message 51: by Carrie (new)

Carrie  (icanhasbooks) | 313 comments I thought it was great. I'm very interested in a certain Mr. Jericho Barons. ;)


message 52: by Janis (new)

Janis (janispr80) | 75 comments I have chosen Anna Dressed in Blood (Anna, #1) by Kendare Blake for Nuzaifa.


message 53: by Suzanne (new)

Suzanne Pringle | 120 comments For Michael I pick:

Watchmen by Alan Moore If you want to read a comic (is that even allowed -to pick comics haha)

or

Prey by Michael Crichton I read it and liked it

or

The Bone Doll's Twin (The Tamír Triad, #1) by Lynn Flewelling


message 54: by Michael (new)

Michael I will read The Watchmen since it is my friend's copy and I have had it for almost a year! For a comic it is longer than a lot of books so I'm sure it counts LOL.

For Suzanne, I pick:

Guilty Pleasures since I loved it and if you like it you have a whole series you can read.

Thank you Leigh! I will read Reflected in You (Crossfire, #2) by Sylvia Day .
The three choices I have picked for you to choose from are: Love Unscripted (Love, #1) by Tina Reber Exiled (The Never Chronicles, #1) by J.R. Wagner or Altered by Laura Burks


message 56: by Sarah (new)

Sarah (sb3626) | 15 comments I choose This Lullaby for Heidy. It is one of my all time favorite books l! I can't wait to hear what you think of it.


message 58: by Carina (new)

Carina | 258 comments @Michael - I hope you like Watchmen it is really rather well done and I think well deserving of the high standing it has in the Graphic Novel community.
@Suzanne - Guilty Pleasures is the first in a great series!


So for my partner, Rebecka, I have chosen a few different options:

Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/33...) - I have read the first two in this series and the 'adult' versions of Lake House and where the Wind Blows so am interested how this one turns out for you!

The Princess Bride (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/21...)
I have read this book and really enjoyed it, if you have ever seen the film the book is just as good :)

Good Omens (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12...)
If you like any work of Prachetts or Gaimans you will like this book!

Hope any one of these will work for you!


message 59: by Nuzaifa (new)

Nuzaifa (n-u-z-a-i-f-a) I picked Shatter Me (Shatter Me, #1) by Tahereh Mafi for Janis.& she has chosen Anna Dressed in Blood (Anna, #1) by Kendare Blake for me. :)

Christine, I will read Love Unscripted (Love, #1) by Tina Reber


message 61: by Camilla (last edited Oct 29, 2012 05:33AM) (new)

Camilla (cyqua) For my partner Kari, I've chosen:
The Lightning Thief (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, #1) by Rick Riordan which is just a really fun and imaginative series! And the only series I've read that even comes close to having the same kind of magical feeling that makes Harry Potter what it is :)

As back-up/alternates, I've chosen either:
The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern or Hounded (Iron Druid Chronicles, #1) by Kevin Hearne
Both two of the best books I've read this year, but for very different reasons :)

Hounded is more a fun and clever UF and Night Circus is more lyrical and fantastical.

Great choice! And you picked two really good ones! I think I will go with Hunger Games though as there is so much talk and all about it at the moment I might actually understand what people mean!

April, I'll let Leigh help you (she's great at that), but from my experience, there's usually a couple of people whose partners don't show up/have time after all, and then I'm sure you could fill in :)
