I am interested in "Ice Storm" than the other three books. What about you, guys?

Cheyenne | 15 comments Hmm I'm not really into the mystery/thriller type books. If I had to pick one from these to read it'd probably be Ice House.

Kym (kymthevirgo) Ice Storm seems good to me. I am open to an book.

Okay. Ice House, it is! I will try to pick random genres to keep readers interested. Remember, you're always welcome to make book suggestions.

Ice House, it is! Feel free to help me to make book suggestions on monthly assigned readings in the future.

Kym (kymthevirgo) Start and end date? I am going to request this book from the library...I saw the movie a few years ago and liked it, so I am interested in the book version.

Kym (kymthevirgo) I got the book The Ice House today from the library. I am interested in starting it.

Cheyenne | 15 comments I'll try to get a hold of a copy, but no guarantees that once I start it I'll finish it! I try not to blunder through a book I'm not enjoying so that I don't make myself miserable. :p

I thought it is already settled for The Ice House. I guess we can try to finish read by end of this month and discuss about this book.

It is okay if you don't like the book. I usually read up to 50 pages and decide whether should I continue reading or not.

I would like you to make several book suggestions for the next month, February. We will pick something that interest you.
