latakia.

Just read the synopsis and it sounds great. I'd be up for reading that too!

I've also read a few M/M romances which I've enjoyed, so I'll give a vote to Tigers and Devils - so that's a third.

I've received a good feedback from Tigers and Devils from my sister (thankfully she didn't spoil the story for me like she usually does) I'm too undecided which book I'd nominate as my 3rd. Leaning in between Jane Eyre and The Plum Tree...

But I'll have to go with Jane Eyre because it's a classic I should've read a long time ago. :2thumbsup
