    Default RPA Book Club: June Voting

    Below is a comprehensive list of all novel titles suggested for the RPA book club to read for June.

    If you're not a part of the book club, feel free to join our group here (and make sure to read all the rules posted there!) Once you're a part of the group, feel free to vote here! I will discard all votes made by those not in the group, because it's not fair to those who plan on reading the book.

    That being said, everybody is allowed three (3) votes! Do not vote for your own! All votes are visible to keep people from ignoring the above. If you do vote for your own or more than three all of your votes will be ignored! Yep! I'm just mean like that! And you don't have to use all three of your votes if you don't want to.

    Now that that's out of the way, on to the list. I have included the title, author, genre, and a small blurb about each book to make sure that people are choosing books that really interest them. Voting will be open through the 29th of this month (that's a little less than a week!) unless there is a clear winner!

    I'll be sending out PM's some time soon to see if we should revote.

    To those who don't know what is being referred to, American Gods is... not RPA appropriate.

    Why?

    EDIT: I mean I have read American Gods and that's why I did not vote for it but why is it not RPA appropriate?

    It's a bit to "descriptive" for RPA.

    And the Handmaid's Tale isn't?

    Anyway I am completely fine with this arrangement just that if you don't want American Gods on that list you should prune out out Handmaid's Tale and The Dark Tower too...


    EDIT: For future reference what subject matter can't a book have to be read by RPA bookclub?
