Our next topic begins our year of studying specific Appeal categories through Nancy Pearl’s Doorways. We began with Character in January 2023 and Tone in March. In May we are discussing Pace (5/23/23), followed by Frame (9/26/23), and Style (11/28/23) .

Assignment For the benchmark, everyone Ava Glass's Alias Emma (2022).

Also, please read a Choice Title. See our blog for suggested paths to choosing your Choice Pace Title, and then write a review on our blog under Submit Choice Titles.   

See NE RA RT BLOG for more information and list of Resources.

Meeting every other month, the NE RA RT reads from one genre--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 particulars. They 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).
