Runell The Opportunist was an excellent book I really enjoyed it! I gave it 5 star! Next is Connected!! Thanks a again for a great pick!
I finished my first pick Beautiful Darkness. It was really good. I gave it 5 stars. I hope to read Providence and Time Between Us also this month.
Zara--I just finished my third PIFM book this month,
and liked it. It has some interesting observations about French and American culture. Thanks for the recommendation.

Awesome!! I am so glad you are enjoying your picks! And I did warn you that Let's Hear it for the Boy had me sobbing all night long.
AmyI finished my third pick
I enjoyed it. It was a quick read and I wish there was more of an ending or a follow-up I was left hanging wanting more.
Hi Ab2y! I forgot to tell you that I finished Neanderthal Seeks Human: A Smart Romance a few day ago. Great read! I loved quirky, awkward Janie. I don't think I would've picked this up on my own so I truly appreciate the recommendation. This is what I love about this challenge!
Carla, I finished
and gave it 4 stars. It was a good historical western romance but as the series moves to England in next book I won't continue with it. There's a series about hero and heroine's parents that looks interesting though
@DianneI finished
and its definitely the best in the series so far. Gin is such a great heroine and I can't wait to see what she gets up to next.

Woohoo!!
Karen H This was my 6th PIFM and I really enjoyed reading
. I'd never read a book like this before (rock bands and behind the scenes) so it was a whole new world to me. I enjoyed it... I rated it 4 stars and will read more books in the series. Thanks!
I have had a blast with this challenge. It was my very first challenge and I cant wait for more :) Trouble in Mudbug9/5/13

Brandilyn, I finally finished my first pick...it's been a REALLY slow reading month for me. I read The Melody Thief and loved it! Thanks for picking it for me. I'm hoping to get through a few more picks this month, but the way things have been going so far I'm not too sure...
Thanks Karen, They were really great picks. I plan to read another 2 or 3 of them this month... and believe it or not, I will read them all by the end of October. Thanks for introducing me to some really great books. I'm glad you got to pick for me this month.

DOH! I wish I'd seen this in time! :D Sounds like a fun challenge, and I hope you're all enjoying it!

Oh, YAY! Thank you for saying so... I'll be sure to check back frequently so I catch it in time! :D
Hi Dee, I finished my fourth pick - Flowers from the Storm. I quite enjoyed it and thought the narration was very good. Thanks for another great pick! I hope to get to a few more, but first I have to check off some other books for some challenges! Fingers crossed there is still time left towards the end of the month!

This month has been CRAAAAYYYY for me so I haven't been around but I've been popping in from time to time :)Here's some halfway point cover-love ♥♥♥
Fran!I finished both
and
. Both 4 stars! liked them well enough. I smiled, maybe got a teensy bit teary-eyed on the latter book. I can still do BR of
if you have time. :D

I'm so glad you liked them both :)
I would still like to read Shine Not Burn with you! Is it ok if we start it closer to the 21st or so? I am struggling to find time to finish the two books I have going right now, and a few library books came in that I would like to get to because they have to be back by a certain time.
My high school senior has me hopping with college applications, essays, road test, etc. right now....
Hi Nichole!I finished my first pick,
and I really enjoyed it. I loved the setting of Milan, Cary and Antonio, and the added bonus of Antonio's son. Thanks for the pick :)I plan to finish my second pick,
tomorrow. I really like it so far :)

Zara--I just finished my fourth PIFM book this month,
and totally loved it. I read the one prior to catch up as well. Thanks for the recommendation--I read the first one a long time ago and somehow never picked up the next. These books are so funny, and I love Miss Julia's character. I will be reading more of this series soon, thanks.
LeslieI finished
last night and really enjoyed it. I'm planning to continue on to the next book. I also finished
. Great addition to the series.
Nichole,I finished my second pick,

Brandilyn,I finished my second pick today, Life in Fusion, and I really enjoyed it. I liked it a lot better than I did the first book in the series, which was just ok for me. Thanks for giving me the nudge to finally read this one!
AmyI finished

Hi Bre!I just finished up Love, Delivered. It was adorable and everything I would want a book from Cassandra Gold to be. :) After a streak of 1 and 2 star books, this was VERY welcome. Thanks so much for the pick!
LeslieI finished
last night and really enjoyed it. I'm definitely going to read more in this series.
Karen H, I finished my 7th pick this evening! I enjoyed it very much... and also since I live in CO (near Denver) it made it extra special. I gave it 3.5-4 stars and I will absolutely read the rest in the series. I also plan on reading your other 2 picks but it will have to be next month.
Thanks!
