July is here #AuthorAMonth readers! It‘s time to try a classic with Virginia Woolf. I‘m going with one of her short books on Serial Reader. What do you plan to read?

#AuthorAMonth is a no pressure challenge to honor Litsy nominated and voted upon authors. There are several prizes at the end of the year. Track your reading and see the rules on the google sheet linked below.

As always let me know if you‘d like to be added or taken off the list.📚

willaful I've never had any luck reading Woolf. What would people say is her most accessible book? 1w
AmyG I am going to pass this month as I will be on vacation. 1w
vonnie862 I've never read her before. I wonder which book to choose. 1w
AllDebooks @willaful @vonnie862 I would suggest one of he early novels The Voyage Out or Night and Day or a short story collection. 1w
MemoirsForMe I‘ll be joining the party and reading To the Lighthouse. Maybe even 1w
MemoirsForMe @AmyG Happy Vacationing! ❤️🎉🏖️ 1w
CatLass007 Orlando, Mrs. Dalloway, and A Writer‘s Diary are free on Audible. Orlando and Mrs. Dalloway are my priorities, and I might at least begin A Writer‘s Diary. 1w
tpixie It‘s only 12 issues on Serial Reader (edited) 1w
vlwelser I have an old copy of this that has been hiding in my secret TBR cupboard. 1w
AmyG @MemoirsForMe Thank You! 1w
Melismatic Giving Serial Reader a try! Thanks for the suggestion! Starting with Monday or Tuesday and then perhaps tackling Mrs Dalloway 1w
tpixie I‘ve been hoping to do a mini immersion with Virginia Woolf. So hopefully I can take advantage of this month and do it! 1w
julieclair I‘m doing To the Lighthouse on Serial Reader. 1w

For July #AuthorAMonth. I have found Serial Reader to be a great way to get through classics. It‘s a free ap, and there are a lot of Woolf books on there, from 7-25 “issues”. Each “issue” is about a 10 minute read, making it easy to read for 2 short sessions a day and complete a tough classic in a month! I think I‘ll probably read her this way.

Hello #AuthorAMonth readers! We‘re down to about one week left with June‘s author John Scalzi. I hope he‘s been making you laugh.

July brings us to a classic with Virginia Woolf. I haven‘t read anything by her before and I‘m looking forward to it! Any recommendations for where to start?

Susanita I tried her once before but didn‘t get very far. This time I‘m going with 3w
Bookwormjillk Zoinks! I need to get going on June! 3w
Caroline2 Oh good idea @Susanita I might copy you. 👍 3w
dariazeoli I had OldMan‘sWar in my TBR for years and I‘m thrilled to have finally checked it off! I‘m a little intimidated to try Woolf again. 3w
Soubhiville @Bookwormjillk He‘s usually a fast and fun read, so a week hopefully will be enough time for you to read something if you want to. 😁 3w
Sace I had planned to skip the July author but then I discovered I had a copy of Mrs Dalloway (the perils of having too many books…you sometimes forfeit what you have). I‘m a little intimidated by her though. I‘ve never read her. 3w
AmyG Whelp, I started my book but I won‘t finish it this month. Reading has been tough these days….plus lots going on as summers are always busy around here. I will finish it, just not in June. 3w
Deblovestoread I‘ve been lousy this year but did listen to his latest this month. It was ok but no 3w
willaful @Deblovestoread Agreed! I tried to read Fuzzy Nation but really didn't see the need for another version of Little Fuzzy. 3w
CatLass007 I read a short story, The President‘s Brain is Missing, and the three novellas that make up The Dispatcher series. I‘ve got a couple of others that I probably won‘t get to before the end of the month but maybe before the end of the year. For Virginia Woolf, I have three that I got free on Audible, but probably will only get to two of them, Orlando, and Mrs. Dalloway. 3w
julieclair I have been looking forward to reading Starter Villain all month, and still haven‘t gotten to it. I think it may spill over into July. 😉😎 2w
gossamerchild I think I'm going to read A Room of One's Own, as I've never actually read it. I read Orlando in college and it was...challenging, but fascinating. 2w

