I think it would be really good for people who haven't to read this book as I really would love to and it's a change of genre :) The Diary of a Young Girl xxx

Any other books you'd like to nominate? I haven't heard of your choice and I love new nominations - I keep them in mind for the next month:)

Has no description on here so here is one from Amazon and it sounds very intriguing."We don't want to tell you too much about this book. It is a truly special story and we don't want to spoil it.
Nevertheless, you need to know something, so we will just say this:
It is extremely funny, but the African beach scene is horrific.
The story starts there, but the book doesn't.
And it's what happens afterwards that is most important.
Once you have read it, you'll want to tell everyone about it. When you do, please don't tell them what happens either. The magic is in how it unfolds."

That explains why when I type it in to the "add book/author" it comes up with it first. I always think it's a bit daft when they change the title of a book. I'm pretty sure I have Little Bee on my kindle. Thanks Ness!

Let's get down to business:
New Rules
Everyone nominates (only) 3 books (at least one of which needs to be a classic and at least one should be recent and have been published in the last 5 years) every book you choose gets one point. So the books that have the most nominations will go to poll.
Don't forget you have until the 7th to change your vote if you want to. The polls will start on the 8th and end on the 15th. You do not have to nominate three books, one or two is fine. If you want to write a small amount about your choices that's fine too. It's all up to you :)
