Make your vote count! (Just practicing for November!)

It never hurts to practice voting. So I did.

Even though I've already read it, I had to vote for Storm Front. I'd like the chance to read it again.

I voted for stormfront because I didn't read it and I need a good book and since I read Zelazny for the 10,000 time already.

I love Stormfront and it would be great to see a discussion on a Jum Butcher book

Nothing on the list appeals to me, I was rather hoping to vote for the vine swinging tard again.

I voted for Peter David's Sir Apropos of Nothing. I was surprised to see it as one of the choices.

We've only had 7 votes so far so I'll keep this thread open until tomorrow and then we'll know which book we should be reading.

I had to vote for Shelly's "Frankenstein." I will look into the others later. She is so under rated an author. To think, in perhaps a thousand years, she as a female author created the first original myth in that time period. Everything else is the duplication and twist on what had already been written about.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for "Storm Front", as I just checked it out of the library earlier this evening.

Storm Front is our winner this month! It isn't a long or complicated book so it should be quick and easy reading - and that is a good thing as we're a little late this month.

Happy Reading!

Well, I've finished reading "Storm Front". Since there are probably others still reading, I'll defer comment for the moment except to say that it is a really, really cool book.
