Revive Group?

The admin of the Author of the Month suggested that perhaps we could revive this group. From what I gather, an author is chosen and members try to read and discuss works from that author for the year! I can't commit to reading an entire oeuvre, but can commit to maybe 3-4 works per year. What say you? Anybody interested for a revival in 2025? If so, please respond in the affirmative and list what author you propose!

I like the idea of this. It particularly works for me because it's over a whole year. Seems like it could be less structured than other challenges but still result in a lot of people reading the same books and able to discuss them around the same time.

Need at least 5 affirmatives to proceed!

I'm happy to pass on admin duties to whomever wants to revive the group.

>6 Tess_W:

Since I wouldn't be partipating, not really. I learned with the creation of this group that I don't enjoy reading an author multiple times in a year. In fact, I had the idea for the Author Theme Group to be a part of this group to get rid of that hurdle but everyone insisted on making it a separate group so this group became dormant as a result.

Not enough interest!
