It's time to nominate some books for February's group reads!
If you haven't done this before, our rules can be found here: http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/2... If you have questions, please ask.

Our theme for February is Classics! You may nominate 2 Young Adult books, one that is themed and one that is not. Please label your books as themed and non-themed. Nominations will run for about a week.


Don't forget to check the group's bookshelf for books we've already read. http://www.goodreads.com/group/booksh...

Please include authors' names when nominating. Authors may not nominate their own books!

Thanks!

Karis Jacobstein (yalitwit) | 419 comments Themed: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll

Non-themed: Splintered by A.G. Howard (An Alice re-telling, and it is MAGNIFICENT! Thought it might be cool to compare...)

Kellee Moye (kelleemoye) I'll still with Karis's Themed and I'll nominate The Looking Glass Wars by Frank Beddor which is a twist on Alice as well :)

Sorry William, our rules state that authors cannot nominate their own books... Also, this is a young adult group and if I'm not mistaken, your book is for much younger children so it is not the right audience here.
