Lethal - she seems to have un-privated and is accepting messages now.

[Ty]

Group 3 - not sure if ~Melissa~ realizes that she can't receive messages. Let's hope she checks in soon.

[Cassia]

I'm working my way through picks today! :)

[Nadine Bookaholic]

Hi group three!

I have been out of commission for several days but I hope to get onto a computer by tomorrow and I will message my picks for you then.

Happy reading everyone!!!

[Juliet]

Alright, I am done picking for everyone in Group 2. Let me know if I missed you!

[Dragana]

Ok, I am also officially done picking for Group 2. I double-checked but if I somehow managed to skip you, let me know.

[Fran, Moderator]

I'm finished picking for Group 4. If I've missed you, please let me know :)


Thanks to Group 4 for my picks so far, I love them!

[Donna]

I sent my picks last night to everyone in Group 4. I hope everyone likes their picks!

[Skandia]

I have sent out all my recs for Group 3. Can't wait to start reading!

[~Melissa~]

Hi Group 3 - sorry about the not accepting PM's. FOrgot I had set my settings that way from a while ago when I kept getting PM's that I didn't want. From people I didn't know.
>>> It's fixed.

I've done about half of my picks. Will get the other half done by Thursday at the latest. I forgot how *eager* every one is for picks in this group LOL :)

[Ty]

Yes, we are very eager in this group - ha!

Thanks for letting us know, Melissa.

[Ty]

As for my group 2. I am sloooowly working on your picks. :)

:D I know the feeling!

[Megan L]

Ok all my picks are done for Group 1. If I missed anybody let me know.

[Hadley]

This so cool!

[Larissa]

Just finished picking for everyone in Group 3 (:

[Gea]

I got all my picks, and these are the books that were picked the most:

Covet by J.R. Ward - 4x
Play of Passion by Nalini Singh - 4x
Primal Bonds by Jennifer Ashley - 3x

And several other books that were picked twice. I didn't pick any of the three books above as I'm not ready to read two of them and I know I'll most probably read Play of Passion before February.

I loved Covet and Play of Passion. I think Primal Bonds may be on my tbr shelf though.

[Gianna]

I think I got everyone in Group 4. I will double check but if you didn't hear from me, please let me know.

To be honest, I don't have a clue how Primal Bonds even ended on that shelf :D I didn't really like the first book and I plan to read this one later in the year when I'm not under impressions from the first one.

Covet looks great but I don't feel like reading it yet at least not until I have Psy-Changeling series under control

[Kristina Simon]

I've received great picks from everyone in Group 4. Thanks, everyone!

Now, the hard part.... waiting for February 1st to start working on my nice, shiny list of books!

[Jojo]

That's all my picks for group 4 - hope everyone has got them.

[Ty]

Nice job, Group 4!

I'm still working on my group, intermittently between breaks at work. Who, what, where? Me? On Goodreads, at work? For shame!

Oh...I know!!! I can't wait until February 1st. Guess I ought to go back and finish my January reads first now *pouts*

[Tina "IRead2Escape"]

I think I have everyone done in Group 4. Let me know if you haven't got an email from me.

[Larissa]

Hi friends,

I'm halfway through my picks, working today so it's slow going on breaks.

I'm a newbie and I hope I did this right. As people picked things for me, I moved them out of the shelf. There were a few overlaps, even so, as I was off the computer for a long while during the picking frenzy. I've got 27 books recommended for me, so there must be more to receive.

This is really fun. A few books that have been lurking on my list are moving to the top. Three people picked Rebecca for me. Hmmm.

[~KarenH~, Moderator]

I finished my picks for group 1 late (very late) last night, so if you didn't receive anything from me, let me know and I'll fix it!

[Valerie]

My picks are all in for Group 3.

Thanks for letting us know...I has just going thru my inbox to make sure I didn't accidently delete the message. Other then you, I'm still waiting for two others, so all is good. :)

[~Melissa~]

@Larissa ~ I think it means it's time to read Rebecca,lol.

Group 3 ~ I sent out all my picks. If I missed someone let me know :)

[Tina "IRead2Escape"]

The 3 most suggested from my shelf were:

Texas Hold 'Em by Christie Craig x 4
Wild Heat by Bella Andre x3

[Lauren]

Thanks group 4 for all the wonderful picks - February is going to be fun, fun, fun!

Larissa, I think I counted at least 3, if not 4 recommendations for Outlander in my Meet and Greet picks, not to mention that it was a January Pick It For Me selection from Becca. With so many recommendations, I said the same thing as ~Melissa~: Time to read Outlander!

Yes, it's time! I have a lot to say about that book, good and bad, so I'll wait to see if you read it and then maybe we can discuss. I will say that it was one of the books that inspired me to write my own.

[Ty]

Ha. As soon as a book gets picked twice, I move it off the list, more choices to read that way...

[Cassia]

Group 2 I have sent out all your picks. Please let me know if someone didn't get one from me.

[Sassafrass]

I do believe that I have sent out all of my picks. If I missed anyone in GROUP 3, please let me know.

[Christina]

Ok, all of my picks for group 2 are done. Let me know if I missed anyone!

[Nichole]

I've finished doing my picks for group 1. If I missed anyone, let me know!

[Jane]

I believe all my picks for group 3 are finished now. If not please let me know. I have them all backed up if they got lost. :-)

[Becca]

I'm on my way home from work so I'll try to get my picks done before I run!!

[Turtlecollector Dennis]

I have all my picks from my group decided except for Nadine, who I hear is having computer issues. There are great choices and I hope to make it through all of them!

[Angi]

I can't wait for February to get here just so I can start reading all of the wonderful picks everyone has made. :)

[Rachel-RN]

Everyone (from Group 4) should have something from me. If you don't let me know!
Now I wish I was at home so I could organize which ones I pick.

[Jaime]

Ok.. Hopefully got everyone from group 4. Let me know if I missed ya.

[Becca]

Alrighty! I think I've got everyone in group 1 taken care of!! Let me know if I missed anyone!! :)

[Kristina Simon]

Okay, at least 5 people recommended The Marriage Bargain for me and I still didn't pick it. A little hard-headed maybe??

[Aarati]

Ohh I got four each of and 3 of
