Award Winning Books recommend by the MBC

Every June, our Mystery Book Club (MBC) reads Award Winning Books. We all read whatever book or books we want off of the list of books that won Awards or were Nominated for awards for the current year and share what we read. Most of the Book Award festivities had to be cancelled and were awarded virtually or are yet to be awarded.

We moved this topic to July this year. We had to do some scrambling when everything shut down and we had to cancel our April and May meetings at the library. Luckily, our leader Kay, researched and found the best way for our club to meet virtually. So we moved everything forward a month to catch up. Who would have thought we would still be doing this? The library has opened now for curbside pick up and we are glad about that. They do have a great ebook system too but some people prefer hard copies. I checked out my first book "curbside" this week and it was worked really well.

Anyhoo, thought I would share what our MBC members read. Just providing the list. It may give you some ideas of new books to read.

  1. Glad you're sharing this, Gayle. I think a lot of people could use some recommendations for good books right now. And I also think that libraries will not be operating normally for a long, long time. Sigh.
