I'm excited about this one! Here's the list:

Anna Karenina
Crime and Punishment
Great Expectations
The Count of Monte Cristo
The Fountainhead
The Portable Dorothy Parker
War and Peace

On this one give me your top five. I want you to really have a say in what may come. Have fun!!

*Voting ends as always on the 29th. The announcement of the winning selections will shortly follow. Give me a little slack on this one, though, gang... I'll be doing two at once!


Hippo dari Hongkong | 74 comments I'll be the first who vote for The Count of Monte Cristo even I have the feeling that Anna Kareninawill be the book for summer reading.. Well, still I'm rooting for Count! hehe...

1. The Count of Monte Cristo
2. Great Expectations
3. The Portable Dorothy Parker
4. The Fountainhead

Sorry but reading a Russian novel in summer sounds like the time I read Wuthering Heights on a beach in Italy. *shutters* It just doesn't work right. If we do a WINTER reader, I'm in.

Oh, and I'd vote all five times for Count if that were legal! Heh!


Hippo dari Hongkong | 74 comments And five vote from me too.
Now we have ten "vote" for the Count ;)

Five books? OK then, I just add one more book--Great Expectation

Sarah (songgirl7) Anna Karenina
The Count of Monte Cristo
The Fountainhead
Crime and Punishment
Great Expectations

I really want to read Dorothy Parker, but since it's a collection of short stories, poems, quotes, etc. I don't really want to do it as a long summer read. And War and Peace, well, scares the crap out of me, to be frank. And I totally would go for a 3 month winter read (or autumn).
