Fiction Suggestions needed for our Nov. & Dec. Fiction Discussion
What would you like to read as a group in November and December? Please post more than just a book title if you would really like your suggestions to be considered. Tell us about the book, whether in your own words or a copied and pasted book review. And most importantly give us a link to where we can research your book suggestion on Amazon.com.
If you are a brand new member you should start posting on the forums. We tend to not take book suggestions from members with less than 25 posts as there is very little chance of those new members actually sticking around to discuss the winning book. We know this from 8 years of experience. So if you're new to BookTalk.org and really plan to participate in the book discussion tell us so. Say something so that we know you aren't simply plugging your own book or your clients book or maybe a friends book.
After you have suggested a book or two please take a few minutes and look at the book suggestions your fellow members have made. Are any appealing to you? Which ones would you read? Which ones don't you like? Please give us feedback so we know the probability of any particular book being a good discussion book. The more positive comments on a book that has been suggested the higher the chance you'll see it on the book poll.
Once we have a handful of books suggested we'll narrow the pile to just three books. Those three books will be placed on a poll and everyone with 25 or more posts on the forums will be allowed to vote. So again, if you're new start posting on the forums. Get involved in the various discussions happening right now. We have to believe you are going to stick around or we won't accept your suggestions or book poll votes.
So what fiction book would you like to read next?
