Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Hold on, there's a bug, as such. What happened to "Excuse me mam while I vomit" and "Cancer Ward" and all that stuff from around then? "Nod", too.

Ah - it's the "scroll down a tad" ones I'd missed.

If the polls are to be believed there's normally fewer than ten people that read the book and vote on it most months.

My understanding was that the Book Club one would be for people in the Book Club, iyswim. Not cliquey, just a way of us seeing who liked what. We did a poll after we'd done ten books, but there are too many books for that now. But perhaps it is cliquey if only 10 people take part. Dunno. I'd just be interested in organising my own thoughts, and seeing other people's thoughts.

Since when has any knowledge of what you're voting for been a requirement in a democracy?

My vote still goes to The Field of the Cloth of Gold (Magnus Mills) for the 'book I would not have read otherwise that I enjoyed most'.

But that's exactly the sort of data I'd be interested in seeing, and right now we can't even see all the books in a list *whines*.

Perhaps a thread would do it. I'll think about it.
