Ok everyone, @christi-eaton @faithdk @gretald @hope @spradlin @hannah-c @sarah-h @overcomer @wordfitlyspoken @dbhgodreigns @zoe-wingfeather @hannah-olsen @writefury @anna-brie @hannah-krynicki @hislittlerose @vanna @jadamae @adry_grace @ingridrd @kate-flournoy @the-happy-bookaholic
It’s time to vote now. No need to vote, but I assume you want to. We have some nice options to choose from. Just like last time, you have three votes. Your first pick gets three points, your second two, and your third one point. The book with the most points wins. (Unless I think and get confirmation that it breaks the following criteria in a significant way) Our criteria are these: The book shouldn’t be too long, it should have a writing style that we think we can learn a lot from either about what to do or what not to do, it should be fairly accessible (i.e. likely at a library).
Here are our options:
Sign Of Four (Sherlock Holmes)
Treasure Island
The Hobbit
Charlotte’s Web
Ender’s Game
Through The Looking Glass
Abandoned
Dessert Dog
The Scarlet Letter🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢

@Daeus what… something tells me that’s supposed to be Pig Latin but I can’t make head nor tail of it. 😛I vote for:
1. The Hobbit
2. Charlotte’s Web
3. Ender’s GameI’m with Faith Kindred; I’m sorry I missed the last discussion! 🙁 I’m working full time now, so it’s been crazy. 🙁
I vote for:
1. The Sign of Four
2. Treasure Island@kate-flournoy It’s my very dear and cherished rendition of the word “excellent”.
🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢🐢
Here are my picks:
1. The Hobbit
2. Ender’s Game
3. The Sign of FourJust wondering, @daeus , why The Sign of Four? It’s good, but it’s not the first book of the Sherlock Holmes Series. Since some of us may not have read the first book, A Study in Scarlet, that might be a better pick. It truly introduces the characters.
Sorry if I’ve been a little distant lately. Been super busy! 🙂
@overcomer Study of four was recommended by (I think Greta). We’ll continue with it, but if it wins, I suppose we might put it to question whether we want to do an earlier one instead.

That would be cool, @daeus . I don’t really mind for myself since I’ve read them all already, (several times 🙂 ) but I wouldn’t want anyone to miss out on getting the best first impression, you know? (unless it doesn’t matter to them) Plus the first one is pretty good!
I vote:
1. Through the Looking Glass
2. The Scarlet Letter
3. Ender’s GameINTJ - Inhumane. No-feelings. Terrible. Judgment and doom on everyone.
1. The Scarlet Letter
2. The Sign of Four
3. Ender’s Game
