88432 Hey Everyone! Just stopping by and realized I wasn't getting notifications when anyone comments here. I've fixed that , So I'll be on here more :)
How's everyone doing? Any questions...?
I just finished
A Court of Thorns and Roses (A Court of Thorns and Roses, #1) by Sarah J. Maas yesterday and have found a new favorite series! It was set apart from your typical heroine story and really draws you in. If you're a fan of
Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles, #1) by Marissa Meyer , The Queen of the Tearling (The Queen of the Tearling, #1) by Erika Johansen , The Hunger Games (The Hunger Games, #1) by Suzanne Collins , then this might be right up your alley :D

88432 I finished American Gods (American Gods, #1) by Neil Gaiman by Neil Gaiman last night. I could read it all over again!
★★★★ for the imaginative world of Shadow Moon, Would be 5 stars but I felt a bit lost throughout the story, flipping from different stories to what felt like "mini stories". Gaiman is brilliant!

88432 Billy I would say, just pick a book you want to read for starters. As we start filling in cards you can see what is still open and then choose accordingly. Keeps it fun that way ;D

Q: What are the 1 - 3 best books you read in 2016?
1.Salt to the Sea by Ruta Sepetys
2.When Breath Becomes Air by Paul Kalanithi
3.My Year of Running Dangerously A Dad, a Daughter, and a Ridiculous Plan by Tom Foreman

My question is twofold :
Who is your favorite author & your favorite book by them ?

Hey Shamber! welcome :) I'm not too far from you, only a bit SE of Dallas

First, you can only use the book you start reading on Feb 1st. Any you have read or are currently reading cannot be used.

For a collection, I believe if the books are also single novels greater than 100 pages, you can list them individually.
So, if I'm correct you can use The Horse and His Boy because it's 224 pages.

Let's see if Teddie agrees, or has something to add....
