November is coming and it's time to choose a new genre for the month!

What do you think we should read? :techie-studyingbrown:

What is grief, if not love persevering?

Grief is just love with no place to go.

Looks like we have a winner! For November, we'll read books that is a mythology/legend or perhaps books based on mythologies/legends.

Looking ahead, for December, I think we should either re-read a favorite book or a book by an author you love. This way, we can end the year on a high note! What do you think?

I think that's a great idea. I'm not sure about rereading a favourite book though... by now, I could probably recite all my favourites.
I wouldn't mind trying someone ELSE'S favourite author though? Branching out a bit :)

If you can believe it, I'm planning to read a Seanan Mcguire for this month's theme. :lol:

I have two to read, and both would work...so I'm not sure which one to go for!

That's an interesting idea! The only issue I can see is that we don't have a ton of people participating every month, so that might be hard. We could leave it open and maybe I can open a topic for those who like to read someone else's favorite author. Great idea, thank you! :tiphat:
