Unfortunately I can't remember all of the books that were nominated for Book of the Month for October, so I will need to get some more nominations. I will leave this thread open until 30 August, and then we can vote early in September.
We will go back to the normal timetable after that.
Time of Singing by Elizabeth Chadwick.

:D You and me both. Is it October yet?
There was also that Sweet Potato Peel Pie or something like that (or was that for Sept?)
LOL, Ash, you just cracked me up! :D
Are you thinking of The Gernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society?

Yes, and hey I did pretty good with three of the words correct!
I second The Devil's Brood

Yep, it's definitely one of the more difficult titles to remember. And I still haven't found a recipe for potato peel pie!!!

It kind of tells you about it in the book. I am not sure I would want to eat it myself, unless I was desperate like the characters were.

I believe my nomination was Passion by Jude Morgan.
How about a Rose for the Crown By Anne Easter Smith

Diamondlil - do you happen to have the list for all the books-of-the-month?

If Diamondlil doesnt have it I found a few using a search and using the Cached. If we want to post them I suppose we could do it that way.

I think I have most of them. I'll try to put the list together over the weekend.
I do know that we have read A Rose for the Crown as Book of the Month before but given that we don't have any of the discussions left anymore I guess it can still be nominated and then if people vote for it they vote for it!

Thanks! If it's not too much trouble Divia, could you PM me the list? I'm computer illiterate LOL! I don't even know how to post an avatar much less what "cached" means! I'm literally bare bones!

I think one of the noms was The Last Queen by CW Gortner. If not I am going to nominate it myself.
I will close the thread off this time tomorrow and get the poll up and running.

Yes, The Other Queen was definitely nominated - I don't know who by, though.

The Other Queen by Philippa Gregory or The Last Queen by CW Gortner.
I am pretty sure it was The Last Queen.
