I've already started reading Risen by Jan Strnad and so far it's every bit as great as I hoped, but this thread had stirred my interest in The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson as well. I know I haven't read it, but I can't recall if I listened to it as an audiobook years ago or not, although I believe I did. I have seen the silent film version, and may even have a copy in in my video collection somewhere. I'll have to download a copy of Dr. Jekyll and put in in my To Be Read collection on my Kindle.
Fortunately, =X= uploaded a copy to MobileRead. https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=32200 Last edited by WT Sharpe; 09-28-2010 at 11:47 AM. |

A little-known fact about Jan Strnad: his groundbreaking research in an arcane field led to the cure of an agonizing, ultimately fatal disease so rare it had no name.

Bought Risen yesterday.
So far, a great read. Congrat to the author for giving us a good (drm free) book for 3 bucks ! |

Nope, not me. I've learned my lesson about reading them too early. The last couple of times I read the chosen selection right after it was elected and I found I forgot too many of the finer points by the time the official discussion starts several weeks later. I'll start mid-month.
Of course, I have a mind like leaky pipe. You smarter folk might get away with it. |

Not an issue for me. Not that I'm smarter than you. It's just that I lack the vocabulary to discuss the book later. But I'll read you guys... Last edited by FRKikos; 09-28-2010 at 04:28 PM. Reason: 'passive reader' doesn't translate well from french |

Excellent book!
One of my favorites! By the way, this list is not official. I may do some substitutions before September 30th. |
