Less than a week left in March with Leigh Bardugo #AuthorAMonth readers! I really enjoyed my reads with Bardugo, and read more than I‘d planned to.

Now might be a good time for you to put in holds or orders for our April author, Kate Quinn.

Happy Reading 📚

AmyG I already started my April read! 1w

TheSpineView Currently working on The Familiar. 25% in and still can't get into it. I loved the author's other books. Sigh... 😏 1w

CatLass007 I‘ve got my copy of Kate Quinn‘s The Briar Club, which also is the April selection for #LiteraryCrew. I‘ve got three Leigh Bardugo books on this month‘s TBR, which I hope to start tomorrow. 1w

AmyG @CatLass007 That‘s the one I am reading…Briar Club. It‘s good. 1w

tpixie @Soubhiville I plan to read The Briar Club and The Huntress. I may re- read The Alice Network ( which I loved) , since a character in that is makes a cameo in The Huntress. 1w

CatLass007 @AmyG Thanks for the encouragement! @tpixie The Huntress is currently free on Audible! 1w

tpixie @CatLass007 oh wow! Thanks!! 1w

CatLass007 @tpixie Welcome!! 1w

DGRachel I‘m not part of the group, but just wanted to say I LOVE Kate Quinn. The Huntress was the first book my entire work book club enjoyed and it is one of my favorite books. ❤️ 1w

tpixie @DGRachel great to hear! 1w

willaful I've almost finished the Grishaverse! But am busy with the #TRansRightsReadathon now, so saving Rule of Wolves for next month. 1w

CoffeeNBooks I'm looking forward to reading The Huntress- it's been on my bookshelf for too long. I really liked The Alice Network! 1w

Sace I‘m hoping to finish Ninth House by Monday (having trouble getting into it) and the Literary Crew selection for April is by this month‘s author. 1w

vonnie862 I was only able to get my hands on Ninth House, and unfortunately, I DNFed it. 1w

Bklover I loved The Diamond Eye! 1w

Yenya1954 The Huntress was amazing. Diamond Eye, The Rose Code and The Alice Network were also great books. 1w

Andrew65 @Yenya1954 Agree, all excellent books. I hope to get to The Briar Club next month.

The Briar Club

6d

julieclair Like several others, I‘ll be reading The Briar Club with #LiteraryCrew. And I never did get to read any Leigh Bardugo this month, so I‘m hoping to read at least one in April. 4d

CatLass007 I enjoyed several of Leigh Bardugo‘s books this month. @Soubhiville will you please let the group know that there are at least six Kate Quinn books available for free on Audible. I‘m having a hard time narrowing things down to just a couple. (edited) 2d

It‘s the last day of February #AuthorAMonth readers. I hope your time with Roxane Gay has been meaningful. I know she‘s not a gentle easy read.

Tomorrow we‘ll be picking up our March author Leigh Bardugo. Dropping into some fantasy!

I‘ll proofread the 2025 google form and attach it to tomorrow‘s post, for those ready to start tracking your books.

Have a great day, Happy Reading.

We‘re halfway through January already #AuthorAMonth readers. I hope you‘re enjoying your time with Dorothy L Sayers.

If you want to start thinking about February you may want to put a hold or order in for your Roxane Gay books. I highly recommend watching some of her interviews at various author events on YouTube as well. I‘ll post links to one or two in February. Happy Reading! 📚🙂❤️

Please be sure to go edit your AAM google form. I need everyone to do this, because I just looked at the spreadsheet and realized I forgot to ask for your Litsy names! 🤦

https://forms.gle/r6EydHX3GmrfYenA8. ⬇️

Soubhiville Also if you haven‘t yet, be sure to let me know below with a comment that you would like to be tagged on next year‘s AAM posts. (If you have already and you tell me again you‘ll get added to the list a second time.)

I will be drawing and announcing winners Saturday January 4th, and I‘ll post one more reminder on the 2nd. 3mo

Soubhiville One last reminder that we should be wrapping up with Sir Terry Pratchett tomorrow and finding Dorothy L Sayers titles for our first AAM of 2025.

#AuthorAMonth readers, we have come to the final week of 2024. Our final week of Terry Pratchett. I hope you‘ve found something you enjoyed by him.

With the New Year we will move on to our January author, Dorothy L Sayers. I‘ll be seeing what my library has by her, how about you?

It‘s also time to finalize your #AAM google form. I will be looking at results and drawing and announcing winners on January 4th. All the rules are on the form ⬇️

Soubhiville Can someone please comment that the link and form have worked ok for you? (Or haven‘t if that‘s the case) 3mo

mom2bugnbee I fell off of the wagon this year, but I'm excited to jump back in in 2025! Thank you for always organizing so well! 3mo

mom2bugnbee @dabbe I think that the graphic is for 2024 - Jane Austen was our author this past January. SYers is Jan 2025. 3mo

dabbe @mom2bugnbee Shit. As a former English teacher, you think I'd read the WHOLE graphic. Sheesh. 🙄 Thanks! 😂 3mo

Only two weeks left in 2024? Wow. I hope your time with Terry Pratchett is going well #AuthorAMonth readers!

In case you didn‘t know, there is a Discworld book that‘s Christmasy themed! Hogfather. And there is a movie adaptation, I believe available to watch on YouTube.

