Our October 2011 Just Desserts selection will be our first experiment of picking an author with numerous titles, for whom the library doesn’t have the minimum 8-to-10 copies of any single specific individual title to meet our group’s needs. Instead, we’ll pick the author, then Just Desserts members will be encouraged to read ANY of that author’s works, and we’ll discuss them ALL as a group, rather than everyone reading the same exact title.

Here’s your assignment before the July 28th Just Desserts meeting: Please look at the following list of three possible authors for October, and click the link below to express your preference of which of the three authors you’d like to see us pick. You may only select one of these three authors under consideration:

Charles Todd — his Ian Rutledge series, set in post-WWI England, featuring a Scotland Yard detective suffering from PTSD and haunted by the ghost of a soldier whose death he’s responsible for.

Louise Penny — her Chief Inspector Armand Gamache series, is set in Quebec and its environs in modern day.

Suzanne Arruda — her Jade del Cameron series is set in the 1920s in Africa, and features a strong female protagonist.

Thanks, and enjoy voting! The voting form will remain active through the end of the day on Wednesday, July 27th, 2011.
