Hmm,

how does this sound?

Member Sign in deadline is by monday 15th

first Chooser of Books determined by 17th

Chooser should announce three chosen books some time from 18th to 20th

Voting concerning the three possible books 20th to 24th

Tallying of votes, and Book of the Month announcement 24th to 25th

Free time to go to library or buy from some bookstore 25th to 5th.

Month of April, reading time. Instead of waiting until the end of the month to start talking about this, we should figure out a way of allowing early talk without spoiling anything for anyone.

This is getting too complicated... :eek:

I can't decide whether I should attempt to participate. I like the idea, but I haven't got much spare time these days, and what little I have is consumed by a number of creative pursuits. Perhaps I'll tentatively join, with the pre-prepared excuse that I may fall behind, and therefore be unable to participate in discussions. Just put my name low on the book selection list, and we'll see if I can manage to keep up. If not, I'll give up my turn to pick a book. Fair?

Just like everything else around here ...

;)

Are you referring to "Fair" or "Complicated?" Heheh. Sorry, added complexity, didn't I?

you got your post in a hair ahead of me. I was referencing the "complicated" from Slarti's post.

I know. I was just being a Shmartass. I'd never tried it before, so I was wondering what it felt like. It feels exactly how Windex smells.

...Why don't they just not read the thread until they're done with the book? Self-control is hard, I know.

The schedule must be able to repeat or it will turn into the That Book We Read in April Club. In any given month:

17th: Chooser is named.
20th: Chooser must have named his/her 3 books.
25th: Vote winner is declared. Thread is created and discussion may begin forthwith.

They changed the time slot for late night X-Files
 

Sign me up. I officially have time.

Count me in as well, I need something to do in those few hours I'm NOT at the office or in Hazelton :)

Sometimes "Illiterary."

I liked Harry Potter and confess a fondness for Hairy Chested Men's Adventure Series.

oh my god wolf, we have something in common...i read all the harry potter books because i wanted to see what all the hype was about...i still like jackie collins, mary higgins clark, stephen king, john grisham, and danielle steele better, though.

bet you didn't see that one coming, wolfie.

made your day, i'm sure?

I'm in. I'll give it a try.

without looking, i'll nominate the 7th person on the list to pull the names from the hat for the choice order......and that is.......Shattered Soul...damn, missed me by one.
