July 2012 Book of the Month Poll: Chick Lit

Hi folks! Sorry this took a while but I hope it's worth the wait.

To borrow Meann's rationale about having not declared a set number of books (hihi), I decided to expand the selection a bit to four (4) books since I couldn't bear to remove one.

I've set the poll to end by 28 June so that I can e-mail e-book files to everyone except for the 4th book in the poll which is readily available at any NBS branches for PHP 175.00.

So vote away. Thanks for your patience. <3
