Some suggestions for May:
— I second the suggestion for a book based on a Mother character.
— A book with a medical professional as a main character.
— A book about travel (this might help us hope for the future … … … or be a nightmare that we can be glad we are avoiding!)
— A book celebrating Memorial Day/beginning of the summer season.
— As libraries remain closed, another pleas for any wild card book around the house that we can scrounge up!
Yet Another Prompt Suggestion:
Why not select a state and then use any book in/about that state? This would take care of a prompt category for the next 50 months!
