It's time to vote for our July Classic Selection!

Please select a one book from our Classics Bookshelf and place your nomination here.

Nominations end on the 11th at which point the poll goes up.

Please refer to this shelf of Books Already Read so that we don't nominate previous selections.

Let the nominations begin...

no we haven't Sarah. did you want to nominate it?


message 5: by Elsbeth (new)

Elsbeth (elsbethgm) I just looked at the Classics bookshelf, and came upon this one: The Vicar of Wakefield. I had never heard of it, but it sounds interesting, so I'd like to nominate it!

@ LaLaLa Laura

As a matter of fact, yes. :)


message 7: by Julia (new)

Julia (juliastrimer) I'm ready for some laughter this summer, so I nominate Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift. I could use a re-visit to Lilliput, Brobdingnag, Laputa, and the Houyhnhnms/Yahoos :-)

I love the Arthur Rackham illustrations:

Holly (whatwouldhollydo) I have "A Raisin in the Sun" on my own "To Read" list, so I'll nominate that.

♦Ashley♦ (ascherger12gmailcom) I see some good nominations so far. I think I will wait for the voting process.


message 10: by Greg (new)

Greg I wouldn't be unhappy with any of the four other nominations (they're all great), but I'll nominate Maurice by E.M. Forster.

Gulliver's Travels wins!

Elsbeth (elsbethgm) That's great. I never read it and I can also use it for a theme-read for another group (the theme is travelling - some kind of similar word has to be in the title).
