Here is an updated list of what's coming up. Remember, I'm ALWAYS open for suggestions (Alice Network came from a suggestion on one of my videos). So go ahead and let me know any that you think would make for some good discussion. I'm commenting here so those on your phones will see this under unread comments and hopefully see the list! :)

For July or August what about a beach read? I think it is hard to define what a beach read is but I was thinking of something that is kind fun and light with a little romance and published just before or during the summer months.

I saw that you hauled The Simplicity of Cider, and thought that might be a good fit.

Hi! How about "thirteen' by Steve Cavanagh for thriller in July

I'd love to read Life After Life by Kate Atkinson with this group. A beachy read sounds nice. It's not light reading, but may I suggest Beach Music by Pat Conroy?

Would love to read Ruth Ware’s In a Dark Dark Wood for a thriller. Hers Are great but not gory. And maybe Elin Hilderbrand for a “beachy” read. Love all the other suggestions!

Here are some books that might work for future readalongs:
America's First Daughter
Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry
Snow Flower and the Secret Fan
Thanks!

I second America’s First Daughter👍 I have it in my TBR bookcase

Are you planning on doing a nonfiction for November?

Nonfiction November! Yes, please!

Letter from a stranger by barbata taylor bradford for November

I’m guessing we will be doing a nonfiction for November?

Dec. suggestions - Little Women, Christmas in Vermont by Anita Hughes, or an oldy The Bird's Christmas Carol by the same author that wrote Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm K. D. Wiggin.

Oooo I like the idea of Little Women in December!

Little women would be fun!

Little Woman would be great for December

I would love to do Little Women for December!

Just curious if the books for the upcoming months have been announced. I would love to order from my local bookstore, but shipping is slow right now, so I need to put my order in well in advance to get the books in time. I feel like I saw the list somewhere, but now I can’t find it. Thanks!

I’ll look forward to joining in October. I have both those books unread. So will encourage me to get to them😁
