| The Sea by John Banville - haven't read it yet and it's on my holiday list. It won the Booker Prize for fiction last year - it can't be that bad. ![]() __________________ I think the world may just surprise you yet.

I'm sorry if it was already done before. __________________ "Keep in mind, Were under the same sky, And the nights, As empty for me as for you." |Dawson♥Joey|Lucas♥Peyton|Nathan♥Haley|Dylan♥Brenda| -Sarah | |||

Since we're getting a very scattered reply then why don't we stop the suggestions now and let the remaining voters pick between: Anna Karenina by Leo N.

| I'll second Anna Karenina because that'll give me the motivation to read the book this month to discuss it in June. ![]() __________________ icon credit I Landry Clarke | |||
