Group Read Selection Cycle Three

We're going to have a selection pool of group read themes that you suggest and we cycle through every six months.

This is the third cycle.

*You can add your suggestion to the list, and/or if you really like a suggested theme, feel free to second it.
*We're not going to vote on these unless I get plenty of feedback that several readers don't want/like this process and want to go back to the old way of doing things.
*I can use the themes in order until we run out, and we'll start over again with a new pool.

Some general guidelines:
1. We will take six group themes and one alternate for each cycle. The alternate is kind of a wild card/extra just in case. If it's not used, it will go at the top of the list for the next cycle.
2. The themes need to be distinctive from each other. As much as possible, avoid extremely general themes. I'm going to suggest we don't pick a theme that is limited to one specific authors' books.
3. One suggestion per member per cycle (a cycle is seven months)
4. If your suggestion is not straightforward, I will ask for clarification and narrowing down. If you aren't able to do so, I will have to table the suggestion until it's clear enough for others to understand/be able to generate book choices to vote for.
5. For some reason, if we don't have seven, I will give members about a month to make a sixth and seventh suggestion and then I will close the cycle and we will just go through what we have.
6. If we get more than seven suggestions (and each one has been posted by a separate member) before the cycle closes, I'll add it to the new/next cycle.
7. The last two months before the end of the cycle, I will open up a new suggestion list to accumulate new themes.
8. We will still vote on the books as usual.

Cycle Three Suggestions:

1. September 2021 Post Apocalyptic
2. October 2021 Action Oriented Creature Feature/Monster Story
3. November 2021 Ocean Marine Setting
4. December 2021 Antihero Villainous But Heroic
5. January 2022 Exotic/International Settings
6. February 2022 Jewel Heists
7. (alternate) March 2022 Off Planet Earth Setting


Reminder: This cycle will close July 31st, so members do have at least a month to get some suggestions in.

**See Group Theme Selections General Questions and Comments

**Cycle closed on August 12th!

I'll suggest action oriented creature feature or monster stories (maybe for October).

How about "Post Apocalyptic"

Maybe -Spies, Jewel Heists, Hackers, Assassins...

Ocean/marine setting

I'm going with Antihero Lead/Villainous But Heroic

We need two more nominations.

What's your favorite out of this list?

I nominated last time two and didn't want to nominate any this time around though it looks like you still needs themes - so I'd add:

exotic or international settings

Cool. Thanks!

We just need one more nomination and I can close the cycle.

How about books set on a different planet than Earth?
