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

DEADLINE - 25July19 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:
. Biography of a famous person (Koren)

. Back to School - COVER shows something school related /or/ set in a school (SouthWestZippy)

. International Beer Day (Aug 2) - Alcoholic beverage on the COVER - BONUS if it's beer (Connie N)
. Senior Citizen Day - Main character is a senior (Patty)
. Hottest Year on Record - Title word "Hot" or "Heat" (Patti)

Sorry, Carol ... since your theme was the chosen theme for July, you are not eligible to nominate a theme for August. But you WILL be able to vote ....

SouthWestZippy | 295 comments Many areas it is back to school in August. Anything to do with school, on the cover(example, bus, school desk, school building etc.) , set in a school or character works at a school.

Connie N. International Beer Day is August 2nd. So how about a book with an alcoholic beverage on the cover (doesn't have to be beer).


message 7: by Patty (new)

Patty | 247 comments August 21st is Senior Citizen Day. Read a book with main character a Senior Citizen.
