Thanks guys! This sounds like it will be a lot of fun!

[Rebecca NJ]

I just finished: which counts for the weather challenge (rain in title) and is shelved as romance by 65 people.

[~Leslie~]

Great job, Rebecca! Finding books for this mini challenge has been harder than I thought!

[Rebecca NJ]

I keep forgetting that we can use pictures of the sky!

[Rebecca NJ]

We are now over the 900 mark! Great job everyone!

[~Leslie~]

Woo Hoo, Team D!!! Way to go!!!

And yes, Rebecca - any cover with sky on it, will work. That does help alot.

[Vi]

Welcome Marissa!

I couldn't update for a while since I didn't have GR access that much. Right now, I'm reading and (Yes, I've taken the leap finally!). I don't think either of them qualify for the mini but the KMM would qualify for the monthly.

Just finished https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&a... (actual cover of my book). For mini challenge weather. WOW!!!! What a book and what courage Odyssa had to walk most of the AT alone. This book is a page turner and I felt as if I was beside her all the way through all the ups and downs. I highly recommend this book to everyone.

Just started https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&a... (actual cover of my book.

[~Leslie~]

Great books everyone!! Everyone's reading books that are made into movies - interesting!

@Vi - I love the highlander series by KMM. Hope you are enjoying.


I just finished

Next, I'll be reading
This will also count towards the mini challenge.

[Lisa Kay]

Marguerite, I'll combine that with the other books and add a cover. Is that one a paperback, hardcover, Kindle, eBook, audio? What?

[Rebecca NJ]

Last night I finished which fits for the weather challenge.

This morning I finished which was shelved as romance by 33 people.

[Rebecca NJ]

I just saw this Leslie. I can imagine it's going to take a long time to get past that experience.

[~Leslie~]

Way to go team!! Let's get to a 1000!!! We can do it!!

@Rebecca - well, I don't like to watch things about Katrina, but I thought I could read a book. But no! I really want to read this author, so I'll have to start with another book.

@Mraguerite - great job!

[~Melissa~]

Finished both totally awesome hot read - 388 classify as Romance and which I think with the Sun in the middle of the St Louis arch classifies for the mini weather challenge and 43 classify as a Romance

[Lisa Kay]

You read that book, Melissa! You brave woman, you.

hmmmm....would you be talking about ?? It really was good. I genuinely liked both Brian and Myrna. Sed was a totally different story but I'm sure by his book I will probably like him as it seems he has back story for us to find out about (view spoiler)[ I've never been that "groupie" girl ....never into rockers or celebs for that matter so for me personally that was a bit of a yuck factor. Don't get me wrong they're hot I'm just not the type to think...if I get him to *wink wink nudge nudge* then he's going to see how much I "love" him and then he'll be mine. So I had to kind of ignore that bit about the book and probably the rest of the series,lol (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

Lisa Kay thank you and it is paperback

[~Leslie~]

Just finished and it qualifies for the mini challenge. I am rapidly becoming obsessed with this series, and if anyone is looking for a good UF series, I highly recommend it.

I'm not sure if I have any others that qualify for the mini challenge. I'm looking!

I'm glad you liked it! I really enjoy this series esp Gin and her friends.

It's rapidly becoming my favorite series since Kate Daniels. I'm totally sucked into the world she's created and I love the people and want to go hang with them at the barbeque place!

Okay, please tell me if this cover qualifies for the mini challenge. I am reading

I think that's sky I'm seeing.

I think I see clouds and sky

[Rebecca NJ]

Leslie, I see clouds over his shouder

[~Leslie~]

Thanks!! I'm glad I found another cover for this book!

[Jane]

A wee update on my romance reading of the month. I haven't read anything for this week's mini challenge.



6 romance book this month.

[Vi]

Melissa - I just finished Highlander. It was as you ladies said - PNR lite. I liked it okay; I was not that crazy about it. Adrienne was irritating most of the times. Hawk was ok and thankfully he didn't become an alpha-hole. Since I can't read series out-of-order, I'm planning to read till book #3 at least before deciding anything. Thanks for the push to read this series! I'm glad I did :)

[Diane ~Firefly~]

Finished which 33 people shelved as romance.

[~Leslie~]

Vi - the series really gets good on the 3rd one. The second one can be skipped, it really has no bearing on the series at all. I liked it, but the 3rd should really be the first one in the series. So don't give up!

[~Melissa~]

Leslie is totally right - #2 can be skipped. Both 3 and 4 were really good. Can't say abut the rest as I will be reading #5 this month

I read the whole series a couple of years ago and remember liking them all. I am in the process of re-reading them. Just finished #3 and will be reading #4 soon. But I will say that I have very low standards when it comes to time travel and highlanders!

@Marguerite - did you see the movie? And if you did, was the book as good?

[Deedee]

Hi all - currently reading
(almost done - very violent)
(almost done - not as good as his other stuff)
(almost done - too influenced by the OJ Simpson trial)
(just begun)

[~Leslie~]

Wow, Deedee - what an eclectic selection! And yes, the third Fire and Ice book is violent. And I've heard good things about The Restorer. Interested to hear what you think.

[❉⊰Gayle⊱❉]

I just finished ? Very good. You all convinced me to read this series. It qualifies as a romance. As for the mini challenge, it looks like he is surrounded by clouds?? Or smoke?? You decide if it counts.

I've just begun reading ? Good so far.

[~Leslie~]

@Gayle - this cover works for it
Gotta love alternate covers!! Glad you liked it. It's one of my favorite series and it just keeps getting better and better.

[Sherri]

I'm starting .

Just finished (just kinda eh but I still love Temeraire).

[[deleted user]]

Leslie to me the movie The Blind Side was better than the book. Which I find strange because to me the book is always better.hmmmmm

[~Leslie~]

I did love the movie! The mom reminded me of so many women that I know. It was pretty funny.

[Rebecca NJ]

Deedee - I'm curious to see what you think about . It looks really interesting!

[Rebecca NJ]

I finished which fits both the weather challenge (blue sky in the background) and the month long challenge (shelved as romance by 40 people).

[❉⊰Gayle⊱❉]

I've finished . It was not at all what I was expecting...much better in fact. I would read the next in the series. It is listed as romance, and I found an alternate cover that shows a hint of sky behind the angel's wings, so it qualifies for the mini challenge. Alternate cover

[~Leslie~]

1 hour left! I'm desperately trying to finish my book!

[Vi]

I finished last night. I can see sky so it should qualify for the mini and the monthly too, I loved this book! I liked Logan and Evie - though I do think this book would have been served better by a longer length. And this is one book where the author should have shown the bedroom. Unfortunately she did not.

[~Melissa~]

Last night I finished 249 users classified as Romance. This book was hilarious - I was laughing so hard at parts I had tears streaming down my face. My daughter kept looking at me strangely and asking me to read my book elsewhere,lol
