Here you can nominate any word that is proudly South African for us to read in January.

Then we take the word we voted on and read a book starting with a letter in the word, or a author's name/surname that starts with the letter.

For example:

Z -
U - Uglies
L - Lover Eternal
U -

Nominations will be open until 10th of Feb.

Oooh i like VLUG :)

I've decide to on BRA - Pronounced: Brah This word has no reference to the English word which pertains to an undergarment. The word Bra refers to a close friend or acquaintance. It’s a term of endearment. “Yah I know him, he’s a Bra of mine”

Nice and short and I'm sure i can fill it with books on my "next" list :)

Shannon SA (shannonsa) Yes, I like BRA, nice & short, for Js there's JAG or JOK, the only one I can think of with J and R together is JAAR or JARE. Going to be lots to choose from for March :)!
