SUMMARY:VIRTUAL NE READERS ADVISORY ROUNDTABLE
DESCRIPTION:\n\nThe Northeastern Readers' Advisory Round Table studies an 
 HISTORICAL FICTION ARC: ARC#3--WESTERNS\n\n(Note: All NE M RA RT 
 discussions will be Virtual Zoom meetings sponsored by a member library. 
 Members will receive a link to sign-up via our Google Group\, anyone else 
 who is interested should email Leane at rapotential@gmail.com)\n\nOur 
 current topic\, Western Historical Fiction\n\nFor the Western Historical 
 benchmark\, everyone reads Tom Lin’s The Thousand Crimes of Ming Tsu 
 (2021).  In addition to reading the Benchmark\, come to the discussion with 
 at least one to three authors/titles that you feel are a good Readalike for 
 this novel\, and be prepared to explain why based on Appeal.\n\nAlso\, 
 please choose a Western Historical Choice Title from the list provided\, or 
 one you choose yourself and provide at least one to three Readalikes for 
 that Western Historical Choice title based on the Appeal of the book you 
 read as well as write a brief review on our blog under Submit Choice 
 Titles.\n\nSee NE RA RT BLOG for more information and list of 
 Resources.\n\nMeeting every other month\, the NE RA RT reads from one genre 
 or topic--and then discusses the appeal of that genre with each other 
 emphasizing the building of a skill set of appeal categories and 
 familiarity of genre/topic particulars. We cover a different genre/topic 
 every meeting\, allowing each of the participants to be introduced to the 
 discipline of reading for appeal\, as well as an initiation to broad genre 
 categories. Everyone participating will be able to share analysis of titles 
 and authors in unfamiliar genres that will stretch their capacity as 
 readers' advisors.  The discussion leader is Leane Ellis 
 (rapotential@gmail.com).\n\n\n\n
