Still can't decide?  We certainly don't have all of the books that have been nominated for a Man Booker in our library collection, but if you want to find out more about your choices from the Man Booker longlists, you could start with the lists on Goodreads.com which will give you links to summaries, author info and readers' reviews.  Many of these books can be found at your public library, or you could even buy a book (and then highlight it to your heart's content!)
