YA Readers and More! discussion

Suggest some books to be the book of the month for August! Each person can only suggest up to 2 books.

Hey, not to be rude or anything, but shouldn't we choose one for August since July is almost over? Of course if we're reading it in july then that's okay as well.

Oh damn I was meant to write August. I'll fix it. I'm still tired!

Done! XD Thanks.

No problem.
Are there any rules for the books?
Like release dates or genres or anything?

They have to be YA, obviously. Fiction, mystery, thriller and fantasy. At the end, I will choose three books for August to read. You only have to choose one.

I’m gonna have to suggest Avalon by mindee arnett

I can't choose between
All of them have been on my tbr shelf.

Neither an I!! Ahhh! You can choose 2 of them, which means we need to eliminate one.

Fiction, mystery, thriller, and fantasy, hmm. Well, a lot of the YA books I read are romance. I've always been meaning to read Truly Devious, though, so I'll suggest that.

You can do romance too. I read thrillers with romance. Just any books as long as they are YA.

Oh, good. Well, I'll go with Truly Devious anyway because I want to read it and I don't think I ever will on my own.

Okay. I'm writing all the suggestions down.

I've read Truly Devious and it was awesome!!
You allowing romance makes this decision even harder!!
What does everyone else think? Which one should I eliminate?

Personally I say the last one, BUT I want to see what everyone thinks.

I’ll suggest The Silence Between Us by Alison Gervais and What I Carry by Jennifer Longo.

I'll suggest "All the bright places" by Jennifer Niven and "Six of crows" by Leigh Bardugo.

Thanks, I'll add them!
Also someone help me! I already have 6 books and there will be two more once Trisha decides which 2 she wants to suggest, how am I going to chose 3 of them?

Out of Trisha's, I would personally eliminate Poison Study. That's just my opinion, though. I read the opening of Poison Study and I couldn't stand it. It's Trisha's call, though.

I guess we can vote

Yes please vote. I'm very bad at choosing, it already took everything out of me to get to these three. Hold a poll or vote or something because I can't choose!!

Where is Keira? We need that poll created. If Keira will give me permission, I can make the poll, since I'm a mod, if Keira doesn't want to.

I've messaged you with the details of stuff.

I see that now. I just answered.

Hey, is there a specific place we're reading and discussing the BOTMs?

here if you like

Okay!!
Also, is it okay if I don't read Truly Devious again? I read it quite recently, and I really don't want to reread it so soon. I'd love to discuss it anyway.

Yes. There are 3 books they're in case you have already read one of them or you don't like the sound of them. You only have to read one of the books. If you would like, you can read 2 of them or all of them.

I'm only going to read Truly Devious; my August reading schedule is packed.

I was wondering if we should have separate topics for each book? That way it's less cluttered, clearer, and we won't spoil books for people who aren't reading them. What does everyone else think?

yes yes

good idea

I don't know what Keira thinks of it, though. I don't think anything should be changed without her permission.

oh i just added it...

oops

I see that. I hope Keira doesn't mind.

yea me too...

Maybe you should message her and ask if it's all right?

she didn't respond to my old message yet (also should we be talking here?)

(Probably not. Let's move it to the mods' chat.)
