    Would it be bad form if I changed my mind?

    To break the tie, I mean.

    I left the poll open for vote changes if members would like. I don't mind.

    Unless someone else foils my plan, there's no tie now.

    Alright everyone, it looks like Carrie Fisher's comedic autobiography Wishful Drinking is this month's winner for the WF June book club! I'm excited to get started on this one, as it's a light and fun read. I hope you pay close attention to the craft of this, as well as the delivery for her humor and biography. I look forward to getting the discussion started on June 20th. Thanks for all the May participation, and for continued interest in keeping the club going!

    Sorry, I've kind of lost touch here. Has a book been selected for June reading? Is it the Carrie Fisher one?

    Okay, I've just downloaded that one as well. I'm finished with the beta reading I was working on, so hopefully I'll get that one read.
