Nominations are now open for January, 2024!

So far, no authors exempt from nomination, since we haven't read anything for 2024 although we may make exceptions for novella collections that include one of these authors. If you're not sure if your book is eligible for nomination, please leave a comment and one of the moderators will get back to you!

Rules:
1. Any Amish-themed novel is eligible.
2. One nomination per person.
3. If two people nominate the same book, each person's vote counts. So the book will feature twice in the list to give each vote an equal chance.
4. Nominations run until the 14th of the month, with the winner announced on the 15th.
5. The winning book is chosen using Random.org to make it completely fair.
6. Please don't nominate a book we have already read. You can see our list of previous group reads here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... or look at the group read's bookshelf here: https://www.goodreads.com/group/books... (it includes the Christian group read as well).
7. Only nominate the first book in a series UNLESS we have already read #1 (see above link). In this case, #2 is then eligible for nomination!

Nominate away!!

Apparently random.org didn't draw their numbers. It's what we use and it seems to have worked for the past 13 years.

Marlayne Giron (thevictorbook) Leaving your group I find it very hard to believe that this happened two months in a row by random pick

I was surprised with so many nominations that your book didn't get picked again. I pop the numbers in and it gives me a number back.

I'm sorry you feel that you need to leave the group Marlayne. Take care.
