Come on, folks. Only two days left and so far we only have two books nominated. I admit, I'm hording my final ticket to see if there's a last minute new book, but if not, then either Clark or Leroux will get my last ticket.

I really doubt I will be able to read any selection this month so I have refrained from anything. If there are only two options fully nominated though I might come in tomorrow/Friday and finish off everything I can.

C'mon, folks! This is the slowest Classics month ever. It's not for shortage of possibilities. Pretty much everything that's stood the test of time since 3200 BCE is fair game, but just a few minutes over 30 hours to go!

I am hoping it at least gets a second. I would certainly give it a third if it does. I doubt I will be able to read whatever is the selection turns out to be anyway so I am going to give nominations only to books that need a third to make sure there are several options for the vote.

I am hoping we get more participation.
In a last ditch effort I am calling out all the mobilereaders Please do let us know what would you like to read this month. Even if you don't actually read it |

I'll third 2001: A Space Odyssey. Though I wouldn't mind a re-read of Captains Courageous, either.

That may be my fault - I edited the second post to add in my vote for Captains Courageous and CRussel's votes in post #41. I probably should have sent you a note, as well as updating the edit comment.
