Welcome to the forums!

I was considering taking a month off, due to lack of participation last month.

:oops: I guess I got sidetracked during August.

If Fathers and Sons or my nomination, The Brothers Karamazov, is nominated, then I will surely be able to participate.

I would love to participate, but I have so much assigned reading this semester that I will only be able to join in if it is something light.

i think that we should do a more contemporary book so that way maybe other people will get involved. A friend of mine just borrowed me Twilight by Stephanie Meyer. We could do that one or something else, but i think that it should be contemporary.
