Jonetta’s Comments (group member since Nov 25, 2014)

Jonetta’s comments from the 2-3-4 Challenge group.

Great job, Sharon! I love your participation in the group discussions. This time of the year is always tough, which is why we paused in some of the groups. You did well, though.

FYI, I have the discussion up for Hidden Scars.

1. Did you complete and/or get up to date in any series this month?
2. Did you start any new series? If so, what were they? Will you continue?
3. Did you move forward in any series (that you didn’t complete or finish)? How many?
4. Any standout or 5 star books read? Why did you love it/them?
5. Overall summary of your reading month?

I finished listening to The Hidden One by Linda Castillo, Kate Burkholder #14, and it was harrowing, twisty and revealing.

Your continuing Midnight Breed is inspiring me to resume the series. I loved it before I paused.

Looking forward to our group read discussions. Have a wonderful reading month, Lauren!

Hope you enjoy the Christina Lauren book, one of my early favorites. I’ve also got the Beth O’Leary book coming up soon.

Enjoy your reading, Lieke!

Your holiday plans sound wonderful, Anita! Enjoy the festivities and your reading.

Congrats on being so closely in reach of your annual goal, Melissa! Have fun with your random reading, too.

Good luck with those drag alongs, Michelle! I know the feeling of wanting to just get them done.

Have a wonderful reading month!

Have a wonderful reading month, Viki!

Hope you can get those authors of the month done, Sharon. Enjoy everything!!

Wonderful month, Sharon!

I don’t believe in these kind of coincidences. Perhaps there was a GR glitch in the notifications.

1. Did you complete and/or get up to date in any series this month?
I got up to date in two and completed two series:
Tracy Crosswhite by Robert Dugoni (up to date)
Wishing Tree by Susan Mallery (up to date)
The Ravenels by Lisa Kleypas (complete)
It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover (complete)

2. Did you start any new series? If so, what were they? Will you continue?
I started one series, Orphan X by Gree Hurwitz. Definitely continuing.

3. Did you move forward in any series (that you didn’t complete or finish)? How many?
I moved forward in three series:
Kate Burkholder by Linda Castillo
Getaway by Various Authors
Slammed by Colleen Hoover

4. Any standout or 5 star books read? Why did you love it/them?
I had three 5-star books: Blacktop Wasteland, Wrong Place Wrong Time and What She Found. All three were difficult to put down and plenty twisty. Highly recommend.

5. Overall summary of your reading month?
I enjoyed all 14 books this month, with only one less than 4 stars. I’m satisfied with quantity, series progression and quality of the reading/listening experiences.

Wow, Melissa! Great work.
