Which books will you be reading in december

[Dree]

I read Tipping the Velvet last summer, but I have never read Slaughterhouse Five, so I will go for that one! I even have it.

[Kristel]

I have Tipping the Velvet, haven’t read it. So that will be my choice. I have read Slaughterhouse Five previously, so probably won’t get to that one.

[George P.]

I voted for tipping the velvet so I will definitely be reading that. I read most of Vonnegut's books when I was in college many years ago including slaughterhouse five. I was actually in a college play of slaughterhouse five- I played Billy Pilgrim.

[Gail]

I also have read Slaughterhouse Five, so will be reading Tipping the Velvet.

[Tracy]

Yay! I’ll be reading Tipping the Velvet. I’ve read Slaughterhouse Five.

[Kelly_Hunsaker_reads]

I read Tipping the Velvet for the Diversify book so Slaughterhouse Five it is.

[Pip]

They are both books I have wanted to read for a long time, though I own neither. Will sim for both.

[Diane]

Already read Slaughterhouse-Five, so I will read Tipping the Velvet.

[Chinook]

I aim to read Tipping the Velvet, but I love Vonnegut so maybe a reread too. Granted, life is busy.

Sorry, sim?

Nice to see we'll have a good group of readers. Tipping the Velvet is one of what I call "star" (*) books within the 1001 list, which are books with an avg rating of at least 4.0 on Goodreads and at least 40 thousand ratings. It's avg rating is 4.00, so it just makes it. I know of 108 of those, of which I've read about 3/4 now.

[Paula]

I have both on my TBR, so hopefully I'll get around to reading at least one of them.

Tipping the Velvet for me as I have already read Slaughterhouse Five

[Leni]

Slaughterhouse-Five. Pretty sure I have that one on my Kindle.

[Kristel]

Any volunteers for moderating one of our books in December?

[Kelly_Hunsaker_reads]

I could do Slaughterhouse Five if nobody else wants it.
