Nominations for April 2024
date
newest »

This is from Georgia Scott: I'd like to nominate Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse and for something shorter and quite different Francoise Sagan's Bonjour tristesse.

I have been caught up in Hallmark Channel's Lovuary with Jane Austen. I won a giveaway from their Pride and Prejudice book club and watched Paging Mr. Darcy to see the props I won in the movie.
So I will nominate Emma by Jane Austen.
Granted I think I want to read about every book on this nomination list.

If you want to nominate the book, you may. Some people might want to read a mystery.

You just have to make sure your country's copyright laws are the same as Canada's.
I won't be reading unfortunately. I have a busy month ahead of me & I am starting to get overwhelmed by my reading goals. But I will get to it some day!

I'm in NZ so use the American Gutenberg, the Australian Gutenberg & Faded Page. I do still find some freebies on Amazon as well.

Yes, that's fine, Emily. If you'll set up a spoiler and non-spoiler thread.
I'm so glad other people want to read this one, I read Miss Mole last year which I enjoyed very much and a friend mentioned that she liked Chatterton Square even better, so I have high hopes.
