I read Madame Bovary in September, and I really did not like it. I LOVE breakfast at tiffanys, I just don't think there is that much to discuss in a group, despite how fantastic it is. I tend to prefer to discuss very meaty books. I've never read Vanity Fair or Fahrenheit 451, and I voted for Fahrenheit 451.

I voted Madame Bovary. I've read all the books in the list, but I think Bovary would be the most interesting to talk about. Maybe this time I'll read the book with everyone else. I've only just started the last book club book.

I voted for Fahrenheit 451. It's a great book (actually read it last winter), but would love to read it again. Hopefully through the book club I will get more out of it this time.

is it safe to declare the next book club book Fahrenheit 451?

I've already read it, but I'll borrow my boyfriends copy again when it starts so I can go over it. Lol he's gonna be annoyed, he keeps rousing on me cos I borrow his books and then just add them to my tbr pile rather than reading them. Atm I have his copies of On the Road, The Trial and Slaughterhouse 5.

Neat, I've never read it but I think it'll be a great book to discuss, I'm already excited about it! Not to mention that I now have a great excuse for yet another trip to my favorite book store!

The title of this one is going to be a real trial. I was trying to find it on my library's website, and couldn't spell it right. After three tries, I copied and pasted from here.
