Bookclub: Vote for the book to read during September

We have had a slack month for recommendations, perhaps it's the holidays, but this month we have only 4 books on the list. I did think about only having one vote per person, rather than the usual multiple vote, but decided against it. Let's hope it works and that one book will stand out this month. I think all the books are great, so whatever the vote, we are sure to have a good book for September.

You can vote for as many books as you like, but in one go (you can't come back later and vote again).

The poll will stay open until 30 August and the winner announced then. The discussion thread will then open on the 14 September.

Please note voting is open to regular KUF members only and authors should not vote for their own books.

Susanne - I hadnt even considered reading Wendy Perriam until you started raving about Sin City. I have started on Broken Places and it is very good indeed, so thanks for that! Clapping hands Clapping hands Clapping hands Clapping hands

Great Elaine! I'm looking forward to reading it, whether it wins or not. If you go onto Sin City, be warned though, there is a lot of "sin" in it! Big Grin