Julsmarshall Starter Villain was a favorite of mine, I‘ll be reading When the Moon Hits Your Eye. 1mo
JacqMac This year‘s list is so good, but I‘m so far behind. I still have some months on my TBR. I‘ll catch up eventually. lol 1mo
willaful Reading When the Moon Hits Your Eye. I've really liked Red Shirts (might reread), Starter Villain, the Kaiju Preservation Society and Lock In. I also enjoyed his nonfiction Your Hate Mail Will Be Graded. 1mo

Hooked_on_books It‘s a big one, right? That‘ll be me next year. I didn‘t react much to 40, but then 41 hit me harder, so I wonder if the same thing will happen at 50. 1mo
julieclair I‘ll be reading 1mo

May is almost over #AuthorAMonth readers. It seems most folks have really liked their Percival Everett books 🙂.

In a few days we‘ll be picking up John Scalzi. I‘m going to have to go to the library to see what they have, since annoyingly Amazon has rights to most of his recent books and audiobooks. That really bugs me. But still, I‘m looking forward to it because he always makes me laugh.

CatLass007 I love this group! I have met so many new-to-me authors. It‘s finally given me the impetus to read books by Roxane Gay and Leigh Bardugo that I already own. And Kate Quinn has become a new “must buy” author. 2mo
Jess This is the month I‘m most looking forward to! I have 4 of his books on my shelves and hope to get to all of them. So excited. 2mo
BarkingMadRead I‘m reading Trees! I also have James on audio, but I don‘t think I‘ll get to it this month 2mo

Happy Sunday #AuthorAMonth readers! Happy Easter if you celebrate.

We are more than halfway through April already, and I hope you‘re enjoying this month‘s author Kate Quinn. Your reviews have inspired me to add a few of her books to my TBR.

A look ahead to May which will bring Percival Everett. Perhaps you are ready to place your holds or orders soon.

Happy Reading!

Less than a week left in March with Leigh Bardugo #AuthorAMonth readers! I really enjoyed my reads with Bardugo, and read more than I‘d planned to.

Now might be a good time for you to put in holds or orders for our April author, Kate Quinn.

Happy Reading 📚

tpixie @Soubhiville I plan to read The Briar Club and The Huntress. I may re- read The Alice Network ( which I loved) , since a character in that is makes a cameo in The Huntress. 4mo

CatLass007 I enjoyed several of Leigh Bardugo‘s books this month. @Soubhiville will you please let the group know that there are at least six Kate Quinn books available for free on Audible. I‘m having a hard time narrowing things down to just a couple. (edited) 3mo

It‘s the last day of February #AuthorAMonth readers. I hope your time with Roxane Gay has been meaningful. I know she‘s not a gentle easy read.

Tomorrow we‘ll be picking up our March author Leigh Bardugo. Dropping into some fantasy!

I‘ll proofread the 2025 google form and attach it to tomorrow‘s post, for those ready to start tracking your books.

Have a great day, Happy Reading.

We‘re halfway through January already #AuthorAMonth readers. I hope you‘re enjoying your time with Dorothy L Sayers.

If you want to start thinking about February you may want to put a hold or order in for your Roxane Gay books. I highly recommend watching some of her interviews at various author events on YouTube as well. I‘ll post links to one or two in February. Happy Reading! 📚🙂❤️

Happy New Year! It‘s time to start our first #AuthorAMonth read of 2025, Dorothy L Sayers. I had actually not heard of her before nominations, so she‘s new to me. Have you chosen your book yet?

Please be sure your 2024 form is complete if you want to be eligible for a prize. I‘ll be announcing winners this Saturday. The link is in a recent post under this book title.

As always let me know if you‘d like to be added to my tag list for 2025.

Another year of #AuthorAMonth has almost ended. I can‘t believe it. 2025 will be our 7th year of reading authors nominated by and voted on by the Litsy community, celebrating and discovering new authors together!

Please be sure to go edit your AAM google form. I need everyone to do this, because I just looked at the spreadsheet and realized I forgot to ask for your Litsy names! 🤦

https://forms.gle/r6EydHX3GmrfYenA8. ⬇️

Soubhiville Also if you haven‘t yet, be sure to let me know below with a comment that you would like to be tagged on next year‘s AAM posts. (If you have already and you tell me again you‘ll get added to the list a second time.)

