AHHH! Where have I been for the past few days?? Nominations are WAY past due. I apologize everyone. I have dropped the ball! Anyways..nominations for November will be accepted starting NOW! :)

For November we will be reading 2 books as usual. You are only able to nominate for one category. We will be having our "regular" fiction/non-fiction category (category 1) where you can nominate anything and then our "themed" category (category 2). The theme for the month of November is fantasy/science fiction. I'm sure alot of people will be feeling stressed with school in November and if you are anything like me..sometimes I like to just get out of my daily life and read about something WAY different.
