Fall 2021 Book List

 Thanks to everyone who voted!  I've tallied the results and we have six winners!  

The grid of winners is posted below. As always, we can adjust months as needed.  Remember, if you want to claim a spot, you can't edit the grid on this page, but if you click here, you should be able to.  (But your change won't show below.  It's just a static picture.)

Also, the Long List of all nominees is available in the links at the top right of the home page.

July 2021

We took a trip around the world.  Barbara and company went above and beyond to provide food for the trip, and Talya reviewed The Geography of Bliss by Eric Weinter.  See the menu below. (to be added)
 

Fall 2021 Voting

Everything You Need to Vote

Women of Literatae,

Thank you so much for getting your title recommendations in!  We wound up with 15 titles to choose from, which is actually a pretty good number: enough to actually get to choose, but not so many as to be overwhelming.

Here's what I've put together for you.  Votes are due by online ballot by midnight on July 11.  Fill in the Volunteer Grid as you see fit.  If you have any problems with any of the links, please let me know so I can adjust settings.

The slide show of Fall 2021 Nominees is now available.  See all the titles, book jackets, publisher summaries, comments from nominators, and Fayetteville Public Library, Independent Bookseller (WordsWorth Books in Little Rock) and Amazon availability.  They are divided into a Fiction and a Biography, Memoir, & Nonfiction section.  In an attempt to present them objectively, I arranged them by author.
You may need to click the present button in the upper right corner to view the presentation.  Then use the enter key or click your mouse to step through the slides.  If you want to return to an earlier slide, use the left arrow key to go back.  The escape key will get you out of the presentation at any time.

Scratch Paper Ballot:  If you're like me, you need to decide on paper before voting on an electronic ballot.  Print this ballot for a list of titles in the same order as the slideshow.  To fill out the online ballot, you will need to rank your six choices 1-6, with 1 being your top pick and 6 your bottom pick.

Online Ballot:  Once you have decided on your six choices and ranked them 1-6, use this online ballot to vote.  Remember that you will not rank titles other than the six you have selected.  I've included ranking of the titles so that in the event of a tie, we will not have to have a run-off.

Volunteer Grid:  Sign up for house, reviewer, and dessert.  Of course, all of this is subject to the course of Covid19.
