Do we need to post a completion post as well as on SS or is putting it on SS enough?

Hi Team!!

My shelf: https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...


I'm live in Louisiana, with my hubby of almost 22 years and I'm a mother of 4 (ranging 17 - 27).

I love to read, and although my main genre is romance, I have also been known to read a mystery/thriller/suspense, biography/autobiography, urban fantasy, chick lit, and a few other things.

done

Can you guys please check the books I added to the SS to see if anyone has read them, or if the fit somewhere for the mini challenge? Thanks!

I'm fine with either. I have books planned, but have no clue if they are small town or big city.

Sorry, I haven't been getting notifications from this thread for some reason.

We do start today, correct?

Deanna wrote: "Since we have so many Reverse cards this month and just to get to know one another better let's talk books. Generally speaking, what are your favorite books? It can be individual books, series, or ..."

My favorite genre is Romance, once upon a time my favorite book was Little Women, but I haven't read it in years.

Other than that I have tons of favorites books/authors.

My one clicks recently have been: Kristen Ashley, Devney Perry, Vi Keeland, Karen Marie Moning, Penelope Ward

I also love Julia Quinn, Eloisa James, Tessa Dare, Lisa Kleypas, Darynda Jones, Brittainy C, Cherry, Mariana Zapata, Willa Nash (pen name of DP for KU), Piper Rayne, Lani Lynn Vale, Nora Roberts, Max Monroe, Eden Finley, Talia Hibbert, Teagan Hunter, Helen Hoang, etc...

I've recently started falling for Melanie Harlow, Ilsa Madden-Mills, Leisa Rayven, Roni Loren, Kristen Callihan, Chloe Leise, Abby Jimenez, T.L Swan, etc...

This list would be too long if I keep going, since I "meet" and fall in love with new authors all they time.

So....Romance in almost any variety/sub-genre and I also will read bios/autobios, myster/thriller/suspense, ya fantasy (not much for romance amongst the younger set if that's all its about since I like my spice, but I definitely will do new adult romance)

Hi all! My name is Shan and this is my first round of UNO here. I've done it in some form elsewhere, but nothing quite like this, so I'm extremely excited to get started.

I'm fairly new to the group, so unless we are in other groups together, I'm most likely new to you too.

I'm not very talkative in the thread, but I will be reading for the challenge (I'm always reading or listening to a book), and if I have a problem or questions I will definitely speak up.

Personally, I'm married this year will make our 21st wedding anniversary, although we've been together (this year) for 23 yrs. We have 4 kids, who are no longer children: Our son (from my previous relationship) is 26, 3 daughters who are 21, 19, & 16.

I work full time in HR for a local company and I love what I do even though it's been driving me bonkers since last year.

I absolutely love to read. My love affair started as far as I remember when I was 8 yrs. old, but my cousin always says I was always with a book (even longer than that).

My shelf for this challenge: perks-uno

Hi everyone. Newbie here. I love playing the UNO card game and I'm not new to challenges.

I'm excited to see how this one works (in action)!!
