APRIL NOMINATIONS ARE OPEN
Every single month we nominate books based on the theme of the month to help promote diversity in our yearly reading. Yep, we are Mocha Girls and diverse reading is what we do. We read EVERYTHING!
The theme for April’s book nominations will be…
Cli – Fi (Climate Fiction)
Genre definition: Climate fiction, popularly abbreviated as
cli -fi, is literature that deals with climate change and global warming. Not necessarily speculative in nature, works ofcli -fi may take place in the world as we know it or in the near future.
To nominate a book it must:
- Not be a book we have read before. Check our library to make sure.
- Be in physical and e-book form.
- Be a series starter. If you are nominating a book that is in a series then only Book #1 is eligible.
Nominations are from 3/4/2019 until 3/10/2018
For selecting our book of the month Mocha Girls Read uses a democratic system for monthly selections. What do I need to do? In the comments section below, tell us what you want to read next (author and title please). How many books can I nominate? Just pick 1 title off your TBR (to be read) list. Then what? We will put the list of nominations up for everyone to vote on. Once the voting is over, the winner will be selected as the book of the month. What if there is a tie? We will put the two books to a head to head competition. The two books will be re-posted and everyone will be able to vote again but only in a 48-hour window of time. When do the nominations start and end? The nominations start today and will close on March 10, 2019, at 10:00 pm. Voting will start the next day.
Let us know what you want to read next in the comment section below.
