As always, public opinion is necessarily that of the State.
Dissidents and their families have already been purged.
With striking new epaulettes on my shoulders

list of books
If that doesn't work, just use the link below to get to the posting. There are links to most of the books on the list, so that people can easily look into them.
Sadly, the two I wanted to read the most (Teacher Man and Sunlight Dialogues) do not have the search inside feature.
I will rank my choices later.
Good list by the way.

My order
1. Teacher Man
2. Sunlight Dialogues
3. Lolita
4. Middlesex
5. Hunger
6. Heart of the Matter
7. A House for Mr. Biswas
Maybe switch 3 and 4.
How about a point system to determine the book?

I've heard good things about Middlesex. But as appropriate, I will bow to the General

I read Middlesex. It has been almost 2 years, so I don't remember any specifics. However, I remember enjoying it immensely.

If we're not reading as a group, can we still get t-shirts and have cocktails?

YES
