The Selection process

Initially, our book selection process was very democratic; a person would make a suggestion for a book, and we would vote as a group whether or not we would choose the book.  We have, however; moved to more of a lottery system, to allow everyone the opportunity to select a book of their choosing.  For the lottery process, those who have not yet selected a book, put their request in, and if the request is drawn out from the basket, that's the book we read for the following month.  Once everyone has had the opportunity to choose a book, then the process begins all over again.
