So we put up Lamb instead since it's the best book on the list.

I think more people should vote for Candide as I've read The Eyre Affair three times already

I'm suprised Eyre Affair is in the lead. When I nominated it, there didn't seem to be a lot of interest.

I think I'd heard the name before, but have never read any of his stuff. In checking it out on Amazon though I'm very, very interested and will probably read Eyre in any case.

I read The Egg and I by Betty MacDonald and thought it was hilarious as I pictured some of the situations.
I just found out that one of her neighbors in the story (and some others) was the basis for the Ma and Pa Kettle movies I watched when I was younger (although, denied in the lawsuits). |

Maybe I'll have to read this one too as having grown up on a chicken farm I can likely identify with most of it.... |