Reminders that our first author of 2025 is Dorothy L Sayers, to go to the last post under this book title to get the StoryGraph link, and get on next year‘s tag list.

It‘s December, our final 2024 #AuthorAMonth! Time to pull out our Terry Pratchett books. What are you planning to read?

#AuthorAMonth is a no-pressure, no-commitment Litsy challenge. The goal is to celebrate the works of a particular author each month. Authors were chosen through polls by Litsy participants. Read as many as you like, skip months when needed, it's entirely up to you! ⬇️

Soubhiville There will be some prizes sent at the end of the year:

-There will be ONE prize book box for "MOST READ." In order to qualify, books must be FINISHED in the appropriate month. (Bails will not be counted.) It is up to you to keep track by editing your Google form. (this prize can only be won once, there will be a different winner every year.) ⬇️ 4mo

Soubhiville -There will be one prize randomly chosen from the "EVERY MONTH CLUB". To qualify for this prize you must read one or more book every month for the qualifying author. For this category BAILS COUNT. The winners will be chosen randomly from the participants that qualify for the club.

-There will also be one or more random prizes sent to any randomly drawn participant who has FINISHED at least one qualifying book during the year. ⬇️ 4mo

Soubhiville Once you start your Google form you will get an email confirmation. Hold on to that email, it gives you access to edit the form. You should also be able to access it through your Google Drive. I can not access it for you though, and if you can‘t get to the form you started my link will make you start a new form. It is up to you if you track monthly with the form or just fill it out at the end of the year. ⬇️ 4mo

See All 34 Comments

Soubhiville I won‘t be looking at it until January of 2025.

Only Listy members who are still active in the Listy community at the time of drawings will qualify.

Here is the link to the Google form:

As always, let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the tag list. 🙂📚. Happy Reading!

4mo

BarkingMadRead

Hogfather

4mo

vonnie862 I think I'm going to start with the first book in the Discworld series. 4mo

dariazeoli I‘ve got this one on my Kindle

Going Postal

4mo

Andrew65 I looking forward to reading a Terry Pratchett book this month, so far only read Good Omens that he co-authored. 4mo

Andrew65 @AllDebooks That seems an appropriate book for December, might check this one out. 4mo

AmyG Skipping as Pratchett is not for me. Enjoy everyone! 4mo

AllDebooks @Soubhiville 🙂 4mo

AllDebooks @Andrew65 🙂 I recommend his short stories. This was very good

A Stroke of the Pen: The Lost Stories

4mo

bookwyrm7 Please add me to the tag list. I can't join this month but will do so next year. Are the prizes also for those in Europe, or only in a certain country? 4mo

JacqMac I bought a beautiful hardcover of this one and I can‘t wait to start.

Hogfather

4mo

Jess I just started A Stroke of a Pen on audio and it is so fun. The first story was read by David Tennent and the second by Claire Foy. Great start! 4mo

Larkken Yay! Love sir terry. I may start a discworld reread… we‘ll see 4mo

Soubhiville @bookwyrm7 you are added! I will ship to Europe for the big prize, for the smaller ones I‘m more likely to get a gift card to the bookstore of your choice, as overseas shipping from the states is really expensive. 4mo

Soubhiville @vonnie862 if you don‘t love the first Discworld book, don‘t let it put you off the rest. Most of his fans feel he didn‘t get his stride until a few books in and the first two aren‘t nearly as good. 4mo

Soubhiville @Jess I didn‘t know the audio had multiple narrators! I loved reading this one though, some great stories. 4mo

willaful Can you tag me for next year please? And I'll be reading The Truth this month, for #OokBookClub. 4mo

Soubhiville @willaful you‘re added 4mo

Andrew65 @AllDebooks Thanks, will see if I can get hold of this. 4mo

bookwyrm7 @Soubhiville Thanks! That's perfectly fine 👌 4mo

vonnie862 @Soubhiville I've been debating of where to start 4mo

DHill Just started

We‘re more than halfway through November #AuthorAMonth readers! I hope you‘re enjoying your time with Sarah Addison Allen. I‘m almost finished with my book for the month, Other Birds, and I really like it.

December brings us one of my very favorite authors, Terry Pratchett. I can‘t wait for you to experience him if it‘s your first time! If you need recommendations I‘ll make a couple in the comments. 🙂💛📚

AllDebooks I‘ve skipped this month, but I am so excited to read Terry Pratchett next month 😊 4mo

Soubhiville Terry Pratchett recommendations: If you are new to TP, he‘s best known for his Discworld series. I don‘t recommend starting with the first book however, as he didn‘t really develop his style and get his stride until a few books in. I think a great place to start is with the first Night Watch book-

Guards! Guards!

