[2012] What are you reading?

Anyone interested in choosing a book to read on goodreads.com?

Lets bring out our inner geeks.

I can make a list of 10 suggestions and everyone could either choose from the list or add their recommendations. Once we get at least 3-4 votes for a book, then I guess those that are interested can participate or hold out for the next book. Maybe read a book per month? We can decide on that as well.

The initial list:
Gone Girl
The Art of Fielding
American Sniper
Room
The Night Circus
Lolita
Ready Player One
Water for Elephants
Unbroken
The Stranger

Lets get some suggestions...

 

LET'S DO IT. Let's pick a book by tomorrow and start. 1 month to read.

 

I vote for water for elephants. Never read it before and have heard good things about it

 

I 2nd Water for Elephants. It's been sitting on my shelve for a while now, need a reason to crack it open.

 

Water For Elephants has been on my list forever...Ive heard so many good things about it, but for some reason, I need a "push" towards it. Im fine with that selection as well.

We'll wait it out until tomorrow to get some other opinions.

 

Funny I loaned out water for elaphants about 2 years ago never got it back. Haven't read it. I can get it back though she still lives in the same city I do.

 

I'll read whatever book you guys choose. I would like Ready Player One, but I've already read it. I'm just slightly obsessed with it and would love a chance to tlak with other folks about it. But I'll happily do whichever book you guys choose.

 

Im very interested in that book...if not now, then definitely gotta read that one soon.

 

Just looked up ready player one. Annnnd looks like a good one

 

Currently reading: The Scramble for Africa: White Man's Conquest of the Dark Continent from 1876-1912

 

his next novel the wind up bird chronicle is his best.

cool, cf book club!

 

blankets is one of my favorite books ever. i read it in a day, hours. just could not put it down.

it was creepy how much i identified with the main character's adventures with evangelical christianity. anyone who has ever struggled in their faith will find it a very poignant read.beautiful illustrations too.

 

Let's pick a book. I want to get it if I don't have it, and start reading. Should be cool.

 

This. I don't mind what it is.

 

Ready player one seems very interesting as well

EDIT:
I'm reading middlesex right now. I'm on chapter two and it isn't "amazing" yet. I hope it gets better

 

joined the group. i need an excuse to use my kindle.

i'm down for whatever y'all choose.

 

Once y'all decide on a book (or now), y'all should start a new book club discussion thread and leave this one for the original intent.

 

Okay, everyone pick two books. The first book to get 5 nominations will be the one chosen. Fair?

I need to think for 20 min, haha.

 

i'm good with water for elephants or ready player one
