Time for December nominations! It's a "What would you recommend to King?" month.
One nomination per person.
Link to the title using the add book/author option.
Check here to make sure that we haven't already read the book you're about to throw down: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... or https://www.goodreads.com/group/books...
No nomination of your own book. Have fun!! Nominations will be open till Nov 7th then the poll will go up.

Lena, this should be a book that you'd recommend to King to read, not one of his own books.

Lena Ah, I thought it was for our BOM. Oops.

Betsy Hetzel | 469 comments I just read an article about a recent Harvard Book Store event which featured Stephen King and Lee Child just sitting and talking about writing , their books and the respect that they have for one another. King has said on many occasions that he is a "self-declared Reacher fan", Reacher being the main character of Child's series and what a character he is!

That being said, I would like to nominate:
THE ENEMY, Lee Child
for our December read.

I tried to add book/author but it didn't work for me = sorry!

Thank you, Kandice, for providing the link requested. When I have some time, I am going to figure out what I did , or didn't do, to not be able to supply the link. Sorry that I'm such a dinosaur but appreciate help!

Sara the Librarian (museoffire) I think he'd be a pretty lousy friend if he's actually never read this but I'd like to add Lost Boy Lost Girl by Peter Straub Lost Boy Lost Girlby the inestimable Mr. Straub to the nominations.
