Holy shit! That place is brilliant. They stock books I've been searching for for ages. Thanks for the tip, gents!

Can I suggest "Thirteen Moons" by Charles Frazier for January? It wont win but I'm reading it anyway. He was cool. Asked me about my Grandfather Mountain T shirt and said that was where he wrote this one. Then we talked about Cherokee history and Forest Gump of all things.
Not a lot of "Cold Mountain" fans here as I recall.

I know I've been inconspicuous by my absence of comments, but like others I've just had nothing new to add. I just wanted to say to whoever put 'The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay' forward (too lazy to look it up) Hey, that's a great book, and I'm really enjoying it. I'm loving the book club just for bringing books to my attention that I'd never have chosen by myself.
:D

I was actually going to suggest this previously but the thought got lost en route, but how about a [TTLG Book Club] thread that covers off short reviews of books that don't make it for the pick and end up dropping off the submission list. Why it was good, what made it different, etc.
The Kavalier and Clay above is a good example, as is The Blind Assassin which I am not going to resubmit. It gives people the chance to know if a failed submission is worth seeking out?

Is this where we would discuss Ender's Game, if the book actually offered anything worthwhile to discuss?
Paz on 2/11/2006 at 12:33
Actually forget all that, I think the discussion happens in the old thread where Ender's Game won the vote.
Stitch on 2/11/2006 at 16:23
Correct, chaps. However, you can start making suggestions for January's book in this thread.
I'll bump the proper thread so you guys can start discussing <U>Ender's Game</U>.
