Hello,

I am starting a new way of having books suggested to the group and selecting books to vote on for each month. First, you will notice the books above are numbered. Second, they are in alphabetical order (I hope, for the most part!). Each month I will go to this site:

http://www.mdani.demon.co.uk/p...

and tell it to select 10 numbers, randomly, between 1 to X (being the number of books here) and no duplicate numbers. Those ten numbers will select the ten books we will pick from. Two weeks before the first of the month I will do this, post the books and allow members here to explain why they would suggest or not suggest certain books among them in a topic in this folder. On the first day of each month I will post the poll and a week or so later we will have 3 new books!

Also, I am asking everyone to now suggest books in this way:

Book by Author

THEY MUST HAVE BOTH and BE IN THIS FORMAT! It takes a long time to search down books just threw in here by title or, Lord forbid, "that alien book from Heinlein". Those I ignore :-p Being in college, I need some help in getting these lined up. The format above is easy to add to the list and I ask suggestions in this Monthly Book Suggestions folder be in this way. I have also created a Member's Suggestion Folder so we can suggest books not necessarily to read together or discuss our suggestions more. If you wish to suggest something here and discuss it I ask that you do the discussion in that folder so I can easily add entries and not miss any!

Also, once I add an entry to the list I will delete that post from the thread to keep it orderly. Please also check the list and not post entries already suggested.

Thanks!
Nick

This list has been updated! All suggestions except those not following the guidelines have been added.

Nick, would it be rude to add my entire SF to be read list, being careful not to include any already on the Master List, or is it a case of the more the merrier.
Considering the great job you and the other mods do I wouldn't want to upset you.
Cheers,

Richard.
