This all sounds great. I am sorry about your ill-health and the death in the family, however. Offering well-wishes for hope and healing.
thank you for this. ive been lurking a long time and have decided to participate. im reading Cards on the Table and on the waiting list for The Favorite Sister. Have been in a reading slump, so hoping this will kick start it! Thank you for all the hard work!!!
I'm sorry to hear of your ill health and death in the family. I thought I'd take this chance to say how much I appreciate your newsletters with links to all the various activities. Some groups just send a message to check the discussion boards (or don't send a message at all), so it's a real treat to have everything in one place.Get better and stay well, and thanks also to Jenny for covering for you during your absence.
Thank you, Gem and Jenny. So glad you are back, Gem. I am so sorry for your recent hard times.
Thank you, Patty and Beth, for your kind words. I have to say thank you to Sheri for her assistance during the time Gem was away sick. :)

Hello fellow Crime, Mystery, and Thriller readers!
🎤ANNOUNCEMENTS📣
❤️I wanted to give Jenny a shout out and a huge thank you for stepping in and handling all the admin responsibilities that we usually share while I was ill (for three months) and dealing with a death in the family.
Thank you so much Jenny! 💐
📚We will be reading one book in each category for July and August since we almost always have a marked decline in participation over the northern hemisphere summer months. This will allow everyone to extra reading time. (The exception will be in the Focus on the Author section.)
🌎🌏There has been some interest in a Book of the Month being read by Country so we'll give this a trial run. This discussion will serve as our running list of countries that we will select our books based on. A nomination discussion for our first Country read will open on July 1.
