The Seasonal Reading Challenge discussion

At some point I think I read that if you had already read all three group reads, you could substitute one of the runners-up. If I am not making this up, can someone tell me if the runners up are:

Historical: The Other Boleyn Girl by Gregory
Censored: Speak by Anderson
Favorite Authors: East of Eden by Steinbeck

Thanks.

yeah that is right on both accounts.

In message 98 under the general questions thread, Cynthia said it had to be one of the three Group Reads, even if that results in a re-read. You might want to ask her for clarification before you read a book that doesn't count.

I remember this question distinctly because I was impressed that anyone would have read all three, lol!

The runners-up are okay for Reading with Style only.

Thanks for clearing that up! Too bad, as Speak is the only one I haven't read.
That also explains why I couldn't find any info here about using the runners up.
So now I'm in a quandary. Do I reread the Atwood, which I've read three times now for various reasons, the Golden Compass, which I've already read twice, or The Historian, which I read once and vowed I'd never touch a copy again.
Decisions, decisions.

Ashley, I had actually read 2 of 3 of the group reads, so I was rather disappointed that that left me with only one choice. I'm sure there are others that probably had read all 3.

I would NOT read The Historian again, Donna Jo! I was totally not impressed with it. I would probably say to read The Golden Compass again since you'd probably fly through that book really fast.
