We read The King's Curse in November 2014, Michelle, so you still have two nominations.(That thread is still open: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... .)
I nominate Mary Queen of Scots Downfall. The life and times of Henry Lord Darnley by Robert Stedall.
The only 'Life and Times of Henry Lord Darnley' I can find in the database is that by Henry Peter Brougham, which is 19th century. Is that what you mean?

The Tudors: The Complete Story of England's Most Notorious Dynasty
by G.J. Meyer
Sorry, I don’t know how to paste the Bookcover/link as others do, so I just pasted the link. Seems I saw a thread somewhere on how to do it, but can’t find it. Was using the mobile app on an iPad. Had to sign in to the website tonight just to reply. The mobile app won’t let me do a “reply”.
Where do I find the thread/list of the books that have already been read in the group read? I would like to nominate another book but don’t want to put a repeat book in.My first nomination (The Tudors - Meyer) was in last or the previous months poll so I figured I was safe to add that one :)
Thanks

Ok, found it. I see it was in the initial post!
To add the cover link rather than the text link: click 'add book/author,' look up your book, and there's an option for 'cover' at the bottom of that form. (I'm not sure how possible that is with the mobile app, which I have never used but hear nothing good about.)

Yes, the mobile app seems to work well for quickly looking up books, reviews etc., adding books to your shelves and such but as I am finding out, not so good for groups.
If anyone has a last-minute nomination to make, now is a good time, as I'll probably be starting the poll later today.
Alright, I will nominate C.J. Sansom's Sovereign, and The White Rose Murders by Paul Doherty.And with that I close nominations.
The poll is now open. You'll find it at the bottom of the group's Home page, at the top of its Polls page, or here: https://www.goodreads.com/poll/show/1... .
If the poll closed now (which it does not), the winner, by one vote, would be C.J. Sansom's Sovereign.

If it's in a series, can it be easily read as a stand-alone? If not, you might want to nominate the first book in the series, or the most recent book in it the group has not read together.
Can't remember what we've already read as a group? (Sometimes I can't, either.) There's a "group-reads" shelf on the group's Bookshelf.
Two nominations to a person, please.