4mo

Soubhiville Guards! Guards! Can be read as a stand alone, or if you love the characters you can follow them into more adventures. Another great start would be the first Witches book, also can stand alone but can follow characters to additional books-

Equal Rites

4mo

Soubhiville If you love short stories I thoroughly enjoyed

A Stroke of the Pen: The Lost Stories

4mo

Soubhiville If you‘re a YA lover the first Tiffany Aching book is fun. It‘s also Discworld, also can stand alone but does start a series-

The Wee Free Men

4mo

TheSpineView I started The Sugar Queen yesterday. I had to wait on a library hold. Liking it so far. 4mo

AmyG I am going to skip Terry Pratchett…sadly, not for me. But I enjoyed this month‘s book

Lost Lake

4mo

Bookwormjillk Thanks for the recommendations! A new author for me. 4mo

PurpleyPumpkin I just finished this one today! Throughly enjoyed it. 😁

Garden Spells

4mo

Karisimo @Soubhiville thanks for the suggestion! 4mo

Yenya1954 I‘ve just borrowed The Long Earth. 4mo

Soubhiville @Yenya1954 I‘ll be interested in your opinion on that one. I liked it but it‘s very very different from his other stuff, as he‘s partnered with a scifi writer for it. Grammy M liked this series:

The Bromeliad Trilogy: Truckers, Diggers, and Wings

4mo

Soubhiville @vonnie862 see above for a few recommendations of good first-tastes of Discworld. 🙂 4mo

Here is the big announcement #AuthorAMonth readers! Here are our 2025 authors!

The most votes went to Leigh Bardugo this year, then Kate Quinn, then Octavia Butler so I decided to include her as a repeat author.

What do you think? Who are you excited for? Any suggestions for different ways to run the voting next year?

Thank you all for your nominations and your votes. I‘m pleased with the 2025 list, should be some great reading.

tpixie @Soubhiville great list!!! Judy Blume‘s Are You There God It‘s Me Margaret was kept behind the school librarian‘s desk and we had to have written permission from our parents to be able to read it. Luckily my mom let me!! I just learned of a book about, not by Didion

Didion and Babitz

4mo

BookwormAHN Nice 😺 4mo

CatLass007 This is great! There‘s a wonderful mix of familiar authors and new authors. I look forward to them all!! 4mo

CatLass007 @dabbe @Soubhiville I feel the same about Forever, although I learned never to lend books to anyone at an early age. 4mo

DHill Great list! So excited for 2025. Thank you @Soubhiville ! 4mo

dabbe @CatLass007 True that! 😂 4mo

I just voted and I‘m so excited. This is definitely a favorite yearly challenge. I always vote for authors on my tbr list but even if they don‘t get picked for the year I have always enjoyed finding new authors I love. So even if you don‘t vote or read an #authoramonth, I recommend trying it out for a month or two and learn about new to you authors! I‘m reading more books by authors read earlier this year like Klune and SA Cosby. @Soubhiville

It‘s time! Time for nominations for authors you‘d like to see us read for next year‘s #AuthorAMonth. Please comment with your suggestions. I‘ll give this post a week, the release the poll.

TheBookHippie I can‘t imagine repeats would matter of some authors who have many many books. 5mo

TheBookHippie Shakespeare 👀♥️ I miss reading it regularly .. 5mo

TheBookHippie Allison Winn Scotch she has been such a voice for women I‘d love to honor her by reading her books, which are totally not my genre but look fun. 5mo

TheAromaofBooks I think some repeats would be good, especially now that it's been long enough that some of us weren't participating or even on Litsy at the beginning of the challenge haha maybe if it's been at least two or three years since they were on the list? Like @TheBookHippie said some authors have an extensive catalogue!! 5mo

AllDebooks I don't mind repeats 🙂 5mo

TheAromaofBooks I would suggest P.G. Wodehouse and Georgette Heyer for something more lighthearted. Mary Higgins Clark would be fun. 5mo

Susanita I guess this is a minority opinion, but there are so many authors out there, I‘d like all new authors. Either way, this year I‘ll just vote in the poll. 5mo

TheBookHippie Nora Ephron 5mo

Julsmarshall I‘m fine with repeats or all new. A few suggestions: Toni Morrison, Abby Jimenez, Kate Clayborn, Steven Rowley. 5mo

Bookwormjillk Ohhh I love researching and voting for these challenges I‘m good with repeating but maybe exclude those from the last 2-3 years. (edited) 5mo

Bookwormjillk My suggestions: jumping on Christine‘s Shakespeare idea and Vanessa Diffenbaugh, Kate Quinn, Silas House, Peter Heller, Beverly Cleary, Judy Blume, Kelly Corrigan, Adriana Trigiani, Rita Williams-Garcia, Ron Rash, David McCullough 5mo

Megabooks Dana Spiotta, Patricia Engel, Rebecca Solnit, Elizabeth McCracken, Jeff Guinn, Elizabeth Strout, Edith Wharton, Ron Rash, Meg Wolitzer, Kent Haruf, Edwidge Danticat, Bob Woodward, Curtis Sittenfield, Melissa Febos, Akwaeke Emezi

I would not mind one or two repeats, but I think we should stick with mainly new authors. Like @susanita said, there are so many out there! 5mo

dabbe Charles Dickens, Virginia Woolf, William Shakespeare, Ernest Hemingway, Gabriel Marquez, George Eliot, EM Forster, Thomas Hardy, Raymond Chandler, John le Carre, Sidney Sheldon, Nora Roberts, Robert Ludlum, Rex Stout, John Irving, Terry Pratchett, Willa Cather, H.G. Wells, Michael Crichton, Andy Weir, Herman Hesse, Dean Koontz, Dashiell Hammett, Joyce Carol Oates

Some old, some new(er) (nothing borrowed or blue, though!) 😂 5mo

TheSpineView Leigh Bardugo, Christina Lauren, Mariana Zapata, Helena Hunting, Carian Cole, Kristen Callihan, John Scalzi, TY 5mo

