Nominations are now open for February, 2024!

So far, the author exempt from nomination, since we've already selected one of their books this year, is Jerry Eicher, 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!!

#1. A Bee In Her Bonnet (Honeybee Sisters #2) by Jennifer Beckstrand -- Raven
#2. A Bee In Her Bonnet (Honeybee Sisters #2) by Jennifer Beckstrand -- Katrina

I'm assuming your nomination is for Amish Love Letters, the anthology by Shelley Shepard Gray, Charlotte Hubbard & Rosalind Lauer. Please let me know if this isn't the right choice as there are other choices.