I will be drawing and announcing winners Saturday January 4th, and I‘ll post one more reminder on the 2nd.
6mo
Soubhiville One last reminder that we should be wrapping up with Sir Terry Pratchett tomorrow and finding Dorothy L Sayers titles for our first AAM of 2025.

Happy Reading Everyone!

#AuthorAMonth readers, we have come to the final week of 2024. Our final week of Terry Pratchett. I hope you‘ve found something you enjoyed by him.

With the New Year we will move on to our January author, Dorothy L Sayers. I‘ll be seeing what my library has by her, how about you?

It‘s also time to finalize your #AAM google form. I will be looking at results and drawing and announcing winners on January 4th. All the rules are on the form ⬇️

Soubhiville Can someone please comment that the link and form have worked ok for you? (Or haven‘t if that‘s the case) 7mo

mom2bugnbee I fell off of the wagon this year, but I'm excited to jump back in in 2025! Thank you for always organizing so well! 7mo
mom2bugnbee @dabbe I think that the graphic is for 2024 - Jane Austen was our author this past January. SYers is Jan 2025. 7mo
dabbe @mom2bugnbee Shit. As a former English teacher, you think I'd read the WHOLE graphic. Sheesh. 🙄 Thanks! 😂 7mo
mom2bugnbee @dabbe Haha! No worries! 😂 6mo

Only two weeks left in 2024? Wow. I hope your time with Terry Pratchett is going well #AuthorAMonth readers!

In case you didn‘t know, there is a Discworld book that‘s Christmasy themed! Hogfather. And there is a movie adaptation, I believe available to watch on YouTube.

Reminders that our first author of 2025 is Dorothy L Sayers, to go to the last post under this book title to get the StoryGraph link, and get on next year‘s tag list.

It‘s December, our final 2024 #AuthorAMonth! Time to pull out our Terry Pratchett books. What are you planning to read?

#AuthorAMonth is a no-pressure, no-commitment Litsy challenge. The goal is to celebrate the works of a particular author each month. Authors were chosen through polls by Litsy participants. Read as many as you like, skip months when needed, it's entirely up to you! ⬇️

Soubhiville There will be some prizes sent at the end of the year:

-There will be ONE prize book box for "MOST READ." In order to qualify, books must be FINISHED in the appropriate month. (Bails will not be counted.) It is up to you to keep track by editing your Google form. (this prize can only be won once, there will be a different winner every year.) ⬇️
7mo
Soubhiville -There will be one prize randomly chosen from the "EVERY MONTH CLUB". To qualify for this prize you must read one or more book every month for the qualifying author. For this category BAILS COUNT. The winners will be chosen randomly from the participants that qualify for the club.

-There will also be one or more random prizes sent to any randomly drawn participant who has FINISHED at least one qualifying book during the year. ⬇️
7mo
Soubhiville Once you start your Google form you will get an email confirmation. Hold on to that email, it gives you access to edit the form. You should also be able to access it through your Google Drive. I can not access it for you though, and if you can‘t get to the form you started my link will make you start a new form. It is up to you if you track monthly with the form or just fill it out at the end of the year. ⬇️ 7mo

Soubhiville I won‘t be looking at it until January of 2025.

Only Listy members who are still active in the Listy community at the time of drawings will qualify.

Here is the link to the Google form:

https://forms.gle/r6EydHX3GmrfYenA8

As always, let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the tag list. 🙂📚. Happy Reading!
7mo
Soubhiville @AllDebooks that sounds fun! 7mo
vonnie862 I think I'm going to start with the first book in the Discworld series. 7mo
dariazeoli I‘ve got this one on my Kindle 7mo
Andrew65 I looking forward to reading a Terry Pratchett book this month, so far only read Good Omens that he co-authored. 7mo
Andrew65 @AllDebooks That seems an appropriate book for December, might check this one out. 7mo
AmyG Skipping as Pratchett is not for me. Enjoy everyone! 7mo
AllDebooks @Andrew65 🙂 I recommend his short stories. This was very good 7mo
bookwyrm7 Please add me to the tag list. I can't join this month but will do so next year. Are the prizes also for those in Europe, or only in a certain country? 7mo
JacqMac I bought a beautiful hardcover of this one and I can‘t wait to start. 7mo
Jess I just started A Stroke of a Pen on audio and it is so fun. The first story was read by David Tennent and the second by Claire Foy. Great start! 7mo
Larkken Yay! Love sir terry. I may start a discworld reread… we‘ll see 7mo
Soubhiville @bookwyrm7 you are added! I will ship to Europe for the big prize, for the smaller ones I‘m more likely to get a gift card to the bookstore of your choice, as overseas shipping from the states is really expensive. 7mo
Soubhiville @vonnie862 if you don‘t love the first Discworld book, don‘t let it put you off the rest. Most of his fans feel he didn‘t get his stride until a few books in and the first two aren‘t nearly as good. 7mo
Soubhiville @Jess I didn‘t know the audio had multiple narrators! I loved reading this one though, some great stories. 7mo
willaful Can you tag me for next year please? And I'll be reading The Truth this month, for #OokBookClub. 7mo
Soubhiville @willaful you‘re added 7mo
Andrew65 @AllDebooks Thanks, will see if I can get hold of this. 7mo
bookwyrm7 @Soubhiville Thanks! That's perfectly fine 👌 7mo

We‘re more than halfway through November #AuthorAMonth readers! I hope you‘re enjoying your time with Sarah Addison Allen. I‘m almost finished with my book for the month, Other Birds, and I really like it.

December brings us one of my very favorite authors, Terry Pratchett. I can‘t wait for you to experience him if it‘s your first time! If you need recommendations I‘ll make a couple in the comments. 🙂💛📚

See All 19 Comments
AllDebooks I‘ve skipped this month, but I am so excited to read Terry Pratchett next month 😊 8mo
Soubhiville Terry Pratchett recommendations: If you are new to TP, he‘s best known for his Discworld series. I don‘t recommend starting with the first book however, as he didn‘t really develop his style and get his stride until a few books in. I think a great place to start is with the first Night Watch book- 8mo
Soubhiville Guards! Guards! Can be read as a stand alone, or if you love the characters you can follow them into more adventures. Another great start would be the first Witches book, also can stand alone but can follow characters to additional books- 8mo
Soubhiville If you love short stories I thoroughly enjoyed 8mo
Soubhiville If you‘re a YA lover the first Tiffany Aching book is fun. It‘s also Discworld, also can stand alone but does start a series- 8mo
TheSpineView I started The Sugar Queen yesterday. I had to wait on a library hold. Liking it so far. 8mo
AmyG I am going to skip Terry Pratchett…sadly, not for me. But I enjoyed this month‘s book 8mo
Bookwormjillk Thanks for the recommendations! A new author for me. 8mo
PurpleyPumpkin I just finished this one today! Throughly enjoyed it. 😁 8mo
Karisimo @Soubhiville thanks for the suggestion! 8mo
Yenya1954 I‘ve just borrowed The Long Earth. 8mo
Soubhiville @Yenya1954 I‘ll be interested in your opinion on that one. I liked it but it‘s very very different from his other stuff, as he‘s partnered with a scifi writer for it. Grammy M liked this series: 8mo
Soubhiville @vonnie862 see above for a few recommendations of good first-tastes of Discworld. 🙂 7mo

Here is the big announcement #AuthorAMonth readers! Here are our 2025 authors!

The most votes went to Leigh Bardugo this year, then Kate Quinn, then Octavia Butler so I decided to include her as a repeat author.

What do you think? Who are you excited for? Any suggestions for different ways to run the voting next year?

Thank you all for your nominations and your votes. I‘m pleased with the 2025 list, should be some great reading.

CatLass007 This is great! There‘s a wonderful mix of familiar authors and new authors. I look forward to them all!! 8mo

I just voted and I‘m so excited. This is definitely a favorite yearly challenge. I always vote for authors on my tbr list but even if they don‘t get picked for the year I have always enjoyed finding new authors I love. So even if you don‘t vote or read an #authoramonth, I recommend trying it out for a month or two and learn about new to you authors! I‘m reading more books by authors read earlier this year like Klune and SA Cosby. @Soubhiville

It‘s time! Time for nominations for authors you‘d like to see us read for next year‘s #AuthorAMonth. Please comment with your suggestions. I‘ll give this post a week, the release the poll.

