This book will be selected from an open nomination process. Any book may be nominated as long as it meets the group's BOM nomination criteria*.

The first 10 books that have second and third nominations will be eligible for being voted on by the membership via a poll.

The book with the highest amount of votes will be one of our Books of the Months.

*BOM Nomination Criteria:

All books nominated must be listed in our group under our ARR Program or have been listed in the past under Completed ARR Books.

Please do NOT nominate a book that is part of a series unless it is the first book (at the moderator's discretion)

Nominated books should not have recently been a BOM.
You should check the Book of the Month group bookshelf to make sure the book you nominate has not already been a group read.

Authors if your book wins the BOM you may contact one of the mod's if you’re interested in giving the members it for free with the condition they will write a review.

Anyone can nominate a book, but must be different member to second or third said book.

Any other questions leave us a message below.

Please remember that this BOTM Program is for books that are listed or were listed in our ARR Program.

Nominations will close on July 15th.

If her book was in the poll for July but isn't winning, can we nominate it again?

Helena Newbury (helenanewburyauthor) Sorry - newbie here :)

How do we actually nominate - by posting here?

Also, I notice there is a BOTM - General and a BOTM - Suspense. Are there other categories, or just those two?

Thanks!

Hi Helen, to nominate a book you just mention which book you would like to nominate here in the thread.

As for the categories, There is always 2 each month one is always general and the other topic is different this month is Suspense, July's was Women's Fiction.

Bridget ARR stand for Authors Requesting Reviews - if you look through all the genre's listed in our group these are the books that you can nominate or the ones in the completed section closer to the bottom of the threads.

message 22: by Raphaela (new)

Raphaela Jackson I'd like to nominate the book of Cristiane Serruya, The Modern Man. I don't know if it fits because it's a philosophical story. One of the best I've read. The Modern Man: A philosophical divagation about the evil banality of daily acts
