It's so funny to already be thinking about book club selections for summer of 2015, but it's that time again. My group picked their list for the coming year and I couldn't be more excited. So many goodies to look forward to. This past year we focused a lot on setting and world building, and next year we plan to focus on character. Heroes, Villians, & Monsters is our official theme. Did I mention I'm excited? I really really am.
