Nominations have ended with no takers. So I will again use random.org to choose our group read. :-)

And the winner is #66 Exodus by Leon Uris!!!

Hope I can find my copy.

Book Concierge (tessabookconcierge) Oh My Stars ... I actually considered nominating this ... in fact, I thought I HAD nominated a book.

Happy to read Exodus ... but it's a long book and I'm not sure I'll get to it quickly this month.

I think it's over 600 pages. I read it in high school. So excited to read it again. We can take 2 months if you want. I love Leon Uris' books. A little dated, but interesting stories.
