2013 March Pick It For Me! Challenge

[amelia]

Okay, so I choose the book myself?

[Breann]

No, you sign up by answering the question. Then when sign ups are closed MountainKat will pair us up and then we pick for our partner.

[amelia]

Okay, thank you both for helping me :)

[Breann]

No problem! Just make sure to tell Kat which character/genre you choose so she can group us :)

Milly, read the first post in the thread and see if that helps to explain things for you. There is a link there that might help too. In this challenge you will be assigned someone to pick for and someone will pick books for you based on some picking rules/guidelines that I will post after the sign-ups are closed. You can look at the challenge for February to see how it works too - February PIFM

I've added it to my 'read this next shelf'. I have GOT to read this series. I feel like i've been missing out. LOL

[Lacy]

Okay, I'm on the waiting list at my library for Cut and Run!

[Fran, Moderator]

I am sensing a March buddy read....

[Dee]

didn't we do C&R as a buddy read like 6 months or so ago (I remember DG hating it...) lol!

[Sassafrass]

I'm going to listen to it on audio I think because I've got to get more male narrators anyway.

LOL! I didn't realize that! Now I want to know why D.G. hated it.

[Dee]

here's her review - http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/... - I remember her being much more passionate in the discussion thread about it

[Joyce]

I think my post got missed #115 Roarke please

actually I'm in the wrong list I'm in Sawyer please move me to Roarke

[MountainKat, Moderator]

I am so sorry Joyce! I will fix it - stupid cold! (You wouldn't believe how many times I just wrote the name Roarke or Sawyer or Bones instead of the person who picked them!!)

ETA: I will go through the entire list again before pairing just to make sure, but if I missed anyone else, please let me know!

[Angi]

okay ladies now you've got me interested in the C&R series now...

[Gigi]

I'm in! Tough question....Roarke or Lord Ian!?!?! I'm going to go with Lord Ian. I have a rrrr-pickitforme shelf.

MK, for BLUE, is "or one whose title or author begins with R" correct or should it be "B"?

I'm not MountainKat, but I'll answer for her anyway - no, R is not correct, it should be B...I can't believe I proofread it for her and we both missed that!!! Thanks for the quick catch :)
