Nominate June 2017 Group Read **VOTING CLOSED**

[Barbara]

Nominations are now open for June 2017!

Kelly Caldwell, Jan Drexler, Beverly Lewis, Adina Senft, and Suzanne Fisher Woods are exempt from nomination as we've already read one of their 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!

That's why we have an automated selection -- no voting, no hanging chads!

Won't you throw a nomination into the mix Carolyn? What would you like to read and discuss?

[Carolyn]

my book was chosen last month, Barbara; so, I will let someone else have the chance this month. I would feel bad if it was chosen two months in a row.

I am so sorry Barbara. I must have misread and thought we had a couple of more days. I'm new to this group. I'll try to pay more attention next month.

[Carolyn]

it looks like we should maybe start a group read also on 'A plain Death' it's also on my library to read listing. Unfortunately, I don't have 'the silent order' see if I can get it from library, maybe.

[Donna]

The Silent Order looks interesting. Can't wait to read it.

Maybe start a buddy read...

[Carolyn]

secrets and mystery; also in amish fans request. This is nice to see; I also like the amish reading with some suspense.

Once we have read the book are we suppose to review it anywhere in here? I did a review on Goodreads but wasn't sure if I was suppose to put it anywhere else.

Thanks.

[Barbara]

We usually try to discuss what we thought here or what we liked. Discussion has been very slim lately.
