Nominate April 2017 Group Read **VOTING CLOSED **

[Barbara]

Nominations are now open for March 2017!

Kelly Caldwell, Jan Drexler, and Suzanne Fisher Woods are exempt from nomination as we've already read one of her books this year, although we may make exceptions for novella collections that include one of these authors. If you're not sure if your book is eligible for nomination, please leave a comment and one of the moderators will get back to you!

Rules:
1. Any Amish-themed novel is eligible.
2. One nomination per person.
3. If two people nominate the same book, each person's vote counts. So the book will feature twice in the list to give each vote an equal chance.
4. Nominations run until the 14th of the month, with the winner announced on the 15th.
5. The winning book is chosen using Random.org to make it completely fair.
6. Please don't nominate a book we have already read. You can see our list of previous group reads here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... or look at the group read's bookshelf here: https://www.goodreads.com/group/books... (it includes both group read categories).
7. Only nominate the first book in a series UNLESS we have already read #1 (see above link). In this case, #2 is then eligible for nomination!

I haven't read anything by her yet, and since book #3 is getting ready to come out, I thought this might be the best time to nominate.
