Holy crow!! There is one I loved and one I have wanted to read! Decisions!

The other poll was easy as it had one I have wanted to read forever 😄

FYI. Rebecca is leading the Jan &Feb poll and Cider House Rules is leading the January poll. But Rebecca is less than 500 pages, and Cider House Rules is nearly 1000 pages. Could they be switched?

What an interesting idea Nancy! I can see the logic of this, as both books qualify in both categories, and are on the GR book page as such, yet our classic read lasts twice the time.

IF both win, we'll definitely consider this!

Right we have a solution! If The Cider House Rules wins it will also be a bi-monthly read.