Amiable Would love to see some nonfiction authors in the mix for those of us who enjoy that genre. I‘ll have to ponder this and come up with a few suggestions. 5mo

TheSpineView Taylor Jenkins Reid, Kylie Scott, Meghan Quinn, Tracey Garvis Graves, Penelope Ward, Kaylee Ryan, Tessa Bailey, Molly Harper, Louise Bay, Ken Follett, James Michener, Jeffery Archer, Robin Hobb 5mo

Scochrane26 Wendell Berry (he has NF, fiction, poetry), Silas House 5mo

Deblovestoread Nickolas Butler, Liane Moriaty, Colm Tòibìn, Laird Hunt, Jeanette Winterson. I don‘t think any of these are repeat but I might be misremembering. Love getting introduced to new to me authors. 5mo

peaKnit How fun! Nikolas Butler, Sarah Addison Allen and Taylor Jenkins Reid.:) (and I see SAA is your author this month, I didn‘t even know oops!😬 but she‘s a favorite…serendipitous, I‘d like to join in the fun!) (edited) 5mo

Caroline2 I don‘t mind any repeats as I have missed some months. Elizabeth Strout, Edith Wharton, Toni Morrison, PG Wodehouse, Georgette Heyer would be great for me. 👍 5mo

vonnie862 Daphne Du Maurier, Neal Shusterman, Lisa See, Neil Gaiman, Alan Brennert, Grady Hendrix, Sandra Cisneros, Silvia Moreno-Garcia, Gabriel Garcia Marquez 5mo

DHill Kurt Vonnegut, Dennis Lehane, Rachel Cusk, Han Kang 5mo

Melismatic Personally I agree with new authors but so long as there are no repeats from the last few years and the author has written a lot 🤷🏻‍♀️ — my favorite part of this challenge is discovering authors I‘d never think to try and adoring them. 5mo

Larkken Agree that prev authors would be great so long as they're not from ~ the last two years! I'm interested in delving into the back lists for Ben MacIntyre, Shakespeare, tananarive due, Ann Patchett, Mary Stewart, Louise erdrich, Dorothy sayers, Patrick Radden Keefe, martha wells, pico ayer, and Gail carriger. 5mo

Yenya1954 I prefer to have new authors because they challenge me to broaden my interest in new authors and genres. This is my first year and I‘m not sure who you‘ve read before. I like Dana Stabenow, Jodi Picoult, Chris Bohjalian, CJ Box, William Kent Krueger, Ann Cleeves, Lisa Unger. Really I don‘t mind reading any authors who are chosen. 5mo

DogMomIrene I‘ve never participated in this challenge. Even though repeats wouldn‘t be an issue for me, I like the idea of discovering authors new to me. 5mo

Sace I‘d really like to participate next year. I‘m open to any author. 5mo

Skygoddess1 I‘d be open to backlist (more than 3 years ago) authors. Here‘s a few suggestions: T. Kingfisher, Jay Kristoff, Marie Benedict, Peter Swanson, Percival Everett, Tananarive Due 5mo

AmyG I am open to anyone. But I am only going to read an author if I own a book. Thanks for doing this! 5mo

dariazeoli I‘m open for repeats! I also really appreciate the new authors this challenge has introduced me to each year. I‘d like to suggest Octavia Butler, Sally Rooney, Roxane Gay, and Joan Didion. 5mo

Welcome to November #AuthorAMonth readers! Time to pull out our Sarah Addison Allen books. What are you planning to read?

#AuthorAMonth is a no-pressure, no-commitment Litsy challenge. The goal is to celebrate the works of a particular author each month. Authors were chosen through polls by Litsy participants. Read as many as you like, skip months when needed, it's entirely up to you! ⬇️

Soubhiville There will be some prizes sent at the end of the year:

-There will be ONE prize book box for "MOST READ." In order to qualify, books must be FINISHED in the appropriate month. (Bails will not be counted.) It is up to you to keep track by editing your Google form. (this prize can only be won once, there will be a different winner every year.) ⬇️ 5mo

Soubhiville -There will be one prize randomly chosen from the "EVERY MONTH CLUB". To qualify for this prize you must read one or more book every month for the qualifying author. For this category BAILS COUNT. The winners will be chosen randomly from the participants that qualify for the club.

-There will also be one or more random prizes sent to any randomly drawn participant who has FINISHED at least one qualifying book during the year. ⬇️ 5mo

Soubhiville Once you start your Google form you will get an email confirmation. Hold on to that email, it gives you access to edit the form. You should also be able to access it through your Google Drive. I can not access it for you though, and if you can‘t get to the form you started my link will make you start a new form. It is up to you if you track monthly with the form or just fill it out at the end of the year. ⬇️ 5mo

See All 30 Comments

Soubhiville I won‘t be looking at it until January of 2025.

Only Listy members who are still active in the Listy community at the time of drawings will qualify.

Here is the link to the Google form:

https://forms.gle/r6EydHX3GmrfYenA8

As always, let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the tag list. 🙂📚. Happy Reading!

Soubhiville @AllDebooks I‘m doing well. I get back to a mostly normal work schedule tomorrow, which will be a relief. Processing is a daily thing, but mostly I‘m good. Thanks my friend! 5mo

TheSpineView I need to see what is available at the library. 5mo

AllDebooks @Soubhiville that's good to hear. Routine always helps. I can't imagine how stressful life has been. Thinking of you from across the pond! x 5mo

Garden Spells

5mo

CatLass007 It‘s free on Audible and I‘ve had it in my library for a long time.