2025 will be our seventh year with this challenge! Wow.

Along with your nominations, please say if you would prefer that we have all new authors or if you think we could repeat some from previous years if they get enough votes. Suggestions appreciated. 🙂📚💛

TheBookHippie I can‘t imagine repeats would matter of some authors who have many many books. 8mo
TheBookHippie Shakespeare 👀♥️ I miss reading it regularly .. 8mo
TheBookHippie Allison Winn Scotch she has been such a voice for women I‘d love to honor her by reading her books, which are totally not my genre but look fun. 8mo
TheAromaofBooks I think some repeats would be good, especially now that it's been long enough that some of us weren't participating or even on Litsy at the beginning of the challenge haha maybe if it's been at least two or three years since they were on the list? Like @TheBookHippie said some authors have an extensive catalogue!! 8mo
AllDebooks I don't mind repeats 🙂 8mo
TheAromaofBooks I would suggest P.G. Wodehouse and Georgette Heyer for something more lighthearted. Mary Higgins Clark would be fun. 8mo
Susanita I guess this is a minority opinion, but there are so many authors out there, I‘d like all new authors. Either way, this year I‘ll just vote in the poll. 8mo
TheBookHippie Nora Ephron 8mo
Julsmarshall I‘m fine with repeats or all new. A few suggestions: Toni Morrison, Abby Jimenez, Kate Clayborn, Steven Rowley. 8mo
Bookwormjillk Ohhh I love researching and voting for these challenges I‘m good with repeating but maybe exclude those from the last 2-3 years. (edited) 8mo
Bookwormjillk My suggestions: jumping on Christine‘s Shakespeare idea and Vanessa Diffenbaugh, Kate Quinn, Silas House, Peter Heller, Beverly Cleary, Judy Blume, Kelly Corrigan, Adriana Trigiani, Rita Williams-Garcia, Ron Rash, David McCullough 8mo
Megabooks Dana Spiotta, Patricia Engel, Rebecca Solnit, Elizabeth McCracken, Jeff Guinn, Elizabeth Strout, Edith Wharton, Ron Rash, Meg Wolitzer, Kent Haruf, Edwidge Danticat, Bob Woodward, Curtis Sittenfield, Melissa Febos, Akwaeke Emezi

I would not mind one or two repeats, but I think we should stick with mainly new authors. Like @susanita said, there are so many out there!
8mo
dabbe Charles Dickens, Virginia Woolf, William Shakespeare, Ernest Hemingway, Gabriel Marquez, George Eliot, EM Forster, Thomas Hardy, Raymond Chandler, John le Carre, Sidney Sheldon, Nora Roberts, Robert Ludlum, Rex Stout, John Irving, Terry Pratchett, Willa Cather, H.G.

