Written by RAWSISTAZ · February 3, 2010 · 1,139 views
We will announce our first set of Book of the Month (BOM) selections for the first quarter shortly, but below you will find our reading themes for 2010. If you’re an author or have a client with a book which falls under one of our themes, definitely email us so we can share the information with our members and possibly schedule a Black Book Chat or Blog Tour.
As a special note: we nominate books and then all members vote. We are in the process of voting on our March-June 2010 main and alternate selections.
