It can be combined or not. I think a current events feature might be interesting for the group.

Hello fellow Crime, Mystery, and Thriller readers!
📣ANNOUNCEMENTS📣
We are looking for a few moderators to help with Greeting, Challenges, Games, Cozies and In the News. If you are interested please contact Gem.
It was a close poll with 90 members voting "yea" and 80 voting "nay," therefore our Paperback Rule will remain in place.
The results for the Questions of the Month, "Do you read books in a series out of order?" was 132 for No and 50 for yes. There will be a followup regarding that question in our May Polls.
