Poll to choose May’s book

Standard

Here is a poll to decide April’s book. Please take the time to vote, I will leave it open for a week.

‘Girl with a Pearl Earring’  is my World Book Night book for 2013. I will be receiving a box of it in the next month and anyone who wants a copy is welcome to one. I know that at least 3 of the book club have already read it though.

I would like to revert to taking turns to pick books as I think it worked well. This time we will go alphabetically by surname. So Merle, Sinead, Anne Marie, Jennie, Laura K, Claire, Laura M, Susan, Sarah and Siobhán. (Weird that three of the Ss came last again, sorry girls!). Let me know what ye think or if ye can suggest other ways to pick books.

Choose March’s Book

Standard

We chose four numbers at random and we will choose from the corresponding books from 1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die. Laura M’s random number generator was the source of much amusement.

297.  The Player of Games – Iain M Banks
1305.  Aesop’s Fables
542. The German Lesson – Siegfried Lenz
559. Wide Sargasso Sea – Jean Rhys

Please choose which one we’ll read:
