Beth (bbulow) | 2403 comments Hi, everyone! My apologies for being a day late with posting the nominations thread! I've had a very active 5 year old nephew that has been keeping my husband and I busy for the weekend and am just now getting the chance to sit in front of the computer! :)

Remember to check out the guidelines under the "Book of the Month Reading" section if you're not familiar with them, and to check out the shelves for 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014 on our group bookshelf if it's something you're not sure if we've read as a group or not. Also try not to nominate a book by an author that we've read this year.

I think I'll let nominations stay up until March 2 since February is a short month, and I was a day late with posting the thread.

Nominations as of March 2:
1. The Reason by William Sirls
2. Interrupted: Life Beyond Words by Rachel Coker
3. An Uncommon Grace: A Novel by Serena B. Miller
4. Carolina Reckoning by Lisa Cox Carter
5. Larkspur Cove by Lisa Wingate
6. Edenbrooke by Julianne Donaldson

Staci, according to our guidelines (https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...), books of the month have to be released for 6 months or more. This one looks like it releases on April 1 of this year, so it won't work until later.

Do you mind nominating another? :)

Me too, she's one of those that I've seen a lot of other people read, but I haven't gotten to yet. I was happy to see that I have it on Kindle as well :)

I have Larkspur Cove on my Kindle and just finished The Reason which is one of the best books I've read in a long time.

I have both of these books on my Kindle and haven't read them. This will be good motivation!

Msgracie - random.org is just a website that randomly picks from among a list of choices. That way our moderators are not the ones selecting what we read but rather a random chooser. Sometimes we vote other times they use the random selector site. Hope this helps.

I have Larkspur Cove on my TBR pile, so I'll definitely be reading that one!


message 21: by Beth (new)

Beth (bbulow) | 2403 comments Great! :)
