Oh I should point out that even though Clare nominated the Snapper, she was ok with us leaving it out, because it's part of the Barrytown trilogy. Good luck voting.

It looks like Roddy Doyle is a shoe in so can i request that we have seperate spoiler threads for each of the books as i can't see myself reading all three but I will read one.They are three completeky seperate stories so seperate spoiler threads would make sense to me

Sounds like a plan, Paul. It'll allow people to opt in and opt out as they wish.

Since especially the first two are very short, would it be acceptable to folks if I didn't open spoiler and non-spoiler threads for each? That would be six threads total, which is a lot for month's reading! It would instead be assumed that the thread for each book would contain spoilers for that book. It also appears that although each book is mostly self contained, the second likely contains slight spoilers for the first and the third for the second and first.

As long as people know what's contained in any thread, I doubt there'd be an issue. The last thing we want is to give you any more work, Sara, knowing how busy your next month and beyond is scheduled to be. :)
