The Catholic Book Club discussion

For the first time in the history of the club we have a triple tie for the winner. The three books that got five votes are:

1. Deliver Us from Evil by Thomas A. Dooley

2. Relic of His Heart by Jane Lebak

3. Strangers in a Strange Land: Living the Catholic Faith in a Post-Christian World by Charles J. Chaput

I assume that the rule to be applied here is the same we have been applying for double ties (John, correct me if I am wrong). In other words, the three books will be read during the next three months, and a randomizing process is applied to decide their order. After doing this, I got the following order:

BOTM for March: "Strangers in a strange land"
BOTM for April: "Deliver us from evil"
BOTM for May: "Relic of his heart"

Therefore the next voting will take place next May 15th.

Apart from the three books tied in the first place, "The Mango murders" got four votes the first time it has been voted. All the other books (except one) got at least two votes.

There was a book with no votes: "The light of Christ" by Thomas White. This book will be excluded from the next voting.

To replace the three winners and the eliminated book, four books will be included in the next voting, taken from the nominations. They are the following:

"Reality: a synthesis of Thomistic thought" by Garrigou-Lagrange, nominated by John.

"Broken body: journey to wholeness" by Jean Vanier, nominated by Vicky.

"The last Crusader" by Louis de Wohl, nominated by Fonch.

"Paul: a biography" by N.T. Wright, nominated by Jill.

I agree, Manuel.
