Hey, I just compared our TBR lists. Are you interested in
The Color of Magic or Gone Girl?


message 55: by Jennifer C. (new)

Jennifer C. | 1722 comments I also have to read 5 Romance Novels for another challenge. Here are a few that I have. Is anyone up for one of these?

True Colors by Kristin Hannah High Noon by Nora Roberts Sundays at Tiffany's by James Patterson Hero at Large by Janet Evanovich Shopaholic Ties the Knot (Shopaholic, #3) by Sophie Kinsella The Winter Sea by Susanna Kearsley Child of the Mist (These Highland Hills, #1) by Kathleen Morgan

Or anything you think would be considered romance from my TBR list.

I'm in also in The really really hard challenge (LOL). I would prefer to read Home Front by Kristin Hannah . If not we can read True Colors as I love Kristin Hannah.... You also have some good ones that we could do:

The Opportunist (Love Me With Lies, #1) by Tarryn Fisher Hopeless by Colleen Hoover Beautiful Creatures (Caster Chronicles, # 1) by Kami Garcia (is this a romance?)

Yeah, this one's going to be rough. I don't read a ton of any genre in a row. I like to mix in a bit of everything.

Anyway, I plan to start reading Beautiful Creatures this Friday, but if you want to do Hopeless and True Colors in February I'm in.

I don't have Home Front, but I do have Magic Hour by Kristin Hannah if you haven't read that yet.

message 73: by ~Jennifer~ (new)

~Jennifer~ (book_addiction) | 929 comments I've started Dominion. I'm probably about 40% through it. It's pretty good. It just hasn't grabbed me yet. My book ADD can't handle too much of that before my attention wanders. lol

I am actually in for two other buddy reads but I need to read this book too. Having a buddy will force me to actually read it so you'd be happy doing me a favor by reading it with me. I'll go sign us up.
