Tiebreaker Poll

[boswellbaxter]

Tiebreaker poll for February 2010 BOTM. Poll closes on January 10.

[Misfit]

Well, I just tied it. I'm going for Book of Fires.

[Ash]

While reading about 18th century London is not my fav period, I'd read that one over another take on the Deidre story, which I 've read since I was a kid.

[parthianbow]

Oooh, how exciting! I'm going for The Swan Maiden. That is, unless I'm not allowed to vote because I did already?

No, everyone who voted on the last poll (and those who didn't as well) can vote once on the tiebreaker poll.

I just DNF'd Book of Fires (Girl with a Pearl Firework might be a better title ;)) so it's Swan Maiden for me all the way. :D

[Vanessa]

I have both these books on my TBR pile, so I shall just read both of them.

[MLE]

Been a long time since I read any Irish mythical stuff-- not since college, when I tried to write the Tain into script format. (It proved to be far beyond my abilities at the time.) So I voted for Swan Maiden.

[Vanessa]

It's still a draw! Perhaps we should read one in February and the other in March.

[Misfit]

Flip a coin?

[Ash]

Hee, love it

Yeah, if its that close, I vote one for Feb and one for March, unless we can handle two book discussions in one month.

[boswellbaxter]

Reading one in Feb and one in March is fine with me.

[Misfit]

Alphabetical by author and/or title as to which goes first? Or flip the old coin?

[boswellbaxter]

Why not just alphabetical--by author and title--Book of Fires for Feb, Swan Maiden for March.

[Vanessa]

Sounds good to me.

[EC2]

I'd be happy with that :-)

[Vanessa]

I've finished The Book of Fires and have recorded my thoughts! I will say that I enjoyed it.

[Margaret]

Amazing! I'd like to read them both, so this works nicely for me. I still have Ross Poldark on the TBR pile - but January is not over yet!

[Madeleine]

Oh me too, and it was my choice so it's a bit embarrassing!:o RP will be my next-but-one read, as I have a read from another book group to get through, which I'm just about to start.

[Margaret]

I'm glad to know I'll have someone else to talk to when I finally get around to the Ross Poldark BOM discussion!

[Madeleine]

I'll let you know when I start it, probably around mid-Feb at my current rate!:o:)

[Margaret]

Oh, good. Mid-February is about right for me, too - I have a backlog of review books to read for the beginning of February!

[Divia]

Since March is upon us in a few days can we list some books for April. Just wondering. I'm getting antsy. :p

I'll start something.

[Divia]

yay. :) I can calm down now:p

[Madeleine]

Yes I was wondering what was happening with April!

Margaret, I'm now just over halfway through Ross P, I've posted a brief message on the relevant BOTM thread. How are you getting on with it?

[diamondlil]

Sorry, I completely lost track of where we were at with not having to do a poll last month!
