Ok this is what we should do. From now till tuesday, post a book you would like to suggest as well as a description of it. We'll put it together in poll form Tuesday night, and vote on it. We'll take the top three and vote again. So wel will know which book to get by this coming weekend.
Is that ok with everyone?

Thanks for confirming my suspicions! *sniff* But, I will not take my books and go home...the plan above sounds good to me.
I've already said it, but I'll nominate "On the Road" by Jack Kerouac...description below from Barnes & Noble.com:
...One of the most influential and important novels of the 20th century, this is the book that launched the Beat Generation and remains the bible of that literary movement. On the Road's publication in 1957 was a wake-up call to the American public that not all its youth were modeled after characters on Ozzie and Harriet: it portrayed Ivy League-educated white kids who smoked dope, hitchhiked, and frequented black jazz joints and Mexican whorehouses. It was the harbinger of the radical changes that would soon sweep society in the 1960s.
I'll go with the wishes of the masses, though, if there are only 2 of us on this list who haven't already read this....
