Hollie Merry December everyone!

I know you're all busy planning for the holidays and the new year but here is your chance to vote for your first group read of next year.

As always 3 votes per person in order of preference and please put book title and authors name (in case there is another book with the same title).

ETA, this thread is for any book you want to read at all.

1. Florence and Giles by John Harding

2. The Luminous Life of Lilly Aphrodite by Beatrice Colin

3. When God Was a Rabbit by Sarah Winman

Hollie The Luminous Life of Lilly Aphrodite is splendid, I read it earlier this year, or possibly at the tale end of last year. I would encourage anyone to read it, it's just beautiful.

Thanks Hollie ... I'd only read a few reviews and the blurb before but it sounds right up my street. I'll have to order it.

1) The Raw Shark Texts by Steven Hall

2) The End of Mr. Y by Scarlett Thomas

Only two nominations but both books I've already read and would like to read again and I think other people will like.

The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafón

The Luminous Life of Lilly Aphrodite by Beatrice Colin

Florence and Giles and The Turn of the Screw by John Harding

Difficult to choose only 3 (the main other book I wanted on my list was The Children's Book by A.S. Byatt . I've chosen books that I keep reading great things about and thinking "I really want to read that".