Garden Spells

5mo

CatLass007 I live in East Tennessee. Johnson City was lucky. The same cannot be said for Elizabethton and Erwin. They found the body of the last missing Impact Plastics employee. FEMA is opening four more Disaster Recovery Centers. I think we‘re going to be in this for the long haul… I‘m glad things are starting to normalize for you, @Soubhiville 🩷 (edited) 5mo

vonnie862 I love her! 5mo

Bookwormjillk @CatLass007 We used to stay in Erwin to hike. It was shocking to see the pictures. 5mo

CatLass007 @Bookwormjillk Parts of Erwin were really nice. I hate that it‘s under water and I still find it shocking to have seen on the news that 50 people had to be airlifted off the roof of the hospital. And there was a story that I think took place in the Asheville area (but don‘t quote me on that) about a family who watched their house float down the river with their cat trapped on top. About a week later 🐈 and family were reunited. It just (cont)⬇️ 5mo

CatLass007 occurred to me that God or the Universe or whatever doesn‘t send things like this as a punishment for some transgression, as some on the religious right will be sure to say. Loudly. Maybe he allows things like this to happen to show us how to work together for the common good instead of fighting for the right to be right. 5mo

CatLass007 @Bookwormjillk Where do you hike now? Or do you even still hike? 5mo

Bookwormjillk @CatLass007 leave it to a cat to float away and come back. Hiking is harder now that the kids are teens with busy schedules so we mostly hike around home in Virginia. But we still usually get to Asheville or the Smokies once a year at least. 5mo

CatLass007 @bookwormjillk It‘s great that your family still hikes together. It sounds wonderful wherever you hike. 5mo

It‘s October #AuthorAMonth readers, time to dive into some books by Tana French.

I‘m not going to post all the rules today, my connection is spotty. But at least wanted to get this up. I‘m going to try tagging but honestly don‘t know if it will work, my apologies if it doesn‘t.

Still getting by in Asheville, but I am one of the lucky ones. Again if you are able to donate to relief efforts it‘s desperately needed.

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks This would be a good time to read 💫💛

CatLass007 I‘ve listened to My Darkest Prayer and Razorblade Tears. Both were excellent. I‘d like to get to Brokedown Prophets before the end of the month. For July, I have The Complete Poppy War Trilogy in one volume. It‘s 66 hours and 29 minutes long. I don‘t know if I‘ll make it through the entire trilogy this month but it‘s not out of the question. 9mo

Jess Cosby was a win. I had read one and finished two others this month. I immediately went out and bought My Darkest Prayer for later reading. Cosby is now an auto buy. Thanks for whoever nominated him! Not sure about July. May just read

My Darkest Prayer

9mo

vonnie862 I'm almost done with my book for this month, and I have July's ready. 🤗 9mo

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Love this author 💙 9mo

Soubhiville @CatLass007 wow that‘s a lot of hours! I‘ll be mighty impressed if you finish. Although I guess I often get close to that many hours in a month if I am able to listen while I work. 9mo

Yenya1954 Yellowface is the one I have chosen—it was the only one at my local library. 9mo

Welcome to May #AuthorAMonth readers! Time to pull out our Emily St John Mandel books. What are you planning to read?

#AuthorAMonth is a no-pressure, no-commitment Litsy challenge. The goal is to celebrate the works of a particular author each month. Authors were chosen through polls by Litsy participants. Read as many as you like, skip months when needed, it's entirely up to you! ⬇️

Soubhiville There will be some prizes sent at the end of the year:

-There will be ONE prize book box for "MOST READ." In order to qualify, books must be FINISHED in the appropriate month. (Bails will not be counted.) It is up to you to keep track by editing your Google form each month or at the end of the year. (This prize can only be won once, there will be a different winner every year.) ⬇️ 11mo

Soubhiville -There will be one prize randomly chosen from the "EVERY MONTH CLUB". To qualify for this prize you must read one or more book every month for the qualifying author. For this category BAILS COUNT. The winners will be chosen randomly from the participants that qualify for the club.

-There will also be one or more random prizes sent to any randomly drawn participant who has FINISHED at least one qualifying book during the year. ⬇️ 11mo

Soubhiville Once you start your Google form you will get an email confirmation. Hold on to that email, it gives you access to edit the form. You should also be able to access it through your Google Drive. I can not access it for you though, and if you can‘t get to the form you started my link will make you start a new form. It is up to you if you track monthly with the form or just fill it out at the end of the year.⬇️ 11mo

Soubhiville I won‘t be looking at it until January of 2025.

Only Listy members who are still active in the Listy community at the time of drawings will qualify.

Heads up #AuthorAMonth readers 🙂. We‘re 2/3 of the way through March and you all have read a lot of Jane Harper! She seems to mostly be a hit.

As we inch closer to April, you may want to place your library hold or order for Ruth Ozeki books. It will be my first experience with her, and I‘m looking forward to it!

Happy Reading 📚🙂💚.

Now may be a good time to update your Google form tracking your #AAM reads. You may either track your books monthly on the form or once at the end of the year, it makes no difference to me. If you want to start the form now, here is the link to do so:

https://forms.gle/3N5rn4hdF86TXvUFA

All the rules and prize info are on the form.

