That was a short month between polls! Are we tired of voting, yet? The early poll is to give a longer lead time for books at OverDrive or other libraries, in response to requests.
We're transitioning to a new book club and there are two important changes that will affect the vote thread and they're going into effect with this poll.
Please don't vote if you won't participate in the discussion. It's no secret that discussions have been anemic of late, which the new book club is intended to address. However, it seems only just that those who will discuss the book get to choose it. We welcome participation at all levels, whether it's to lurk (Hi!), to nominate, or to drop in on the discussion, but we have to ask that you refrain from voting if that will be the end of your participation.
Electioneering is fine and even fun, but please keep it civil and respectful. Focus more on the positive aspects of books rather than on their perceived negatives. It's fine to reference facts such as price or length and even including comments such as, "The Club has already read a book by that author and I'd like to read something new." But please avoid disparaging a nomination and judgmental words in general.
Thanks!
