Yikes! It is that time of the year again!
Please vote for the nomination system you would like the Book Club to follow in 2014 by September 15th.
You can choose more than one option.
1. Author of the month: 12 authors to be chosen and each month we choose a book written by one of those authors. E.g. In January we include only Camus' works in the poll and read one of those in February.
2. Genre of the month: Different genres to be selected and we nominate/vote for books belonging that particular genre each month. E.g., March: Month of Sci-fi so only sci-fi books will be nominated for that month.
3. Country of the month:12 countries to be chosen and each month we read a book from one those countries' literatures. We will avoid selecting the works that are too obscure (only those are available in English on Amazon maybe?)
4. Trend of the month: Each month we read a book from a different period such as Victorian, Romantic etc.
5. Award Winners: The present system. We randomly nominate books that have received various literary awards (eg Pulitzer, Booker etc).
6. Random nominations: We nominate the books we would like to read randomly.
