Lyn (Readinghearts)’s comments from the Pick-a-Shelf group.

Starting Life After Life by Kate Atkinson as the next book I need to read before it expires.

You guys are intriguing me. I may have to take a look.

That sounds really interesting. :)

Interesting quote, Lynn. Strangely, it alwasy sort of freaks me out when the rising moon looks bigger than it should. I'm sure a moon in the middle of the sky that is too big would really get to me.

Is this a sci-fi book, a dystopian book, horror? How would you class it's genre?

Thanks Susan. :)

That must be a really new book, Susan.

Words to live by, Lauren. That for the quote!

True - but I can certainly say that digitalis COULD be used more often in regular speech.

Here are the ones off of the first page of the list that I have in my possession to read:

Divergent
The Kite Runner
City of Glass
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
The Help
The Lightning Thief

But I think I am going to go with

A Game of Thrones as it fits two other annual challenges for me.

For once I am finished with this month's book. What a surprise, huh?

Congrats to Adrienne and I love your pick. I just looked at the list and I have read several of the books on the first page, but I also own several others that I really want to read.

I have been meaning to read that one, too, Tien. I hear it is amazing. Although my sis didn't like it. She said that it had too much of a feminist bent.

Great quotes, Mindy. I really love the second one. It would be a great beginning line for a thriller! When I read the first one, I thought digitalis was a much more suitable word for a magic word in a dark book. And how is Pegasus harder to say than digitalis.

That is quite a quote, Sherri. It is true, to, though. Why is it that guys don't get the same sort of privacy in bathrooms that women do?

CONGRATULATION TO ALL THE PLAYERS

All of you have completed at least one book and reported. :) Good job, all.