Some old, some new(er) (nothing borrowed or blue, though!) 😂
8mo
TheSpineView Leigh Bardugo, Christina Lauren, Mariana Zapata, Helena Hunting, Carian Cole, Kristen Callihan, John Scalzi, TY 8mo
Amiable Would love to see some nonfiction authors in the mix for those of us who enjoy that genre. I‘ll have to ponder this and come up with a few suggestions. 8mo
TheSpineView Taylor Jenkins Reid, Kylie Scott, Meghan Quinn, Tracey Garvis Graves, Penelope Ward, Kaylee Ryan, Tessa Bailey, Molly Harper, Louise Bay, Ken Follett, James Michener, Jeffery Archer, Robin Hobb 8mo
Scochrane26 Wendell Berry (he has NF, fiction, poetry), Silas House 8mo
Deblovestoread Nickolas Butler, Liane Moriaty, Colm Tòibìn, Laird Hunt, Jeanette Winterson. I don‘t think any of these are repeat but I might be misremembering. Love getting introduced to new to me authors. 8mo
peaKnit How fun! Nikolas Butler, Sarah Addison Allen and Taylor Jenkins Reid.:) (and I see SAA is your author this month, I didn‘t even know oops!😬 but she‘s a favorite…serendipitous, I‘d like to join in the fun!) (edited) 8mo
Caroline2 I don‘t mind any repeats as I have missed some months. Elizabeth Strout, Edith Wharton, Toni Morrison, PG Wodehouse, Georgette Heyer would be great for me. 👍 8mo
vonnie862 Daphne Du Maurier, Neal Shusterman, Lisa See, Neil Gaiman, Alan Brennert, Grady Hendrix, Sandra Cisneros, Silvia Moreno-Garcia, Gabriel Garcia Marquez 8mo
DHill Kurt Vonnegut, Dennis Lehane, Rachel Cusk, Han Kang 8mo
Melismatic Personally I agree with new authors but so long as there are no repeats from the last few years and the author has written a lot 🤷🏻‍♀️ — my favorite part of this challenge is discovering authors I‘d never think to try and adoring them. 8mo
Larkken Agree that prev authors would be great so long as they're not from ~ the last two years! I'm interested in delving into the back lists for Ben MacIntyre, Shakespeare, tananarive due, Ann Patchett, Mary Stewart, Louise erdrich, Dorothy sayers, Patrick Radden Keefe, martha wells, pico ayer, and Gail carriger. 8mo
Yenya1954 I prefer to have new authors because they challenge me to broaden my interest in new authors and genres. This is my first year and I‘m not sure who you‘ve read before. I like Dana Stabenow, Jodi Picoult, Chris Bohjalian, CJ Box, William Kent Krueger, Ann Cleeves, Lisa Unger. Really I don‘t mind reading any authors who are chosen. 8mo
DogMomIrene I‘ve never participated in this challenge. Even though repeats wouldn‘t be an issue for me, I like the idea of discovering authors new to me. 8mo
Sace I‘d really like to participate next year. I‘m open to any author. 8mo
Skygoddess1 I‘d be open to backlist (more than 3 years ago) authors. Here‘s a few suggestions: T. Kingfisher, Jay Kristoff, Marie Benedict, Peter Swanson, Percival Everett, Tananarive Due 8mo
AmyG I am open to anyone. But I am only going to read an author if I own a book. Thanks for doing this! 8mo
dariazeoli I‘m open for repeats! I also really appreciate the new authors this challenge has introduced me to each year. I‘d like to suggest Octavia Butler, Sally Rooney, Roxane Gay, and Joan Didion. 8mo

Welcome to November #AuthorAMonth readers! Time to pull out our Sarah Addison Allen books. What are you planning to read?

#AuthorAMonth is a no-pressure, no-commitment Litsy challenge. The goal is to celebrate the works of a particular author each month. Authors were chosen through polls by Litsy participants. Read as many as you like, skip months when needed, it's entirely up to you! ⬇️

8mo
Soubhiville -There will be one prize randomly chosen from the "EVERY MONTH CLUB". To qualify for this prize you must read one or more book every month for the qualifying author. For this category BAILS COUNT. The winners will be chosen randomly from the participants that qualify for the club.

-There will also be one or more random prizes sent to any randomly drawn participant who has FINISHED at least one qualifying book during the year. ⬇️

Soubhiville @AllDebooks I‘m doing well. I get back to a mostly normal work schedule tomorrow, which will be a relief. Processing is a daily thing, but mostly I‘m good. Thanks my friend! 8mo
TheSpineView I need to see what is available at the library. 8mo
AllDebooks @Soubhiville that's good to hear. Routine always helps. I can't imagine how stressful life has been. Thinking of you from across the pond! x 8mo

