    no, Virus, it is precisely non-SK book club. The rest of the site may be called SK-reading book club, so we decided to keep his books in their threads.

    Jean, I apologize for not reading more carefully. Well in that case, I do not have a nomination at this time but would still like to participate.

    Sounds great turtle. I might just try to squeeze Tommyknockers in between The Stand and this upcoming book (time premitting). If it is non-SK fiction, I would have to nominate a Purple Place for Dying but think it is a dead horse considering it is the third book in a 21 book series.

    As for my opinion on Rosemary's baby:

    Twilight Spoilers:
    Spoiler:
    Almost Forgot About Twilight by me!
    Haven't seen her name in a long time
    But when the books come in I start crying
    A new book and I've lost my mind
    I live for the day when the craze is dying

    I've got books to read, and none of hers I wanna see
    I'd rather read Rosemary's Baby
    Read some Stephen King, or just about anything
    Cuz I'd rather read Rosemary's Baby

    I can't help but feel lonely
    But her books won't make me feel better
    Pretty soon you'll find it's the only
    thing you do is try to keep it together

    I'm nice to you, I'd rather read something true
    instead of Bella complaining she's somebody's baby
    I could wear a smile if you stayed away a while
    But how long before she has the baby?

    Because I guess I'm not too bright
    Well, I almost forgot about twilight
    I just want them out of sight
    Don't want to hear about Jake or Edward, I got no fight

    Books are wonderful, when they're beautiful
    But I'm already somebody's baby
    And if I went with you I'd disappoint you too
    Well, I'm done hearing about Bella's baby
    Or who she's going to have as her baby

    thanks jean

    Looks like Rosemary's baby is the winner.

    Lets give it a couple of weeks and then I can pop a thread up for Rosemarys baby (I will check first that there is not already one on the go)

    Speak to you all soon

    I wish Brice would get his ass here NOW

    seriously, we need him for this. He really really wanted to discuss it (just like bears)

    Hmm...I've never read Rosemary's Baby. I guess I'll have to go pick up a copy after I finish my new book.

    since there hasn't been much pressure there doesn't seem to be any hurry; what if we wait for Brice some longer? He said in FB he was going to plague the Internet with his presence more often now; I know he would be interested.

    We should be nominating again soon

    At the moment we are about to discuss Rosemarys baby - please feel free to come and join us if you have read the book

    In regards to Room, I read this and I agree a very thought provoking book (indeed, my sister even refused to read it)
