The RMA Book Club is very democratic about choosing books. When we are near the end of the list of chosen books, everyone is invited to suggest books by a specific deadline. Then all members vote on 12 books for the next 12 months. The books with the most votes are placed on the reading list. But why do individuals suggest certain books? That is where the Book Blog comes in. Each month, we invite the person who suggested that book to write a short paragraph about why they made their selection.
