February Group Read - Nominations

[Kate]

As this group has grown to almost 30 members, I'm thinking it's time to plan a February group read! This month will be a "you-pick" month, meaning that there is not a set theme or genre. Please post 2 nominated books in the discussion below. During the last week of January, I'll set up a poll so we can vote on the top 2 to read/discuss the following month. Participation is not required if you are member, only encouraged. I've done this in other groups and have been introduced to some great reads :)

I nominate American Pastoral and American Psycho.

Okay, odd that both my noms have "American" in the title, but I'm running with it.

That's funny I sense a theme here. I actually have a book that I want to read for the popsugar challenge that would be perfect for this accidental American theme. I nominate
America's First Daughter
And I second American Psycho because I have never read it, but everyone talks about it!

[Abby]

Oliver Twist

The Bielski Brothers: The True Story of Three Men Who Defied the Nazis, Built a Village in the Forest, and Saved 1,200 Jews

[Amber]

Never read American Psycho, but would love to! It's right up my alley and I loved the movie.

Hey guys! The poll is up! If you go to the main Minnesota Readers page and click on "polls" on the right hand side, you should see it there. There is a write in option if you think of another book you'd like to nominate!
