867012 Hi, all! Although I just joined, I have been following your discussion on book choices. I had to look up a couple of the books, and I think Cloud Atlas looks interesting. Looking forward to reading with you!

Sounds good to me :)

2428714 I agree. We can wait until next week. 50 Books' Book Club will certainly get some new members :)

It's up to you all. If you would like to see if we get some more members in the next week or so, we can wait. Maybe conclude the nominations on August 7th, vote August 8-10, and then start the book on the 11th? Then we can start September's nominations a little earlier.

Help spread the word about the group! I would love to get enough members to do a themed topic, or some challenges!

message 8: by Susanna (new)

2135995 Well, it's the 31st. Should we wait for more members to join or should we vote for a book, the four of us? :)
