Ack! I totally missed it! I took a quick glance and the title didn't jump out at me! Oops! Sorry about that.

Ok, guess I have a decision to make, then...

Before I go break the tie, did you want to add the book you've voted for to the shelf (We're Reading)? Remember that the votes are supposed to come from the shelf! :-) Thanks!

LibraryCin says

Hi! Just fyi. I posted a voting thread in the Book of the Month group if you wanted to pop over and vote on something. So far, two people have voted for four different books. I thought you might want to vote as well, and if there's still a tie, I guess I'll be breaking it, as you did last time. :-)

Hey, just browsing and I saw your bookshelf. Love Orson Scott Card; he is one of my fave authors and a super-cool guy to boot; I actually dedicated a book I wrote called Celestia to him. Anywho, very cool shelf; keep reading!

Thanks for adding me. I see you're reading The forgotten garden by Kate Morton right now. I like to know what you think of it, because I'm planning to read this book myself.

I can't wait to see what you think of Pigtopia. It took me awhile to get into the language, but once I did I fell in love with Jack.

i see you are planning to read Where the Red Fern Grows. i was JUST thinking of that book a couple weeks ago. i used to love it as a youngster and want to re-read as an adult. my 4th grade teacher read it aloud to the class back in the day and i couldn't wait for story time every day, even though i have never cared to be read to.

i hate to give bad reviews on books but i really did not like The Master. i think it was my least favorite book i've ever read, and probably the only one i would ever rate with a one star. nothing happened in it. if you are a fan of Henry James you might like this book, otherwise i'd skip it.

Jenn R says

hmm...i'll have to rethink reading it then. i actually thought you had rated it a 4 when i looked at it, but i must have been looking at too many books at once.
i see you are planning on reading The Master. you'll have to let me know what you think. i won't give you my opinion until you finish so as not to jade you, but it for sure wasn't what i expected. have i said too much? =)
one more thing, i keep meaning to tell you i like your profile pic. is that a puffin? i went to ireland this summer and saw LOADS of them off the west coast. it was absolutely amazing to see them in nature and i was very fortunate. they don't hang around on land long.

Hmmm. I highly prefer it to The Reader, but I love Jane Austen, and I don't really care for this one. If it's possible, I think it might be even wordier than Austen.

Angie says

Sorry I couldn't help you, glad you didn't really need my help anyway. How's Rebecca coming for you? Not impressed, so it's been a difficult read for me. Better get back to reading.
