The nominations process for our last monthly group read of 2013 has began.

Each member is welcome to make a recommendation within the overall genre of action/adventure. You may include a quick definition if you want in order to clarify your selection.

The theme should be related to the overall group purpose: action and adventure in some shape or form.

The poll will go up on November 3rd.

**We're not looking for actual book choices right now, just a general theme.***

Theme Suggestions:
*Science Fiction
*Geopolitical suspense/thriller
*Y/A Action/Adventure
*Survival
*Buddy/Friendship theme in A/A

Hi John. I added your suggestion, but we might need clarification. Can you give a short explanation of what you mean?

I'm sorry for the delay putting up the poll. It's been pretty busy for me. It's up now and it expires on the 13th.
