Jon, in any given month people will always have very good reasons why they can't read a book. Not to worry. I and I think Charlie are just saying that it would be good if people could keep "readability" at the forefront when they nominate and vote. And readable includes price, as well as length and accessibility.
it's just that, for me, a good discussion adds a lot to reading pleasure. I'd love to see slates where all the books seemed interesting and wouldn't break the bank, because then people who perhaps wouldn't have chosen the winner will still find it worthwhile to show up for the discussion.
Ideally, I end up reading books I'd never have considered, but are rewarding. I have to say, though, that I'd probably end up giving a Star Trek novel the miss!
