It's time for everyone to nominate a book for our September 2019 group read.

BUT - our format has changed for 2019!

There will be twelve tasks - a different one each month - open for nomination to fit that task.

For September's read we are looking for books by a favourite author which you haven't read yet
So, nominate a crime/mystery/thriller/suspense book to cover September's task :)

Don't forget - 1st in a series, if a series

This thread will be open until 10th August, then nominations will go to the vote.

Authors and publishers, please don't nominate your own work!

Sorry Sarah, that one is 3rd in the series :) It needs to be #1 or a standalone.


Lee at ReadWriteWish (leeatreadwritewish) | 242 comments Actually quite difficult to find a stand alone book by a fav author! How about Good Girl, Bad Girl by Michael Robotham

Good Girl, Bad Girl (Cyrus Haven, #1) by Michael Robotham