Soubhiville Reminder to keep the email you get once you start your form, you will need it in order to update throughout the year, or you can wait and fill the whole thing out in December if you‘re keeping track of your books along the way. Your already started form should be available to edit in your Google Drive as well. ⬇️ 13mo

Soubhiville #AuthorAMonth is a no-pressure challenge in which we read books by a voted on author each month. Read as many or as few as you like. 13mo

Hello #AuthorAMonth readers! We‘ve got about a week left in February with Lauren Groff. I hope you‘ve been enjoying your time with her.

CatLass007 I haven‘t gotten to the Lauren Groff book I had chosen. I‘ve felt pressured all month to get everything done before the end of the month. And that pressure is self-imposed. Plus February, even in a leap year, is a short month. Not enough time to get everything done that I want to do. But I am looking forward to Dry by Jane Harper. (edited) 13mo

Now may be a good time to update your Google form tracking your #AAM reads. You may either track your books monthly on the form or once at the end of the year, it makes no difference to me. If you want to start the form now, here is the link to do so:

https://forms.gle/3N5rn4hdF86TXvUFA
⬇️

Soubhiville Reminder to keep the email you get once you start your form, you will need it in order to update throughout the year, or you can wait and fill the whole thing out in December if you‘re keeping track of your books along the way. Your already started form should be available to edit in your Google Drive as well. ⬇️ 1y

Soubhiville #AuthorAMonth is a no-pressure challenge in which we read books by a voted on author each month. Read as many or as few as you like. At the end of the year there is a prize box for “Most Read.”

There will also be randomly drawn prizes- everyone who has read at least one Author a Month book and is still active on Litsy is entered into those random drawings. ⬇️ 1y

Soubhiville All rules for the challenge are on the Google Form. As always, just let me know if you‘d like to be added or removed from my tag lists. ❤️📚 (edited) 1y

Soubhiville Somehow I left out the “Every Month Club” in the notes above. There‘s a randomly drawn prize from the group of readers who either complete or attempt and bail on at least one book by each author.📚🙂 1y

CatLass007 Since I won‘t be doing the challenge portion, I don‘t think it‘s vital that I fill out the Google form. I already have my Lauren Groff book, The Vaster Wilds! 1y

Gissy Thank you! I completed the form with books read in January 2024🤗I‘m planning to read, but not 100% sure, more books by this author but later in the year, as part of another reading goal. 1y

Soubhiville @CatLass007 you may want to do the Google form if you‘d like to be eligible for the prize drawing. Everyone who reads at least one book is automatically entered, but I go by the form to draw winners. 🙂 1y

Soubhiville I hope to read the tagged, if I have time to get to it this month. It‘s the only book of Groff‘s I haven‘t read yet:

Delicate Edible Birds: And Other Stories

1y

KadaGul @Soubhiville I got done ✅ w/ my local libraries' 📚 reading 📖 challenges earlier than anticipated that's why I can participate in February. I'm looking 👀 forward to reading 📖 Vester Wilds. I just have to pick up from library 📚 1y

dabbe I have no idea what to read. Any suggestions anybody? 😃 1y

Bookwormjillk It‘s finally time to read

Fates and Furies: A Novel

1y

Soubhiville @dabbe if you like short stories my favorite by her is

Florida

1y

Deblovestoread @dabbe. I loved Matrix. Historical Fic about a 17 year old sent to be a prioress of a destitute abbey. 1y

Deblovestoread I hope to read both The Vaster Wilds and Florida. 1y

Blackink_WhitePaper I am going to read Arcadia. I dont have any clue on the subject of the book. Lets see! 😄 1y

Caryl I‘m planning to read Matrix, and may get to Florida as well. 1y

Pageturner1 not familiar with her. guess will see what majority of #AAM is going to read. 1y

dabbe @Deblovestoread Thanks; I'll look into it! 🤩😍🤗 1y

Julsmarshall I‘ve got an ARC of Vaster Wilds and Florida on audio so I have a couple to read this month:) 1y

peanutnine I'm planning to read Monsters of Templeton since I got a copy from a used book sale a while back. I'd also like to try to get to Fates and Furies if I have time, it was recommended highly on my favorite book podcast 1y

LiteraryHoarderPenny @peanutnine Monsters of Templeton is my absolute favourite by Groff. Loved it! 1y

Jess I got a head start and just finished Arcadia on audio (a low pick for me) and have Fates and Furies and Monsters of Templeton on my shelves so hope to read both this month. 1y

peanutnine @LiteraryHoarderPenny oh yay, that makes me more excited to read it! 1y

TheSpineView This author is going to be hard for me. I tried to read Fates and Furies a few years back and ended up bailing on it. I think it will just be whatever is available at the library. 1y

Yenya1954 I enjoyed Delicate Edible Birds and other stories. 1y

Bookzombie I‘m going to read Monsters of Templeton. 1y

DHill I‘ll be reading

The Vaster Wilds

1y

gossamerchild I'm reading Florida and I'm already sucked in! 1y

Melismatic Unsure which I‘ll start with but Groff does have a short story available for free on KU 💪🏻💖 Tagged

Boca Raton

1y

Jas16 I am planning on reading

Arcadia

1y

AmandaBlaze I really liked Arcadia, but I think I'll go with TheVaster Wilds. 1y

Caroline2 Oh think I‘ll do Vaster Wilds. 👍 14mo

We have a little more than a week left in January #AuthorAMonth readers. 🙂 I hope you‘re enjoying reading Jane Austen‘s books.

