Nominate Books for Book of the Month (see restrictions)

Members of the forum choose and read a new book every month together, and then discuss it. You can nominate a book to be book of the month using the book's page on Bookshelves. Simply click the link that says 'Nominate for book of the month' on the left side of the book's Bookshelves page near the social sharing buttons. Don't be scared to nominate, as you can change your nomination to a different book if you think of something better.

I am new to this and just read that I could not vote until I had made 10 posts. If I could, I would vote for Death Comes to Pemberly.

Hello Garnie,

welcome to the forum!

If I am not mistaken, you can vote on the book of the month, but need 10 posts to be able to nominate a book youself.

I have posted the topic to vote for the March 2012 book of the month.

Since there were only two nominations, I also added my own nomination The Wedding Gift by Marlen Suyapa Bodden.

Please note, several nominations were ignored for not meeting the guidelines set in the OP: You must have 10 posts to make a nomination and the book must have a reasonable Amazon sales rank. This is to prevent abuse of the nomination system by authors themselves and professional book promoters.

This may be a bit of a silly question but where on Amazon can you find the sales rank for a book?
