Group Reads -> June 2023 -> Nomination thread (Cults) -> Won by The Followers by Rebecca Wait

[Roman Clodia]

I can't decide what to vote for! I may well change my mind...

[Judy]

I think they must have been special offers in March as the prices have now gone up to £4.99 (The Followers) and £3.99 (The Girls) - still not too bad price wise though. I should dash in as soon as you mention offers, Susan :)

[Susan]

Oh, that's a shame. Luckily, I grabbed The Followers 'just in case' and it does look as though it will be the winner.

[Roman Clodia]

Me too! The Girls has been on offer a number of times so you could always put it in your wishlist so you can see if there's a price drop.

[Susan]

The Restless Republic: Britain without a Crown is currently £2.99

I'll post this here too, as it is an upcoming buddy read.

[Judy]

The Followers and The Girls both look really good.

Yes indeed, I thought I'll just grab a 99 pence copy of The Followers and it's a fiver now. Ah well. I did get The Girls for 99 pence

[Susan]

Yes, grab those offers when they arrive. They are often 24-hours.

[Roman Clodia]

Yep, I've learnt my lesson having missed a few deals - now pounce on them immediately.

Nigeyb, Followers may price-drop again between now and June, assuming it wins - I put books I'm watching in my wishlist then it's easy to check.

[Jan C]

I see that The Followers is $2.99 here but I just don't have any interest in it. I was interested in Underground but it doesn't look like it'll win.

[Susan]

I thought they all look good. Miind you, I have only previously read The Girls, which would have been a good choice too, as there was so much to discuss.

[Susan]

Talking of deals. The Restless Republic: Britain without a Crown is now a kindle deal of the day, for anyone who didn't grab it already.

The Followers by Rebecca Wait is our winner
