    I'm pretty sure In Cold Blood is more than 200 pages. I hope I don't discourage you to vote for it. It is a good read.

    In Cold Blood is a good read, but I think the only reason people are reading it now is because of the relase of Capote (the Movie)
    MARIA LASACAVATA

    "if you saw Atlas, the giant who holds the world on his shoulders, if you saw that he stood, blood running down his chest, his knees buckling, his arms trembling but still trying to hold the world aloft with the last of his strength, and the greater his effort the heavier the world bore down upon his shoulders--what would you tell him to do?"
    "To Shrug"

    Yes, you are right, the copy I saw has about 300 pages.
    I rather not vote, seeing that I'm not hundred percent sure whether I'll be able to find a time to participate next month. If I do, I'll surely drop by in the discussion thread .

    It has been a long time since I participated so please forgive me if there are clearly posted rules I have missed, but which book do we read with this three-way tie of ours?
