Voted Titles

BookBite has voted.  See below for the 2011 reading list.  Our February meeting date has been changed to accomodate President's Day (2/21) and Valentine's Day (2/14).  I am waiting room reservation confirmation for Monday February 7.  Because we met one week early in January, we still have 4 weeks to explore Willa Cather's Death Comes for the Archbishop.
