Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments I will be reading Heart On A Chain by Cindy C. Bennett which has been on my TBR list since April 10, 2012. I think it's been on my bookcase almost as long. LOL

so jealous! it's been on my TBR too, but I removed it a while back because I can't get my hands on it!! let me know how it is!!!


message 11: by Gisbelle (new)

Gisbelle | 25787 comments Well, I think I will read Take Me There by Carolee Dean . It's been on my TBR since 2011.

I have Heart on a Chain on my TBR also, but the cover is not very appealing so I am not sure I will read it anytime soon.

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments Trisha, I don't understand. Why can't you get a copy? Can't the library order a copy?


message 13: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments Oh Gis, it's Heart on a Chain is going to be really good, I'll just bet!

Yes I hope so :) Let me know after you finish. Maybe I will read it as well.

Gisbelle | 25787 comments lol.. Trisha :) Obsidian is a good one. I hope you like it. Book one is the best in the series.


message 17: by Trisha, lives on coffee (new)

Trisha | 30284 comments I finished Crush  by Carrie Mac today, 3 stars. Great intro book to GLBT literature.


message 18: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments So is that the first GLBT book you have ever read?


message 19: by Trisha, lives on coffee (new)

Trisha | 30284 comments No, I've read quite a few. :)


message 20: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments Oh, so your comment was telling others that it would be a good first time but for that genre, right?


message 21: by Trisha, lives on coffee (new)

Trisha | 30284 comments yes :)


message 22: by Andreea Oxi (new)

Andreea Oxi (oxolicious) I've read Catching Jordan (Hundred Oaks, #1) by Miranda Kenneally for this challenge, I've had it on the to-read shelf since the 1st of October, 2012. Glad I could read it AND buddy-read it :D

Okay, I'll figure it out!


message 27: by Gisbelle (new)

Gisbelle | 25787 comments Vic, this weekly theme is almost over :)


message 28: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments Guess I'm tired! Lol I meant that comment for Jordan's upcoming week. I love it.

I'm reading Heart on a Chain for this week. I know that you said you are not interested in the book because you don't like the cover, but you know what they say: don't judge a book by its cover!!!


message 29: by Gisbelle (new)

Gisbelle | 25787 comments Great to hear it you enjoyed your pick :) I'll find time to read it :D

message 36: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments Awe, thanks Gis. I think you'd like the book! Do you like this cover any better?


message 37: by Gisbelle (new)

Gisbelle | 25787 comments This cover version does look better than the other one :) But like you said, we should not judge a book by its cover, right?

BUT VIC, I LOOOOVE PRETTY COVERS!
