November Book of the Month Nominations - Closed

[Sandra]

Nominations are now being accepted for our November Book of the Month. You may nominate any book from the Mystery/Suspense/Thriller genre or from any one of the many sub genres, with the exception of books by J.D. Robb and Nora Roberts. We explore Robb's In Death series in Buddy Reads & other discussions in this group. And we read & discuss Nora Roberts books with our sister group, Nora Roberts Groupies. We encourage you to join the discussions any time.

Nominations for our November Book of the Month will be accepted through Oct. 22. The poll for voting will open Oct. 23 and close at midnight on Oct.29.

Monthly Book Discussion Guidelines

-Each member may nominate 2 books per month. Please include a link to the book when you nominate it.

-Nominated books must be from the Mystery/Suspense/Thriller genres or one of the many sub genres.

-Nominated books must be the first book in a series unless the Robb group has read the preceding books previously.

-J.D. Robb and Nora Robert books are not eligible for nomination. We invite you to join us as we explore the In Death series books in our In Death Buddy Reads and enjoy discussing the Nora Roberts titles in our sister group, Nora Roberts Groupies.

-Should an issue arise that results in the winning book being disqualified, the book that received the 2nd most votes will automatically become the replacement Book of the Month.

I'm going to nominate Thread of Fear by Laura Griffin again. It came in 2nd in last month's poll only 2 votes behind the winning book.

I really want to start this series.

[Sandra]

I do too!

We discussed the possibility of bypassing Nov. nominations and choosing Thread of Fear as our Nov. Book of the Month because of issues that occurred with last's month poll winning book and the mid-October change to a different book. In hindsight, when a change in the book of the month became necessary, we probably should have then chosen the book that came in 2nd in that month's poll as the replacement. This stipulation will be added to guidelines for future reference should the situation occur again.

I have this book on my TBR too so wouldn't mind starting it either as a group read.

[Sandra]

I'd be in for that, Quynh. Let's see how nominations & the poll goes. If it's not a winner this month, we can set it up as a group buddy read.

Nominations are now being accepted...feel free to nominate the book of your choice for November.

I am down for this one!

[Sandra]

With only one book nomination, we'll be bypassing the November Book of the Month Poll. I hope everyone else is as excited about reading Thread of Fear as I am!

[Jonetta]

I am!
