.
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, KOREN, you will *not* be able to submit a nomination (though you WILL be able to vote).

DEADLINE - 26May19 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:
. Summer Solstice - Book set in a warm climate (Connie N)
. The Sixth Month - Sixth book an author has written (Carol)
. Snow's over (Or is it?) - Books with a GREEN cover (Marti)
. Hot Time, Summer in the City - Books with "hot" covers: e.g. weather, steamy romance scene, etc... (Ev)
. It's June! - Read a book FIRST published in June - or- by an author born in June (Brittany)
. We All Scream for Ice Cream - Ice cream on the cover -or- main character loves, makes or sells ice cream. (SANDYE)

Connie N. Since the summer solstice occurs in June, how about a book set in a warm climate?


message 3: by Carol (new)

Carol | 4335 comments June is the 6th month of the year so how about a book that is the 6th book the author has written. (authors and book list can be found on FantasticFiction)


message 4: by Marti (new)

Marti (coloreader) Since we are still snowy in Colorado, how about anything with a predominately GREEN cover? 😃


message 5: by Ev (new)

Ev | 3 comments Books with hot covers—-weather, steamy romance scenes, stuff like that.


message 6: by Brittany (new)

Brittany McCann (brittanylmccann) | 20 comments Books originally published in June or by an author born in June

NOMINATIONS CLOSED

Poll will be up in the next couple of days (I'm on the road and I hate typing on this tablet)


message 8: by SANDYE (new)

SANDYE (sandye_c) June 7th is National chocolate ice cream day. June 27th is National ice cream cake day.

I nominate ice cream as a theme! Either ice cream on the cover, or the main character loves, makes, or sells ice cream!

We have a TIE ... Both Connie's and Ev's suggestions got 7 votes.

So we'll combine the tasks:

June's Theme: Summer Solstice, Hot Time! - Read a book set in a warm climate /or/ a book with a "hot" cover (e.g. beach scene, "steamy" romance scene, etc)
