Thank you!

Since it didn't win last month, I want to try again for Patience & Sarah by Isabel Miller.



Set in the nineteenth century, Isabel Miller's classic lesbian novel traces the relationship between Patience White, a painter, and Sarah Dowling, a farmer, whose romantic bond does not sit well with the puritanical New England farming community in which they live. Ultimately, they are forced to make life-changing decisions that depend on their courage and their commitment to one another.

I nominate Letters from a Peruvian Woman by Françoise de Graffigny. I can lead.

The Morgesons by Elizabeth Stoddard. I can lead

Gentleman's Agreement by Laura Z. Hobson Can lead

Nominations end on November 15.

Voting ends on November 28th.

Last day to vote if you want.

January's book is The Morgesons. Since the holidays are coming up and people taking off work, would anyone want the threads posted before Christmas? If not, I plan on posting the discussion threads around December 28/29.

Hi Charlene - I'm ok with whatever date suits you! I have committed to way too many reads next month, so will be quite late starting this one.