Quick reminder that February will be Lauren Groff‘s month of recognition. Do you need to put a hold on a book from your library or place an order with your local indie bookseller?

I‘ll be posting the 2024 google sheet at the end of January.

Happy reading!

AmyG I am excited for Groff. 1y

Delicate Edible Birds: And Other Stories

1y

Soubhiville @tpixie @fredthemoose @BeckyWithTheGoodBooks @throwmeabook @CBee @Andrew65 @Yenya1954 @Read-y_Picker @AmandaBlaze 1y

Soubhiville @Megabooks I think that‘s the only one I haven‘t read yet, so I hope I will read that as well 🙂. 1y

Jess I have Arcadia, Monsters of Templeton and Fates and Furies on my shelves. We shall see what I get through. 1y

Deblovestoread I‘ll start with Florida and maybe get to this one too

The Vaster Wilds

1y

CatLass007 I started Emma in November but I‘m only 1/3 of the way through. I‘m probably not going to finish it this month. 1y

CBee @Soubhiville could you email me your new address please? I‘d like to (eventually) send you something 😊 it‘s cydneybean@gmail.com. 1y

IndoorDame My hold on The Vaster Wilds just came in yesterday. I‘m super excited about it since it‘s on my #auldlangspine list and I‘ve never read anything by Groff before. 1y

CatLass007 Does anyone have any recommendation(s) for my first book by Lauren Groff? 1y

AmyG @CatLass007 I can only say my first Groff was Monsters of Templeton and I loved it. I am going to read Florida and maybe, MAYBE, Arcadia. 1y

Soubhiville @CatLass007 if you like short stories, Florida is my favorite by her. If you prefer novels I thought The Vaster Wilds was great. 1y

AmandaBlaze I couldn't get into Northanger Abbey. I'll probably try again some day. I'm going to read Vaster Wilds for February. I loved Arcadia. 1y

CatLass007 @AmyG @Soubhiville Thank you both. I think I prefer novels over short stories. It‘s hard to be invested in the characters in the short form. But if I like the novel I choose, I‘m more likely to choose books by the same author. 1y

AmyG @Soubhiville OOOO thrilled to know how good Florida is. (edited) 1y

Bklover I have The Vaster Wilds that I don‘t even remember buying, but I‘d like to try Florida as well. 1y

Laughterhp I own the vaster Wilds, so I‘m going to read that and try fates and furies because I own that one as well! 1y

dariazeoli I‘ll be finishing Pride & Prejudice this week! My first Groff will be audio:

Fates and Furies: A Novel

1y

Melismatic Looking forward to Feb as I‘ve never read any Groff! 💖 1y

Larkken Ooh good timing, I just got Vaster Wilds from the library! 1y

Gissy I think I missed the link 1y

Soubhiville @Gissy I haven‘t posted the link to the form yet. I will be posting it for the first time at the end of this month. 1y

Yenya1954 Thanks! I just reserved one! 1y

Gissy @Soubhiville Thank you🤗 1y

Morr_Books I can't believe I haven't picked up an Austen yet. I guess there is still a little time.... 1y

Bluebird I‘m reading an annotated version of Pride and Prejudice, nearly done. I am a bit nervous about Groff. I bailed on the Vaster Wilds at about 15%-despite it being read by one of my favorite narrators. I have Monsters of Templeton and Edible Birds on hold at the library-will see what comes up. 1y

Preparing for #authoramonth for 2024 is proving difficult. I have very few books by these authors. Husband has most of Pratchett‘s books, so he‘s going to help me pick for December. But otherwise, I‘ll be looking for suggestions.

Other than Emma, I‘ve not read books by Jane Austen. I‘m about 1/3 into Pride and Prejudice and I‘m enjoying it very much. I‘m pleasantly surprised (& some authors not so much—Rushdie). That‘s why I love this challenge!

TEArificbooks For SA Cosby, I loved Razorblade Tears so I have his new one pulled for that month 1y

TEArificbooks For Emily St John I loved Station 11 and Sea of Tranquility 1y

Texreader @TEArificbooks Thanks!!! 1y

See All 14 Comments

TEArificbooks For Tana French I liked In the Woods the first in a series. They made it into a tv show but the mixed two books into the first season so you might want to read both books before watching 1y

Texreader @TEArificbooks I actually bailed on that Tana French book. I got so bored. Any others? 1y

TEArificbooks @Texreader I did like The Dry and every Sarah Addison Allen that you already have there. Only read the one French so far but I have The Witch Elm pulled for it. 1y

Texreader @TEArificbooks I‘m really struggling with Sarah Waters. Every book that looks interesting to me has poor reviews that I‘d likely agree with (they are too slow-a complaint I take to heart). Have you read anything you liked by her? 1y

Texreader Kuang‘s Babel was on my tbr, so I‘ve easily added that one. 1y

CBee @Texreader a lot of Littens really like Fingersmith by Waters. Anything by Cosby is bound to be amazing. The Aaron Falk series by Jane Harper is good. 1y

CBee Kuang‘s Yellowface was amazing, and my favorite by Klune is The House on the Cerulean Sea (Under the Whispering Door is also so good). 1y

TEArificbooks @Texreader never read Waters but had many friends recommend Fingersmith 1y

Texreader @CBee Thank you!! I‘m pretty sure my son has House on the Cerulean Sea so I‘ve stacked that one. And thanks for all the recommendations. Really appreciated! 1y

Amiable @Texreader If you couldn‘t get into Tana French‘s Dublin Squad series, try “The Searcher” or “The Witch Elm.” They aren‘t related to the series. 1y

CBee @Texreader you‘re welcome ♥️ 1y

Welcome to January 2024 #AuthorAMonth readers! Time to pull out our Jane Austen books. What are you planning to read?

