Wow, everyone! It's time to pick a nice read that will usher in the new year! There is no theme, just something you think would be nice to start the year off with. The usual rules apply: 50 years or older, written by a woman, and can't have been read by the group in the past three years.
Please limit your nominations to a max of two per person.
Please state if you can lead.
Nominations end November 16th.
