Vote for our February Book
In February we will be starting the GP Book Club, and we are going to start with a Fiction selection. If you would like to make a suggestion for next month, please do so here: http://www.globalpaw.com/thread12960.html

This vote will only be up for a short time, because we want to get started. In future months, you will have longer to vote.

Further information on each book, including a description is also at the above thread.

This poll will close February 1st at 8AM CST.

I'm intrigued by the bulldoog story. I haven't read it, but it came pretty highly reviewed.

So you've read it?? All I could find were recommendations of "good book" but very little description of the actual book. I ordered it to read even if we don't read it as a group.

Well, you definitely have me even more on the edge of my seat. Sure you didn't write the reviews I was reading, they told me about as much of the story too... LOL! J/K! I love a good book.

Stick around and read February's book with us. We would enjoy the company, and I know that we have a few other Aussie Book Club members!
