Grab a Book & Play Booktivity! discussion

We invite YOU to nominate a theme for next month.

Perhaps there's a holiday (major or obscure) you want to celebrate? Maybe you want to focus on a specific genre or tag? Want to look for cover image or color? Focus on the author's initials? Whatever "theme" you can come up with is fair game.

BE SURE to include the task requirement for your theme:
Examples:
Author, Author!: Read a book whose author's first and last initials are in "Author, Author"
Spring is Here!: Read a book with flower(s) on the cover - be sure to post the cover image.
Read a book with "COZY MYSTERY" as a genre


ONE nomination per member


To encourage participation from more members, the person who nominated LAST month's winning theme cannot nominate this month. So, Donna, you will *not* be able to submit a nomination (though you WILL be able to vote).

DEADLINE - 25 January 2022 5p CST, or 5 nominations (whichever comes first)

Once the nominations are closed, we'll set up a poll for membership to vote on the theme for next month.

It's also the Olympics!

Fickle Mother Nature- During our February weeks we see blizzards and tornados; below zero nights and 54 degree afternoons; and college students wearing tiny fur jackets with denim shorts. Read a book where the weather is described, share the text.

Let's not forget LOVE is in the air in February, Valentine's Day. Read a book with chocolates, roses, balloons, candy on the cover/title (show cover) -OR- the word LOVE in its title.
