Book lovers discussion

Let's nominate some books for our May group read!

Darkness becomes her by Kelly Keaton

Chime by Franny Billingsley

I haven't heard of either of these. I'm going to have to check them out.

Doomsday Book by Connie Willis

I second Doomsday Book!

Keep those nominations coming!

I nominate A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness.

Oh....I second this one too...lol...I've been wanting to read this!

I'll set up a poll for our May read tomorrow, so hurry up and get those nominations in!

The poll is up - please vote!

Sarah, I'm behind! I am going to skip the vote since it won't be fair for me to vote if I won't be able to read the book.

And the winner for May is...Doomsday Book!

Here we are on May 21st and nobody wants to say anything about May's book. Something similar seems to have happened in April. Has this sub-group become nothing more than a book recommendation post? I accept of course that there is nothing at all wrong with book recommendation, it can be very helpful, but I think we all hope for more from a discussion group????

I agree Bernard, and of course, I myself have been guilty of not reading the monthly selections as I am way behind in my reading schedule. I was thinking of canning the monthly group reads if the same thing happened with the upcoming June read. Maybe having a group read is not the right format for this group because the members of this group have such a variety of reading preferences.
