I nominated it. I haven't seen the movie but the book was excellent. I highly recommend it. I wound up voting for The Red and the Black since I've been meaning to read that for the longest time and thought this would be a good opportunity.

Thanks Janine and Scheherazade. I have been posting sporadically between here and the fantasy forums.. seeing as the fantasy books are my first passion in books. I will take a look around and see if I can build up posts.Hi Mickitaz. Only members who have 50+ posts are able to vote in the polls. However, like Janine said, it is easy to increase one's post count easily; visit our Games section!
I know that the pole closes May 1, so I have some time. I appreciate the warm welcome. Thank you again!
I will go for Rableis or Stendhal; but not yet.

The greatest art on earth Is to seem uncomplicatedly gay.
To get things clear, they have to firstly be very unclear. But if you get them too quickly, you probably got them wrong.
If you need me urgent, send me a PM
I can testify to that!
Thanks, guys.. I have been taking your advice and I am slowly getting there... My husband is wondering what I am doing... cooking dinner.. then running over to the computer to post a reply. But then, he already knows that I am just not right in the head
I am getting to meet some really interesting people here. I am glad that people here are so open and friendly. Since I seem "lost" in the way of which way to go for reading material.. I decided for May I would simply start with the winner of the pole, and work my way down the list.
I am lucky enough to live four blocks from my public library... and with the wonderful weather we have been having.. I can just walk down to pick up new books.
Thanks again!

Sun??? That is a mere urban myth here... Noone has seen it or noone has seen anyone who has seen it...

Sunny here too in New Jersey, that is a rarity as well....and I think it is about 80 here too. We seem to be having a very nice drier spring this year. Lots of pretty flowering trees out now and some gorgeous tulips in my yard and my neighbor's.
Sometimes it does rain all the time in South Jersey, and you wonder where the sun ran off to. So sorry Scher, that Mr. Sun has not visited you lately. It sure can get depressing seeing rain and mist and fog all the time...although I like fog but it is dangerous to travel in and so dampish.

Well hopefully it will be sunny in the UK at the weekend because i'll be there!

It's going to be warm apparently but I don't know about sunny, that might be pushing it
Well I just finished Candide so I guess I have a head start if it's the winner, one thing I always hate about foreign books is that I'm hopeless at pronouncing the names.
Candide for example, I imagine (probably incorrectly) is pronounced can-DEED but how on earth do you pronounce Cunegund?
