April / Wharton Reading Poll

I would like to read this time with the club :nod:

But that will entirely depend on my getting a copy of the book that wins, which is EF, and I am inclined to vote for it too. I think I saw a movie with the name 'Age of Innocence,' was it based on this novel?

I would still prefer EF, although I havent read any book by this author so far. And I really really want to read a book with the club. I always decide to read, when that book has already been read and discussed :rolleyes:

I'll check out at the book store today, else i'll continue with Marquez book. :)

Edit :- Got the book :banana: I will be reading with everyone :D I must vote now :)

I believe so, yes. Wynona Ryder was in it, and Itcame out in 93' I think. She ruined the film of any of its merits! :crash: The film was ok though, Could have been better without Ms. Ryder. :thumbs_up

Thanks Asa. :)

I have started reading Ethan Frome, on the first page, though :p

:D

I think Age of Innocence is gonna rally.

Tomorrow we shall see who wins! I think I shall read the other Edith Wharton's books too. I shall add them in my huge book list.

The result is so obvious.

Yes, I would love to join! Where do I go for the discussion? Does it take place within this same thread here or somewhere else?

Hope you will be able to join us for the Wharton reading! :)

Either this thread turns into the discussion thread, or Scher will start a new one. Either way, it is on LitNet and you will definitely be able to find it.

Yes, I think undoubtedly Ethan Frome will win. But because of the voting...I've looked up all the books mentioned and I have to admit, Wharton's books (errr...yes even Ethan Frome) are going to end up on my shelves.

I think maybe I should start considering finding a copy of Ethan Frome :blush:

Please do find a copy, Grace. I am finding it interesting, I hope you will too :)

As grace mentioned, there will be a discussion thread in the BC discussion section in April, where you will be able to post your comments/questions on the book.

I am very glad that you all will be joining us in April. I read AofI last year and loved it. Wharton is good, me thinks!

PS: Madhuri, yes, the movie was based on the book. I enjoyed watching it as well.


Going once...

Hey, Madhuri! I am on the first page too! I was compelled to read it right before I logged on, and it must have been your spirit that beckoned me to the book. It sat eagerly on my shelf forever, and now I have picked it up! :lol: :p Creepy eh? :lol:

Going twice...

I wonder what will be the discussion like? :D
