Gabrielle Blaque/~Bhlack Benehvolence~’s comments from the Nothing But Reading Challenges group.

Is it possible/allowed to start on one level of the challenge and then keep reading on to another?

Even though I'm doing another monthly challenge and two year round challenges I think I'm gonna try this one, I'm gonna do the simple challenge.

I'll probably be back tomorrow with my list and which categories I'll be doing.

I hope everyone had an awesome Christmas!

Lucky! If the Mane Event is two books in one that's even better! Have a good time! And Happy Holidays to you and everyone else!

Melanie, I was able to find all of my suggestions at the library. Now I just have to decide which one to read which might be a little difficult considering that they've all captured my attention.

I might just end up reading them all just to satisfy my cat-like curiosity, it'll most likely be either The Mane Event or Magic Bites. Thanks again for the recs!

Melanie, that's ok! I'm sure you had a bunch of stuff to do to get ready for the holidays, I'm just glad you got to me!

Thanks for the recs! I think I've read something by Lisa Kleypas before, but I can't remember entirely. I think I've heard of both Shelly Laurenston and Ilona Andrews and these all sound pretty intriguing, so thanks!

I'm glad you picked a HR for me, because it's been so long since I've read one. I should be able to find at least one of these in the library, I'll let you know which one I choose/find!

Thanks again!

Hi Lauren!

Here are my suggestions for you, I liked both of them a lot and I hope you will too!

1. The Silver Kiss (this one has a little bit of history in the form of flashbacks from the hero, there is also some romance.)

2. Blood and Chocolate (I liked this one a lot there's romance in it, and there might be a small love triangle, I don't remember for sure though.)

3. Savage Persuasion or Beyond the Highland Mist (the first one is pure Historical romance with some love scenes, nothing too explicit though. The second one starts off in modern times and switches to Midevil Scotland, both of these were really good in my oppinion.)

I hope you enjoy whichever one you choose!

1. What type of books do you mostly read?

Paranormal romance, Historical Romance, Some Contemporary Romance, and some YA, also some some paranormal with some funny bits thrown in.

2. What type of book would you like to have suggested by your not so secret Santa?

Paranormal Romance, Historical romance, I don't read a lot of Contemporary Romance so I'd Like to read more of that, I'd also like to read comedic paranormal. I'd also like to get more familiar with the Urban Fantasy Genre.

3. Would you like the secret Santa to discuss the book with you?
Yeah that sounds kind of interesting.

4. Would you be willing to discuss the book with the person you make a book suggestion to? Yeah I think so!

5. What is your age range:
B.(17-29)

6. On average how many books do you read in a year?
It varies! It sort of depends on my mood.

7. Are you Male or Female?
Female

8. Do you want a book readily available from your local library or would you mind purchasing something new?

I'm lacking a little in funds at the moment, so readily available from the library would be best!

9. Would you participate in a discussion of the book you recommended?

Most likely, I'm more comfortable doing it if it's book I'm familiar with!

10. Would you participate in a discussion of the book suggested to you?

I probably would, like I said I like to be familiar with the book or author first though.

I think I'm gonna do this challenge but it might take me a little bit.

I'm gonna do the leisurely pace since I'm still working on some other challenges, changed my mind about the young adult read.

I already have Rose Daughter checked out from the library so I'm gonna go ahead and read that, may still read Beautiful Creatures sometime but not right now!

1. Contemporary Romance - The Corset Diaries

2. Horror - Lost Souls


3. Young Adults - Rose Daughter

I think I'm changing my mind about this one, not sure yet though.

I think I'm in too, I'm already part of two other challenges so I'm gonna do the leisure challenge.

The series I recommended is sort of comedic, if you like funny paranormal series.
