I'll second Remains of the Day. I think were pushing the definition of "Romance", but that's fine by me.
I'd like to third "Remains of the Day."

I'll also second Outlander; I've had like half of it read for ages now, and it would give me the encouragement to finish it.

I'll vote for Jane Eyre. The most recent Masterpiece Theater version is being rebroadcast on a local PBS station, and I've already started re-reading it.

I'd second either of these, if I could find them in ebook format in the UK.

This is the Mobileread Book Club. It makes sense to only nominate books widely available in ebook form.

We're not voting yet, only nominating. Jane Eyre has reached three nominations and doesn't need any more. You can vote for it once the list for nominating has finished and the poll thread set up.

Already been done?

I suppose there must be some reason not to do Pride and Prejudice.

I'll nominate A Room With A View, by E. M. Forster.

From Wikipedia:

"A Room with a View is a 1908 novel by English writer E. M. Forster, about a young woman in the repressed culture of Edwardian England. Set in Italy and England, the story is both a romance and a critique of English society at the beginning of the 20th century."

You say that... but there are already like 5 times as many nominations for this category than we got for Horror genre... so apparently it is a very popular genre.

This moved fast, so I am quickly adding what I see that has been nominated. I need to finished adding the blurbs and do searches for links to the ebooks.

Please let me know of any errors or corrections needed.

NOTE: Please check if the book you would like is available to your geographic location, in the format you want, and at a purchase price acceptable to you.

See post #53 for the update.