#AuthorAMonth is a no-pressure, no-commitment Litsy challenge. The goal is to celebrate the works of a particular author each month. Authors were chosen through polls by Litsy participants. Read as many as you like, skip months when needed, it's entirely up to you! ⬇️

Soubhiville There will be some prizes sent at the end of the year:

-There will be ONE prize book box for "MOST READ." In order to qualify, books must be FINISHED in the appropriate month. (Bails will not be counted.) It is up to you to keep track by editing your Google form each month. (this prize can only be won once, there will be a different winner every year.) ⬇️ 1y

Soubhiville -There will be one prize randomly chosen from the "EVERY MONTH CLUB". To qualify for this prize you must read one or more book every month for the qualifying author. For this category BAILS COUNT. The winners will be chosen randomly from the participants that qualify for the club. 1y

Soubhiville -There will also be one or more random prizes sent to any randomly drawn participant who has FINISHED at least one qualifying book during the year.

Only Listy members who are still active in the Listy community at the time of drawings will qualify.

I will build a new Google form for 2024 by the end of January. ⬇️ 1y

Soubhiville As always, let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the tag list. 🙂📚. Happy Reading! 1y

Soubhiville Some of you are tagged more than once because I‘m not sure the tag worked for the first time… let me know if you got two notifications? I‘m going to read

Pride and Prejudice

1y

Soubhiville @Susanita good luck! Classics can be a challenge for me. 1y

dariazeoli This is the year I finally read

Pride and Prejudice

1y

IndoorDame I‘m thinking I‘m going to read Emma. I think it‘s been by far the longest since I‘ve read it. 1y

Lcsmcat I may reread Persuasion. It‘s my favorite Austen. 1y

Bookwormjillk I‘m not sure yet. I‘ve read them all so it‘s going to be a mid-month treat for me to pick whichever one I have a feel for. 1y

TheSpineView I'm think

Sense and Sensibility

1y

Laughterhp I‘m going with Sense and Sensibility. I‘ve never read it before. I‘m just waiting on my library copy. 1y

Amiable I may skip this month to focus on my #AuldLangSpine booklist—undetermined at this time. 🙂 1y

Jess I found two different copies of Sense and Sensibility on my shelves so will start there but I‘ve never read Northanger Abbey and may want to try that this month. 1y

AllDebooks I might go with Persuasion as it's the only one I haven't read or maybe stick with comfort reading my favourite

Sense and Sensibility

1y

Melismatic I‘m not an Austen girlie but I trust this challenge! Gonna go left field with

Persuasion

1y

vonnie862 I'm going to try Northanger Abbey. 1y

Soubhiville @Melismatic I‘ve actually never read her! I feel like a book traitor to say I enjoy the movies but have never been drawn to the books. I‘m trying this month though! 1y

Soubhiville @Amiable I love that challenge! I hope you have a bunch of books you‘re excited about for it. 1y

vlwelser Emma. I'm not really an Austen person. I read P&P and kept expecting (hoping) zombies were about to lumber out of the bushes. We'll see what happens with this one. 1y

BarkingMadRead I think I‘m going to read Persuasion. I always reach for P&P so I thought I‘d try something different 1y

Read4life I‘m going to try Northanger Abbey on Serial Reader 1y

Soubhiville @Read4life oh great idea! I often forget about serial reader. 1y

Bookzombie I‘m going with Sense and Sensibility. 1y

MrsV I think I might try Persuasion 1y

Julsmarshall I‘m not sure, like @Bookwormjillk I‘ve read and own them all and plan to see where the wind takes me mid-month. Excited to get back into Austen 🤩 1y

Caryl I‘m excited for Austen month! It will be fun to read all the posts. I‘ve read The Big Six, so I‘m going to start with one of her early works, then see if I have time for more.

Lady Susan

1y

Deblovestoread I‘m going to start with Persuasion. If time allows I might squeeze in either P & P or S & S. 1y

dabbe Either SENSE AND SENSIBILITY or PERSUASION. Haven't read either one. 1y

mom2bugnbee My favorite! So excited to have an excuse to re-read her catalog! 1y

KadaGul @Soubhiville I might not be able to get to the Authors until March. I am in few local Library 📚 reading 📖 challenges. They all will end in February. For March #JANEHARPER I'll have #DRYBYJANEHARPER 1y

Soubhiville @KadaGul do you want to be added to the tag list? 1y

KadaGul @Soubhiville Yes I want to because 5/12 I'm in local library challenges and then the rest i don't know 🤷‍♀️ what to read. This way I'll have little theme going on to fill in the gaps. If that's ok with you. 1y

Jane Austen - Sanditon: The last novel by Jane Austen
