Usually I miss the vote completely, but thanks to Nyssa's reminder, I was first!

Seemed like a good time to take another shot at participating in MRBC.

HomeInMyShoes · 03-04-2013, 11:47 AM

I voted. I should be done my reading list by October so I voted for what I deemed fun topics since I'll probably be a little beaten down by elbow-patch books.

Glad to help! Hope you decide to rejoin.

I've voted and I hope one of my choices does win.

We all hope one of our choices wins, or else we wouldn't bother voting!

You kill me Jon. Good Luck! Hopefully, the winner will be something we both like.

What I'm meaning is that what I didn't vote for can lose and one of what I did vote for can win.

So far I'm on my own for Short Stories and Planes Trains and Automobiles (and boats), but I'm with the leaders in Fantasy, Young Adult and Mythology.

Asawi · 03-04-2013, 12:47 PM

I'm with you on Short Stories.
If I had had only one vote it would have been Science, but I did vote for few more now that I could.

I see your point!

Synamon · 03-04-2013, 03:34 PM

I'm in for short stories, that would be a great category.

JSWolf · 03-04-2013, 04:07 PM

Before you vote for Patricia Clark Memorial Library, think about where you live. If you live in a life+70 country (such as the US), not all of the eBook are available legally to you. You have to know which are legal before you nominate and also before you download.

Billi · 03-04-2013, 04:14 PM

Ouch, even with this little limitation there are sooo many books available in the MobileRead library that I'm sure we won't be short of interesting nominations.

But for me it's better not to think about where I'm living - I am afraid you all don't want to read one of the many great German books available!

HomeInMyShoes · 03-05-2013, 03:32 PM

Five-way tie, five-way tie, five-way tie!!!

Well, it's not that yet, but it's close.
