Nominations for next book?

Is it too soon to start nominating books for the next round? We could always just recycle the losers (such a harsh word) from the last round. But maybe we could have a rule that if a book doesn't make it in one round it can never be nominated again. There are so many books that this forces us to always have fresh books on the list...

I think it depends why the book wasn't chosen.

For example, The Fortress of Solitude or Water for Elephants people had read before. No reason to re-suggest. However, if someone feels strongly about a book, no reason not to suggest again. Case in point is The Book Thief which I may re-suggest first because everyone I know who has read it really likes it. Second, it has been translated into Hebrew.

Hope that gives my opinion on your question.
