And I seconded it. I certainly didn't do so expecting that we would be suggesting a book of a religious nature, and personally I probably wouldn't be interested in reading that.
However, if Jon has become more concerned about reading a book with a Christmas theme since he read "A Christmas Carol", then I am in agreement with fantasyfan that I shall not object if others agree it should be deleted from the list of categories.
