I am closing the voting off for the name of the Group at midday our time in UK
so you have until then to vote for the name we would like our Club to be called
zzzzzzzzzzzzz
Then I will put a poll on re books we want to vote to read
I am going to suggest we have 2 months to read them if that is too long holla!
once the books go up to vote on I can't change or add any as it affects the voting!
so this is your last chance saloon to put down a book to vote on starting at Midday today and ending Monday midday

Democracy is a wonderful thing, but not in book clubs
I've read the Time Traveller's wife, and seen the film, am prepared to re-read it I suppose (if I can find it).
The library doesn't have Figure of Hate so if that wins I'll have to buy it.
I could nominate another book but where does that get us if everyone nominates and votes for their own book?

Well if you are ok with Time Travellers wife
and Snoopysue has ordered that one
and you can get it from the library
then let's just go with that one
and then how about someone else chooses next time
that might be a better arrangement
So I will choose Time travellers wife
lets go with that one
2 months to read it? or a month?

I'm half way through another book at the moment, so two months is fine by me.

Just picked up Time Travellers Wife from the library. I think I'll start on it tonight - the other book I'm reading is taking some getting into, so I'm easily swayed!!
