I nominate Into the Wild by Jon Krakauer.

All of my friends praised the movie so much that I gotta read the book. *wink*

+1

I nominate: Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman

Who is the Author of the Namesake? There are at least two books that i know of with that title

I think its Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri - The Namesake
That's what I seconded for.

Faizan, did you mean the one written by Seteven Parlato?

Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri.. that's the one I nominated.

Thanks for the clarification Tripti :)

Jhumpa Lahri one I seconded.

I second The namesake

I had a look at some reviews online and its sounds like something I would enjoy. I second The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri. Already placed my hold at the library on both e-book and regular book.. lol ;).
I hope it lives up to my expectations...eek!

The Namesake seems to be a different genre book which I would like to try reading. Hence I second The Namesake.. :)

Second The Namesake.

It seems like a Namesake tide ;)

ha ha ha. I sense a winner even before putting up the polls.

I will put the polls tomorrow. We've got only 6 nominations, so all of them will be on the polls.

I didn't wait for the poll... sorry...just got stuck into The Namesake... I will try and restrain myself from saying anything about it until it's time to do so (assuming that it might just be the winner

I too second The Namesake

Polls are here : https://www.goodreads.com/poll/show/1...

Ha ha ha :D
No worries :) Do join in the discussions. (Provided it wins which looks very much probable)

...Polls suggest it's a battle between 'Into the wild' and the 'Namesake'... Drama! :)

PS: When is the cut off date?

23rd Feb. Thought this time there would be a clear winner but I was wrong. I love dramas :P

Only three more days to go (at least in New Zealand) before we know what the March read is!

Looks like Namesake will easily make the cut...

Yeah, and if I'm not wrong then it would be the first Indian book to win the BOTM title ;)

Yes... looks like a win for The Namesake so far!
