2013 Method of Book Selection

The votes are in!

We will be determining 2013 books by last years ranking system

We will be reading Thunderstruck by Erik Larson in March

 

At January’s  meeting many people liked the idea of having the host determine the book that is discussed that month.  A vote was taken and

  • 4 people voted to use the ranking system we used last year.
  • 3 people voted for having the host select the book

And while we were at it, we voted whether or not to discuss EriK Larson’s book “Thunderstruck” or remove it from our reading list.

4 people voted to read Thunderstruck

3 people voted against reading Thunderstruck.

    Just a comment on reading “Thunderstruck”. While I whinged about it for awhile at the last meeting, I have come to the conclusion that it’s only fair, imo, to read it as it DID get our votes. In the future, I guess I’ll pay more attention to the submissions for vote and point out if we double up within a year. I know that if Larson were one of my favorite authors, I’d want to read more than one and convince everyone else to do the same. John McPhee, author of “Founding Fish” IS one of my faves, btw 😉 Just sayin’…
