I haven’t read any of these (yet), but I did read Erasure this year. So my vote is for James for the same reason as yours 😁

Abra, I love this and am following along. Unfortunately I know next to nothing about new releases so I would be horrible at this game but I am so appreciative of being exposed to some newer works that I will likely check out. Thanks!

It’s a bit silly to try to guess but it looks like I accomplished my real goal, if you saw some titles that interest you. Let me know what you end up choosing, Matthew and thanks for commenting.

Well, since I grew up in Mark Twain's hometown and have read and written about his work, I am certain I will be reading James. I am also a huge Louise Erdrich fan and am slowly working my way through her works. Of the rest, Small Rain and Creation Lake sound the most intriguing to me.

I JUST submitted mine!!! We have five the same so at least we will go down (partially) together. I haven’t read all the books I nominated so it’s completely based on instinct at this point 🤣

This is gonna be fun. I'm off to compare notes and to check in with you about how to get the most laughs out of our throw down/ go down.
