Instead of your moderators coming up with three "themes" for the group to vote on ... we invite YOU to nominate a theme for next month. Could be a specific genre, a cover image, a title word, an author initial...


ONE nomination per member
To encourage participation from more members, the person who nominated LAST month's winning theme cannot nominate this month. So, Connie, you won't be able to submit a nomination (though you WILL be able to vote).

DEADLINE - 26Aug17 5p CDT, or 5 nominations (whichever comes first)


Once the nominations are closed, we'll set up a poll for membership to vote on the theme for next month.

NOMINATED THEMES:
Patriot's Day - Main Char is a soldier or veteran (Licha-Olivia)
International Literacy Day - A book set in a different country from yours (Jaret)
Grandparents Day - Main Char is a grandparent (Patty)
Back to School - At least one scene takes place in a school (Koren)
Hispanic Heritage Month - A book set in a Spanish-speaking country (Book Concierge)
