It's time to nominate books for our May group read! I have changed things around a bit. I still consider All Sorts a new group, so we're still experimenting. I have decided that the way we organise buddy reads is too similar to our monthly group reads. So, from next month onwards we will have 2 monthly group reads based on the poll votes. I will set up a new thread for buddy reads where members can organise buddy reads with each other, as I see we need a place for. I hope everyone is still enjoying the group and understands that we're just exploring different possibilities for the group.

This thread will remain open until April 20th when the poll will be assembled. Get your nominations in before then! Please read the rules before nominating. I look forward to your nominations.

Rules:

1. Only 1 nomination allowed per person.
2. If you want to second someone elses nomination feel free to do so but that will be your 1 nomination.
3. If for some reason you think that the outcome of the poll vote is unfair please contact a mod and we will do what we can.
4. If the poll vote is a draw then there will be a tie-break poll.

Thanks,
Jack

I nominate The Snowman by Jo Nesbo.

I'd like to nominate Carter Beats the Devil by Glen David Gold.

Alex by Adam J Nocolai.

Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern

Think you mean may book read, not April :)

I like the sound of this, having 2 main group reads will probably work better and then we can still buddy read amongst ourselves. I'll have a think about my nomination.

Oh sorry, I'll change that.

The Painted Girls

Tenderwire

I second Night Circus.

My official suggestion is Life After Death.

American Gods
Neil new books comes out on June 18 maybe one of his past to get other ready.

New book? .. I just stopped what I was doing and stared at your post for a bit.

Ahhh! I just looked it up. Excited!

I am reading IQ84, highly recommend the book.
Haruki Murakami, author

I nominate Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell.

oh I have that waiting on my shelf, but already put my nomination in. =(

I also would love to add my vote to those nominating 1Q84 by Haruki Marukami! I have the 3-volume paperback edition on my "I-can't-wait to-read-these-bookcase," (A-hem...floor to ceiling.) Yes, I may have wee touch of biblioholism. Doesn't everybody???

I would like to nominate The Great Gatsby. There might some interest in re-reading it because of the movie coming out, or those reading it for the first time.

Don't let's go to the dogs tonight by Alexandra Fuller

I'd quite like to read Cloud Atlas too, but I'm going to nominate another book that I've been dying to read lately and it keeps just missing out on my book group picks. The Book Thief

A Child is Torn: Innocence Lost.

Think I've done this right, this is my nomination xx

The Light Between Oceans

I really want to read this one!

I would like to nominate:

by Jodi Picoult

Blue Dahlia by Nora Roberts

Great nominations so far.

I'll nominate Blood Ties

I nominate wool by hugh howey, somebody?

I'll vote for Blood Ties as well.

I'd like to nominate "The Host" by Stephenie Meyer.

If I Stay by Gale Forman
I'd also vote for many other books mentioned above))))

And When She Was Good
Wow, that sounds like a good one - I second it!

(But I will also be glad if "The Book Thief" wins because I love that book and I think everyone should read it)

I would like to vote for Blue Dahlia, please. Thanks to everyone for their suggestions.
