What Should We Read for August 2023?

[Linda]

Hi Everyone,

Does anyone have suggestions for our August book?

Post your recommendations here, and, as long as the title is available as an ebook and eaudiobook, as well as available in print or on CD in the library system, I'll add it to our upcoming poll.

Thanks!

The Covenant of Water

[Shannon]

I’m listening to the audiobook of Covenant of Water now. It is very long.

[Linda]

Mary, thanks for your suggestion. But Covenant of Water has a very long wait list in all formats at MHLS - it's just too new. Do you have another recommendation?

[Nancy]

Has the group already read Cloud Cuckoo Land? I recently finished it and am itching for discussion.

[Linda]

That's a good suggestion, Nancy. Thanks - I'll add it to our poll.

Where do we vote for August book?

[Linda]

Mary, I posted a poll a few days ago, but it's ended now. It was on the group home page, and also on the polls page. I'm sorry you didn't get a chance to vote, but I hope you'll still want to join the August discussion. And thanks again for your suggestions, that we'll consider for September.
