Red Queen failed for me a bit I think because I was listening to it and it drags a lot. But I really enjoyed Night Myst. :)

Thank you!

Hi Erin,
I have finished two of your picks for me: and . Both were good, and I have been trying to get to them for a while, so thanks for the push to finish them.
I hope to get at least one more finished before month's end, but we will see about that since I have to cook a huge Thanksgiving dinner for family.
Thanks again for such good picks!

KathyD and Sonal,

Read my second pick. It was good!!

Didn't get a lot of reading done this month. Last week we had to say goodbye to our furbaby, so was not in the mood to read the last few weeks. Hopefully next month will be better.

Thanks Sonal,

She was diagnosed with Mast Cell tumor (stage 4 in humans) on September 22. They gave her 6-12 months...she didn't last 2.

Suzanne - I'm about half way through . It's such a great book - thank you for introducing it to me.

I also managed to squeeze in . Wasn't nearly as thrilled about this book but it has been sitting unloved on my TBR shelf for a while so I'm very happy to have gotten around to reading it. Thank you for that too!

Hey FRAN

I got through some of your choices this month!

Superhero finished 11/28/15. This was so adorable. I just loved it!

Manwhore +1 finished 11/5/15 I definitely enjoyed this follow up book. Malcom Saint is kind of a new obsession!

Seduced finished 11/27/15 Great story by these two authors. I loved all the back story we got with the characters. It's made me look forward to starting the series. I felt bad for Nick though. I'm not sure how the whole Nick, Jazz, Gray love triangle is going to truly end up though. Lots of drama there. And Simon and violin chick? There's definitely a story there. Thanks for the rec. I already had this and really hadn't though of reading it, and now I've got a new series to look forward to!

Shards of Hope finished 11/23/15. Wow, just wow! I LOVED this one. I can't believe that we're 14 books in and this author has the ability keep on blowing me away with this story line. Loved Aden and Zaria. What a great couple they were. Loved seeing the sea changelings. I hoping we get more of them in future books.


The Trouble With Tony finished 11/29/15. This was so funny and cute. I chuckled my who way through it. Eli Easton has been 100% with me. I think she's going to be an auto buy for me from now on.

Anyway, I think that's it for me at this point. I've enjoyed the picks this month. The one's I didn't get to, I did put on my TBR! THANKS!

[fleurette]

Amy,

in the last day of November I was able to finish one more of my picks - by Tracy Anne Warren. It was much better than I expected. Thanks for pushing me to read it.

Thanks Breann for the amazing picks. I read 6 books from your list: 4 from my TBR and 2 new to me. I enjoyed them all!

Hey Rebecca!

I ended up reading and . The first was quick and easy; the second dragged on foreverrrr....or at least it seemed that way since it took me a bit to get into and through it. Still, it's always great to get things off your TBR, right? Thanks for the picks!

[MountainKat, Moderator]

Hi Stacie! I read two more of my picks! Seduction Game by Pamela Clare was great! And The Hero by Robyn Carr was the perfect book to listen to during Thanksgiving week! Thank you for all the awesome picks, I ended up reading seven overall and adding more to the TBR too!

Sorry this is coming so late, November was crazy busy. I actually started several of your recommendations during the month, but with Thanksgiving and school work, I only managed to finish before month's end. I definitely plan to continue with as soon as time allows. I have added several others to my list. Thanks for all the great suggestions!
