A TOWN LIKE ALICE--Date? |
Lead | ||
|
Need to figure out our Nov/Dec schedule. Since several people already reserved the book, should we slide A TOWN LIKE ALICE in on Nov 14th and push A HIGH WIND
IN JAMAICA back into Dec? Thanksgiving seems to be on Nov 26th.
Or, should we just put Alice into December? Or, should we not have a separate chat for Alice? So many good books coming out in the next few weeks---sigh You decide When should we schedule A Town Like Alice by Nevil Shute? (Result) |

Hmmm. Would I want to read that? I think I'd probably just prefer to see him play and keep that memory. But thanks for the info.

Looks like we have a clear winner, instead of our usual coin toss tie.

I picked up a used copy of Alice for a couple of dollars. The shop owners had the entire collection of his books, two dozen or so on the shelf. Our library
didn't have it, I note that it was first published in 1957.

Well, crapola. I have this out from the library now but was counting on being able to renew it. Now it's due back on Monday, I haven't even started it
yet -- and can't anytime soon -- and I can't renew because someone else has a hold on it.
Have we started a trend, again?
