I took all the books in my TBR stack and stuck them back on the shelf to start over this month. The stack was so big they were falling off the stand!

I stole this idea (with permission) from the SOS: Serious Overload of Series group.
Duration: September 1st through September 30th.
Rules: Choose two of the three 3 options below. Color may be the predominant color of the book, or a “pop” of color that catches your eye. Holidays are explained. Items may be found on the cover, or the word found within the storyline. Be sure to post your book covers, dates read, and star ratings. You may join at any time during the month. Feel free to do all three, or more, if you want.
Member Choosing: Nichole has been a GoodReads member since November, 2011, and a participant of Happily Ever After Café since January, 2013. She calls herself a “late reader,” as she just started reading about eight years ago. She loves ALL kinds of Romance; however, Paranormal is probably her favorite – right now, anyway! She’s a self-proclaimed nerd; even her maiden initials were NRD :) She’s been married for 12 years to her Teddy Bear husband. (She declares he gives the best hugs!) She smiles and laughs a lot; loves to joke around.
COLORS: Her favorite: Blue!
