DiverseCity discussion

Hey guys!! I know that we're still in the process of reading Whichwood, but December is slowly creeping its way upon us (which is totally crazy!) Does anyone have any suggestions for our book of the month? This way we can have a poll up for a more lengthy time :)

Hi everyone!! For the December poll, I think it would be best if we all gave one book that we'd each like for the December Book of the Month and then I'll set up a poll :) My book choice is The Love Letters of Abelard and Lily!

P.S. I'm so sorry I've been inactive on the Whichwood discussion, my book has not come yet, it seems to have been lost in the mail :(

Thanks!!!

Can I please choose My Sister Rosa by Justine Larbalestier. If it isn't diverse, can you let me know. (I think it is; I did a little research and I think it counts). Thank you!

The book you chose sounds amazing though ana! I'm up for reading that too!

I’ve heard of My Sister Rosa!!! It sounds soooo good!!

And thank you!! I’ll have the poll up as soon as everyone decides on a book :)

Yeah same, sorry for my absence, my copy of Whichwood literally only turned up yesterday right in time for the last day of November hoorah! And I've only just started reading it!

My nomination is Rules of Rain by Leah Scheier!
I've looked up on both the books you guys suggested and they both look great! My Sister Rosa sounds super creepy too!

Sounds amazing Liv! You two are tempting not to vote for my own book... hahaha

I also love the sound of Language of Thornes 😂🙈 and voted for it last month so honestly happy with any one of these four!

Why don't we pre plan and use these four Book as the books for the next four months? Or is that a bad idea?

No that's a good idea, and it will solve the problem of not having books arrive in time!

Yaaaaas!!! 🎉🎉 now we just have to choose the order. I'm honestly up for whatever 😊

So how about:
December: Rules of Rain
January: The Love Letters of Abelard and Lily
February: Language of Thorns
March: my Sister Rosa

Is this order okay?

Yay! Is everyone agreed?

Great idea!! I love the order!

March is supposed to say My Sister Rosa. Not sure if it's just my phone or if I forgot to type the whole thing 😂

So the December book of the month is Rules of Rain! 😊

As long as Olivia agrees with the order obviously

oh yeah I totally agree haha!

Guys I just looked and Rules of Rain isn’t released until January on amazon. Not sure if this is just the uk or everywhere? Have any of you guys got your copy yet???

I got mine from The Book Depository and it's been dispatched. It says it was released on the 5th December and I've been emailed to say it's been dispatched. I got it for £6.78 and it's £6.83 now

Here's the link: https://www.bookdepository.com/Rules-...

Yesterday I was emailed to say it was on its way :) and I am obviously in the UK

I’m pretty sure it’s just in the U.K!! Ours got released on the fifth of December in the states, and my copy should be arriving next week. I hope you’re able to get it!

Thanks Nicole, just got it ordered! Hopefully it will get here soon!

YAAAAAY!! 🎉
