What a difficult choice this month! I hope some of the books will be nominated again. Before I make my choice Ann, could I just clear something up please? Kaz has nominated Lark Rise to Candleford as her classic choice, but it has been listed with the ordinary novels on here. Which is it to be? Jeanette x |

Hi Ann I have only read a couple of these books, but would thoroughly recommend and vote for Cecilia Ahern - PS I Love You, it's a great book, made me laugh and cry at the same time. Also enjoyed and vote for Phillipa Gregory - The Other Boleyn Girl. Jojo x |

Hi all, Can you nominate past or present books as a contender? Sorry haven't read all the threads. Aileen xx |

Hi Aileen, we have been re-nominating books that have been nominated in the past recently because otherwise a lot of good books were being passed over. So I think the answer is yes. Are you thinking of joining us? We are at the voting stage this month but you are very welcome to join us either now or when we suggest books for November at the end of October. Ann Glos |
