Ok based on the suggestions thread these were the most popular books/authors (I tried to include all authors and books that were mentioned by at least two people). If I missed anything please tell me.

I voted Mrs. Dalloway, I have so many Virgina Woolf books lying around and I haven't gotten around to reading any of them.

I'm not sure.. I'm gonna wait a bit... because I'm gonna read on the road anyway, so maybe I should choose a book I wouldn't normally read... I'm gonna think about it some more..

I voted On The Road because, I've read almost every book on this list what has been translated to Estonian. Oh and I just have to say that I loved Ethan Frome and Nineteen Eighty Four. I just LOVED them!

Just voted for On the Road. It's been sitting on my bookshelf waiting to be read for a good two years now! (Don't ask me why, I'm just lame that way.)

I voted for A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, even though I read it not too long ago. I like On The Road also

I voted for Mrs. Dalloway, I've been wanting to read it and I think it Woolf would be great for a discussion.

They´re all great but I also voted Mrs Dalloway. I´ve been meaning to read something by Virginia Woolf for ages.

I've voted Mrs. Dalloway. It's been on my TBR list and I think the summaries and descriptions for it show there is a lot we could discuss if we read it.

I have Mrs Dalloway, so i'm happy with that pick. Plus it'll be a shorter book, which would be great after Middlesex.
