I choose Undercover Boyfriend (One Fine Day, #1) by Jacob Z. Flores and Fear, Hope, and Bread Pudding (Coda Books, #6; Strawberries for Dessert, #2) by Marie Sexton for you. A series to start and one to work on finishing!

Whoa so many good titles! Okay, you may groan when when you see this, but I'm going to choose Every Man Dies Alone by Hans Fallada as one book. It's huge, but it reads so fast you won't even notice the page count. I really liked it. To counter its heavy subject matter, I'll choose Breakfast at Tiffany's by Truman Capote for the second book. I hope you like these as much as I did!

Pieces of Sky by Trinity Doyle The Guy, the Girl, the Artist and His Ex by Gabrielle Williams Crash (Twinmaker, #2) by Sean Williams

Emma Ruth I chose for you
Pieces of Sky by Trinity Doyle and The Last of the Belles and Other Stories by F. Scott Fitzgerald
I don't know either book but the second sounds like a really go summer read...with a tall glass of iced tea in the shade of a big tree or on the porch swing.

Nina, your post is a bit confusing. If any of the [Bookcover: XXXX] are interrupted by the "..." in your post, it will cut off what you're trying to say. Can you edit your comment and make it a bit more clear what you are choosing for Karen ♐? Thanks so much!

For you, I pick Secret of the Painted Lady (Danger Cove, #1) by Elizabeth Ashby and The Mystery of the Yellow Room by Gaston Leroux , because they both sounded really interesting. Hopefully I was right in thinking that. ^_^

I also made a post earlier, asking her to clarify her picks for you, but she's not seen them yet, I think. Her profile is set to private, so I can't PM her either about it. If she's not back by the cut off next Tuesday, I will make sure you get picks, Karen! I apologize that this has happened to you!
