Choose A Book

Recommended Posts

Salaams ya'll. Here it is, just register your vote here - so we can be on our merry way :D

 

The book with most votes shall be our first read, insha Allah.

 

In case you're at the choice of books - I just lifted them from Classiques list as it was agreed that she would have the first choice of book. It might be helpful to look at some of the reviews / descriptions nomads already provided of some of these books in the Hey Geek Squad Listen to Shehrazade thread!

 

Once book is selected, we can go away, read it and return with our reviews and thoughts in about a month.

Allah within 5 mins, 4 people have selected Beloved by Toni. Very odd, I hope your not getting paid for this...!!

 

She is a beautiful writer. But shall we give nomads till Friday to register their votes.

 

***Whoever is online should just take over and announce the winning book.

 

till then...Salaams

Anyway Friday is not that far. We'll see who will win the highest vote.

^^Thank God for that. I have to read, summaries and present 2 other books (and audio lectures) for my sisters group by Sunday. I, worried that I would be left behind -cos I won't be touching this book till am done with my current project.

 

I know some of have already read it, but you have to keep your lips sealed and wait for the rest of us. Insha Allah.