CatLass007 It‘s free on Audible and I‘ve had it in my library for a long time. 8mo
CatLass007 I live in East Tennessee. Johnson City was lucky. The same cannot be said for Elizabethton and Erwin. They found the body of the last missing Impact Plastics employee. FEMA is opening four more Disaster Recovery Centers. I think we‘re going to be in this for the long haul… I‘m glad things are starting to normalize for you, @Soubhiville 🩷 (edited) 8mo
vonnie862 I love her! 8mo
Bookwormjillk @CatLass007 We used to stay in Erwin to hike. It was shocking to see the pictures. 8mo
CatLass007 @Bookwormjillk Parts of Erwin were really nice. I hate that it‘s under water and I still find it shocking to have seen on the news that 50 people had to be airlifted off the roof of the hospital. And there was a story that I think took place in the Asheville area (but don‘t quote me on that) about a family who watched their house float down the river with their cat trapped on top. About a week later 🐈 and family were reunited. It just (cont)⬇️ 8mo
CatLass007 occurred to me that God or the Universe or whatever doesn‘t send things like this as a punishment for some transgression, as some on the religious right will be sure to say. Loudly. Maybe he allows things like this to happen to show us how to work together for the common good instead of fighting for the right to be right. 8mo
CatLass007 @Bookwormjillk Where do you hike now? Or do you even still hike? 8mo
Bookwormjillk @CatLass007 leave it to a cat to float away and come back. Hiking is harder now that the kids are teens with busy schedules so we mostly hike around home in Virginia. But we still usually get to Asheville or the Smokies once a year at least. 8mo
CatLass007 @bookwormjillk It‘s great that your family still hikes together. It sounds wonderful wherever you hike. 8mo

It‘s October #AuthorAMonth readers, time to dive into some books by Tana French.

I‘m not going to post all the rules today, my connection is spotty. But at least wanted to get this up. I‘m going to try tagging but honestly don‘t know if it will work, my apologies if it doesn‘t.

Still getting by in Asheville, but I am one of the lucky ones. Again if you are able to donate to relief efforts it‘s desperately needed.

I don‘t know if I‘ll make it through the entire trilogy this month but it‘s not out of the question. 13mo

Heads up #AuthorAMonth readers 🙂. We‘re 2/3 of the way through March and you all have read a lot of Jane Harper! She seems to mostly be a hit.

As we inch closer to April, you may want to place your library hold or order for Ruth Ozeki books. It will be my first experience with her, and I‘m looking forward to it!

Happy Reading 📚🙂💚.

AmyG All set for Ozeki! I think it was you who gave me 1y

Yenya1954 I‘ve never read any of Ruth Ozeki‘s writings. I just reserved “A Tale for the Time Being.” 1y
Caryl A Tale for the Time Being is one of my very favorite books. 💖 I plan to read The Book of Form and Emptiness in April. 1y
KadaGul @Soubhiville I'm sorry 😢 to say that I won't be able to continue being a part of the AuthorAMonth book club. Things have been getting pretty hectic lately, and with school 🏫 and summer 🌞coming up, it will only get busier. 1y
Soubhiville @KadaGul no worries! Do you want me to take you off the tag list? I‘m glad you got to read along with us for a bit. Come back in anytime! 1y
KadaGul @Soubhiville, If it's not too much trouble, could you please remove me from the list? I will rejoin once things have settled down. 1y

It‘s March #AuthorAMonth readers! Time to pick up something by Jane Harper. What are you hoping to read?

Now may be a good time to update your Google form tracking your #AAM reads. You may either track your books monthly on the form or once at the end of the year, it makes no difference to me. If you want to start the form now, here is the link to do so:

https://forms.gle/3N5rn4hdF86TXvUFA

All the rules and prize info are on the form.

Soubhiville Reminder to keep the email you get once you start your form, you will need it in order to update throughout the year, or you can wait and fill the whole thing out in December if you‘re keeping track of your books along the way. Your already started form should be available to edit in your Google Drive as well. ⬇️ 1y
Soubhiville #AuthorAMonth is a no-pressure challenge in which we read books by a voted on author each month. Read as many or as few as you like. 1y

CatLass007 I haven‘t gotten to the Lauren Groff book I had chosen. I‘ve felt pressured all month to get everything done before the end of the month. And that pressure is self-imposed. Plus February, even in a leap year, is a short month. Not enough time to get everything done that I want to do. But I am looking forward to Dry by Jane Harper. (edited) 1y
Soubhiville @CatLass007 no worries! It‘s not important to read every author, it‘s only important to enjoy what you can and do read. 😊 1y
