    Hi to all....

    Sorry for the delay. I was waiting to see if anyone would reply.

    First, I was looking at Witch of Portobello, but I guess the person who suggested it has already read it, and no one else but me had voted for it. So, I guess it would be ok to choose a different book for now.

    Since nobody has answered further I am thinking of going with these two book selections.

    My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult
    Rebecca by Daphne de Maurier

    I chose these two books because My Sister's keeper is a newer title and Rebecca, an older title. Both the authors have a very different style of writing yet they are a delight to the reader.

    If you guys are ok with these, then I would post the discussion questions as soon as possible. So as and when you are reading if you come across answers for the questions you can quote the question and discuss about the question. Since the book was selected by me I am posting the discussion questions - likewise, from next month whoever nominated the book that is being selected for the week would have to post the questions.

    If you all agree, I would post the questions with the book name as a new thread. We could keep this thread Online reading for discussion of nominating the books.

    What do you guys say???? If its a yes, do let me know, if you have another suggestion - please please let me know asap :D

    Regards
    Maddie

    You probably missed out on my post just ahead of yours. I had already voted for Rebecca and I have got the book too. I will try and get the other book too.

    I am getting started with Rebecca so please post the discussion questions.
