Hi everyone,I wanted to participate in this challenge, but I have so much other books to read that I am not going to commit to anymore challenges until I get caught up on the books that I have yet to read. I am sorry for the inconvenience I will try to participate next time. Good luck to everyone participating.

You can always make a shelf with those "must read" books and we can help pick one for you to read :)
But I totally understand if you can't take another challenge! :) I hope you tackle those books this month!

Thank you. I am sorry if I messed up the partners for this challenge since I am no longer participating.

Hi there I am new to this group. This sounds like a very fun challenge to do! If I am not too late I would love to join. I did some snooping around and noticed everyone's shelf was called pick-me-a-winner so I named it that. If I did anything wrong with the name or something else just tell me. Thank you!https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...
Welcome everyone! So excited to see you guys all signed up!I've updated through here! Please let me know if I missed you on accident!!
@ Isabelle: Of course! Great to have you!
@ Raven: Thank you!! I've added a note to myself just in case we need someone to double partners :) That's awesome!
@ Haley, No you are definitely on time! Glad to have you join!
@ Sabrina! Welcome to the group and challenge! Your profile is set to private so I couldn't see the shelf, but as long as you accept the friend request when your partner sends it (or you can request friends first), you should be all good :)
9 more days to sign up!!
I didn't actually know no one could see my shelf so I set it for anyone to be able to see my shelf. If it still doesn't work please tell me. I haven't played with the settings on this website often ahahahaha

Updated through hereWelcome everyone! I'm so excited to have you guys sign up for this challenge. I love it too and I've missed it :)
I'm in! Seems like a great way to get books off the to-read list. https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...
5 more days to sign up!
yes, CC, looks good!! :) I've added you!just 3 more day!!
I'm in. My shelf is HEREThese are some of my favorite, most highly recommended books, mostly about Russia, that I really think more people should know. It seems like Tsarina is the most common YA book about the Russian royal family and I hope at least some other person will find a more historically accurate alternative.

You've already rated those books. You speak of them very highly, so I'm sure you wouldn't mind reading them again, but most people choose books they haven't read yet for this challenge, because somebody will choose books for you to read from your list.

Oh, I thought that this was recommending for a partner, never mind. I will change the shelf.
Here is the new for-challenge shelf:
https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...
My opinions in my earlier post are the same.
I am sorry if I came off mean on my last post. I was just trying to let you know. I'm not very eloquent.
Updated! One more day to sign up!Thanks Isabelle for helping! I have your shelf Neurotic Princess Maria! :)
Trisha, not to rush you but about when do you anticipate posting partners?

let me know if you have questions!
I hope your pick is a Winner :)
Becky and Vicki - yay! Vicki I'll pick some for you this afternoon! :-)
My partner is Neurotic_Princess_Maria and I pick1.
because I've always been interested in the series.
2.
because you said that you really liked obscure Russian Royal family novels.
3.
because who doesn't like Georgette Heyer type novels right?
I hope one of these is a winner for you :)
My Partner is Caseyand for you I choose:
1.
because I dug through your 5 star rated books and you seem to like paranormal. This is a very loved book and I think you might like it too!
2.
because I have seen some amazing reviews on this one and I hope that means it's good and you will love it :)
3.
because I absolutely loved this one and I hope that means you will too.
I hope whichever one you pick is a winner!!
For Sabrina I choose1.
I have been wavering on whether or not to read this series. And I'm curious about what you think of it.
2.
Its an extremely popular series and I have read the first three books in the series. And I would love to compare thoughts on the book if you finish it.
3.
I read the synopsis for the first book in the series and I have to admit the series looks pretty interesting.
My partner is Leah. Actually I have not read any of the books she has on her shelf, but there were a few that seemed really interesting and are now on my TBR list as well. I chose
1.
Because it's compared to The Breakfast Club and that is one great movie.
2.
because it was not the only book on your shelf about time travel. I love time travel books myself, if you haven't read it yet, I recommend The Ruby Red Trilogy.
3.
because there was a contemporary novel, a fantasy novel, so it's historical fiction time now. I find Russian history fascinating so it's on my TBR list now as well.
My Partner is Vicki and I chose for her:1.
Because it's one of the only ones we BOTH have shelved and I like the cover
2.
Because it sounds REALLY interesting
3.
Because Jennifer Armentrout rocks major.
my partner is TRISHA and for you I have chosen:
I read your review of Trial by Fire and saw how much you loved it.. hopefully the second one is just as good!!
from the synopsis this book sounds very interesting! I will defs be adding this to my to read shelf as well..
just for some fun and zombies:) this book sounds hilarious and has received some good reviews..
happy reading
