Thanks for the pick, Tracy. For you I've picked Shadow of Night. I haven't read it myself, but I read the first one this time last year and thought it was pretty good. 
Thanks Iris! I'm currently reading A Discovery of Witches for another group's TBR challenge, so as soon as I finish it, I'll just move right on to Shadow!
Just a clarification question, do I read all three of the choices you made or do I choose one only?
Mod
Choose one only. Do you have a pick for me?
Mod
. I hope you like one of these choices.
Mod
Bree, I will have someone pick for you.

I would be happy to pick for Bree if you would like.

I hope you have a good air conditioner. Lol
Leigh wrote: "Thank you, Zara. Here in Louisiana, it is both wet and cool."Hi Leigh.
Below are two books for you to choose from. I like the sound of them myself so have added them to my ever expanding TBR list.
Fiji: A Novel
A Chance for Charity
Mod
. Thank you, Zara.
I can't get back to the top & after finding my partner I haven't heard anything from her. Have I done something wrong? I hope she doesn't think I'm not participating:( Leigh what am I doing wrong?
I haven't heard from mine yet either but they have until the first so hopefully we will have our picks by then :)
It would be ironic if we were partners hum Elizabeth :) if our partners don't show maybe we can be? Wanna live dangerously? Lol until the first it is:( I'm probably one of the most impatient people alive:)
so am I lol I just finished a book today so I have been anxious lol.
Leigh wrote: "I will read . Thank you, Zara."I'll read
as I have it at home at the moment. I'm waiting to get the other two. Thanks Leigh.
Leigh wrote: "Cindy, I have three choices for you . I hope you like one of these choices."Leigh, thanks so much! I will go with
.

Bree, I was asked to pick for you. I am picking
or
. Both were fantastic reads, so I hope one is good for you. If you want me to pick something else, just let me know.
If you need anyone to pair with more than one partner I'm down for that. Anything I can do to help:) I'd like it if everyone who'd like to participate can & will. Let me know if anyone is unattached , entered late, or doesn't hear from their partner by the deadline. I'm always enchanted by another friend who enjoys reading as much as I do. So as I said anything I can do just ask:)
Cindy I'd love to have you pick something! I'm still organizing what I love. I'll have my picks for you by tomorrow!
For Cynthia I choose
This is one of my favorite books. Let me know if you need another pick though.
Bre I picked a few you can choose from....
Happy Reading ^-^
For Angela I picked
Hope you enjoy it.
Bre I think I will choose APART FROM LOVE...but if all goes good I might read both of them!!

or
or
.I read Cinder and liked it a lot. I haven't read the other two, but I also have them on my to-do list, so maybe we have similar tastes.
For Sheri: i have picked two books i loved :
and
so you choose. For some reason, i think you will love Kate Daniels series, though, if you choose to read Magic Bites. Enjoy
Hey Rachel :) you weren't late I just am not so great w/ the threads I wanted to make sure I didn't miss you:) For you I choose
1.American Gods-Neil Gaimen
2.Let the right one in-John Ajivide Lindquist
3.Beautiful Creatures-Kami Garcia & Margaret Stohl
I've read all 3 & loved them, American Gods stands alone. I really enjoyed it
Let the right one in- is a very different type of pn/pnr & I highly recommend reading it & then checking out the subtitled version of the movie( unless you speak German , which would be awesome cause I do:)
Beautiful Creatures is a complete series that even has an o.k. Novella included! I love it when the series is complete so I can just plow through!
I hope you enjoy which ever title you pick , I really liked them all. I can't wait to hear what you think:)
From your choices Im going to read the Lauren Oliver choice, possibly Cinder also! Thanks for responding & we'll be chatting :) happy reading- Clare

"Hi Nena, thanks, great choices! I'm currently reading City of Bones, and I would really love to read both Anne of Green Gables AND The Princess Bride, so I'll aim for both :)
For you, I noticed that you have Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone on your TBR - if that means you haven't read the series at all, I absolutely have to choose that for you! :)
As backups, I've chosen Eon: Dragoneye Reborn or Incarceron for you - both of which I really enjoyed and are different in their respective genres than the normal kinds of books :)

Know what I like best about this challenge - is seeing how different tastes and genres of books everyone has. My TBR shelf continues to grow after browsing througth this thread but it"s all good :)
