[EN World Book Club] Suggestions & Selectors

[Duncan Haldane]

From the author's website link you provided, the paperback comes out July 6, 2004 (a very important day, the fourth anniversary of the birth of my second son, Jacob).

Yeah, but purchasing the hardback now from amazon is cheaper than buying the paperback on the day of it's release

Oh, and when I went shopping for the book the other day the store had a display containing both Eragon and Pattern Recognition - both books I couldn't find when they were the selection.

I'm happy if you want to push back the date, but with the 60% off the price of the hardback at amazon, I know I wouldn't bother waiting.

Sounds like an interesting book, count me in. I haven't participated since Anubis Gates (my first time in the mix, also) - partly because I didn't think I'd like one of the selections, and then the thread subscription thing (though I've got my subscription page bookmarked now, so not so much of a problem anymore)

I think a new thread for each book would be a good idea, makes it easier to jump in. Perhaps the first post could be edited with all the pertinent info so that anyone who wanders by could see everything right away. Something like:

"This month's book: A Fridge too Far
Reading time: Oct-Nov 1st
Discussion begins: Nov 1st
New book picked: Nov 2nd (see new thread, like here: http>>....)"


Would make it easy for a newb to pick things up quickly. Whoever started the thread could add the above info as it is decided in the thread. There there could be a link to a more in-depth explanation of the whole process, and links to previous threads & such.
