still stuck with sge, legend, speak and book thief. ;)
Voted :-) I have done The Book Thief sooooo many times in book clubs so voted for something different. Some great reads here!

Not sure if that's because I didn't like it or because I just wasn't really in a reading mood. I only question it because so many people say it's amazing ... I just didn't see it at the time.
I just started Book Thief the other day. I am only a little way into it but so far I like it.I also thought I was the only person on the planet who hadn't read it!

I didn't find amazing either and I was not in a non-reading mood. I have the same problem with The Golem and the Jinni but maybe it's because I'm in a non-reading mood. ;)
Aaah, that was tough. I voted for Speak though The Book Thief is one of my all-time favourites, so I wouldn't mind having an excuse for a reread :)
Voted, I had a hard time with this. There are so many great options.
and
are two of some of my favorite reads this year. Both are awesome - but been there and done that.
I liked Kitchen House a lot too but I won't be re-reading it.
Voted, but I already read the one that's winning :(. A lot of them look really good!

Same here too! It was originally published back in 2006. I'm surprised so many people here (over 140?!) still haven't gotten around to reading it yet.
I'd never heard of it until it was chosen for one of my books clubs a few months ago but I just got around to starting it the other day because I was so behind on other books.

I can't wait to see what books win the polls and will be our other reads! There were so many good books in the choice awards polls too. I'm sure we'll be swamped with amazing reads in no time! Hopefully, some of the people that have already read the winner of this poll will be excited about the other BOMs. I feel like this group has at least one book that I'm excited about every month.

The Book Thief which I have just reserved at my library.
TBT is a fabulous book. I wanted to reread before the movie comes out.Anne F

Voted - tough choice as lots of interesting books!
The Book Thief (and I think I already voted!)
This is a really good book - I really should take myself on a date and go see the movie this weekend.
The Book Thief is one of my favourite all time books. In fact my 15 year old son read it and we had great discussions. (he really doesn't read much). Saw the movie together and again, had a great debriefing session together.
How does one get a book on this list to be voted on?
