Tomato Nation Read-Along #7: Poll

Submitted by on January 2, 2011 – 2:35 PM3 Comments

New year, new batch of books to choose from! David Foster Wallace finally got his moment last time, but there’s another Wallace-adjacent book in the poll this time around, we’ve got a couple of true-crime-ish selections, and Liberace and Howard Zinn both return for another shot at the spotlight.

The poll will stay open all week. Let’s read!

    Yay, a new read-along for a new year! It also gives me an excuse to go to the bookstore–I banned myself until I got through the ginormous bunch of books waiting in my bottom bedside drawer. But of COURSE I must make an exception for the Nation!

  • Tylia says:

    Shannon Dougherty wrote a book and I didn’t know! For shame me! For Shame!

  • Jo says:

    I voted for “Lost City of Z” because I just purchased a copy. But the Howard Zinn book is amazing and every American should read it.

    Also, I hear the Krakauer book on Pat Tillman is fantastic.
