It's time for nominations for our January group read. There is no theme for this month. By now everyone should have got the message that books read in the last 4 years are not eligible for nominations. Here is the message in case anyone missed it.
https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
And as always, authors can not promote their own books.

*Books that have the most seconds, thirds, fourths, etc. are more likely to make it onto the final poll.*

OK, i went back all the way to 2013 and deleted some of those. it seems it just random people adding books they've read to the group book shelve. Thank you for pointing that out.

you can nominate more but don't go too crazy. The nominations with the most +1 will make the poll first so no promises they will be on it.

message 32: by Jenny (new)

Jenny a.k.a....Jenny from the block | 31 comments I would like to nominate; “Visiting Hours”

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
A psychotic murderer searches for his next victim, a TV newswoman who survived an earlier attack, in a big-city hospital.
The plot focuses on a feminist journalist who becomes the target of a serial killer, who follows her to the hospital after attacking her in her home.
Sounds really scary

I'd like to add to the nomination for Blood And Rain along with My Sister, the Serial Killer

One of the other rules was not to nominate your own books.
They have a different thing they do where we feature authors.
