Welcome to our western Mass Readers' Advisory genre study.  This month participants have a choice among three benchmarks: A Murder Most Camp by Nicolas DiDomizio, Bury Me When I'm Dead  by Cheryl A. Head, or By Way of Sorrow by Robin Gigi.  Extra points if you read more than one.

We will discuss the appeal of our benchmarks and the audience for them as well as readalikes to suggest to users if they want a similar title or if the book is unavailable.  Each of us may read a second title of our choosing in the genre as our personal choice. (Check NoveList for suggestions.) We exchange ideas, define the appeals of the genre, suggest books and other media, and come away with an awareness of additional titles to offer our users. Join us online to share your choices and hear those of colleagues.  

We meet bimonthly via Zoom to explore various genres and readers advisory skills and how to use them to meet the needs of our users.  In alternate months, in our Chat sessions, we share what we have been reading/watching/listening to and discover new titles, authors, and topics to enjoy.

Those who register for sessions will receive an email reminder a week before our meeting.  For questions or suggestions, contact Alene Moroni (amoroni@forbeslibrary.org) or Jan Resnick (njrezz@comcast.net).
