Poll
Slayermel and I have been working on a new challenge to start July 10, and wanted to get some input from all of you! Please choose below the type of book that you would like to be included as one of the tasks for our challenge. Or if you have an even better idea, choose option 5 and post your idea in the comments below. Thanks!!
books started but never finished
classics
books whose covers made you pick up the book because you thought the picture was amazing/breathtaking/special...
books you've wanted to reread but haven't
I have an even better idea and have posted it below.

My idea would be for people to choose their all time top 5 favorite books if they could only have 5 books for the REST of their life.... what would they be. Kinda like the desert island music question...

can I be clued in on what the challenge will entail or is that a secret?
William, it's sort of a "mixed bag" of tasks, similar to our TBR Shavers Mini Game a few challenges back. Only this one comes with a fun twist. We will reveal all the details once the polls have ended. :)
Sounds like this is going to be a fun challenge!
I like the idea of the only 5 books in the world, but then you have to read someone else's 5.

If you want to vote for reading someone else's top 5 (which is a brilliant idea!) then vote for the #5 option above and make it clear here in the comments that your vote is going for that idea. Even if you've already voted, you can change your vote up until June 29th.ETA: And if you want to see what some group member's top 5 lists look like, check out this thread. Post your own if you haven't yet. I've never posted mine! How can you pick just 5 top books??? :)
And if you have strong feelings one way or another for one of the tasks, feel free to campaign here and try to convince others to change their way of thinking to match yours. :)
Come on classics, just a few more votes! *Pumps fist, does cheer* Ummm, there was a reason why I was never a cheerleader, what was it (besides lack of coordination)? Oh yeah, I was too busy reading, I should stick to that ;)
A couple of my "books started but never finished" ARE classics. :) Although I voted for amazing covers. I wasn't sure I wanted to tackle Moby Dick this year. Looks like I may have to!
I jumped ship and changed my vote since there seems to be no way for re-reads to catch up. Going to try and finish my books that I started but never finished. I have like 10 currently reading books on my GR page, that number needs to come down. *laughing*
