I think what Interbane is saying is that the Bible belongs in the fiction section.

As we get the fiction section running again we are faced with the problem of not having a ton of incoming suggestions. And we simply cannot put much weight behind suggestions from people with only a handful of posts on our forums. From experience these people have a very high probability of not sticking around to discuss the books they suggest.

What I do see here is a total of 6 people saying that "The Secret Garden" interests them. I'm going to go back through this thread and see if I'm missing anything. At this point I'd say I'm leaning towards just announcing "The Secret Garden" as the next fiction selection. Even in an actual poll 6 votes usually means a landslide victory, but when 6 people say they'll read a book just in the suggestion thread then I'd say we have a winner.

There really aren't many suggestions to add to a poll. I've gone through this thread a few times now and I see 3 books suggested by members with over 25 posts. I'll create a poll thread for those 3 books right now.
