Good Morning Connie! I rolled a 2 so it's Artist/Dancer/Musician Romance for me this week.

[Connie N.]

Thanks, Grace, I'll get to it later today.

For me this week, I rolled a 3 so it's a Road trip Romance.

[Connie N.]

Week 4 - Connie picks for Grace
I've read all of these and enjoyed them to varying degrees. All but the last are new-to-you authors, I think.

Dance - OR

Music - OR

Art -

[Grace]

Thanks for the picks Connie! I'm thinking about All I Need Is You or Rock It. I've been out and about these past two days but I'll get your picks up tonight or tomorrow.

[Grace]

For Connie Week 4 Road Trip
These picks are heavy on the historical romance, but I'm saving some contemporary books for the musician/artist roll.

~This is a medieval road trip book were the heroine travels to Scotland to be with her best friend when she has her first baby. It's not historically accurate at times, but I love the light hearted style of Julie Garwood.

~This is an emotional book with the hero escorting his brother's bride to town. Along the way they fall in love. Must have tissues when reading.

~I'm not one hundred percent sure, but I'm almost positive the heroine travels to Paris to meet the hero. A great historical with a smart witty heroine.

~I'm stretching road trip but the heroine does travel to Atlanta in the book so I'm counting it. This is a paranormal series, and I have to warn it starts out slow. When I first read it I didn't see the fuss, but about a fourth of the way through it becomes crazy good. The series just gets better and better and really picks up steam on the third book.

[LaurLa]

Stacie - Here are your Humorous Recs... At least I hope so! Humor is a funny thing (no pun intended). Your funny might not be my funny :-P

- I always find Christie Craig to be humorous!

- there were some good LOL moments in this series (and some hot ones!!)

... also known as Bobbie Faye's Very (very, very, very) Bad Day. Similar to Stephanie Plum series only WAY better! (imo)

[Stacie]

LaurLa, this is hard! I already recommended all the good ones I know ;)

Recommendations for LaurLa for Artist/Dancer/Musician romance

Never read it but it sounds really good!

I was surprised at how much I liked this one.

Guess I found more books than I thought I had read ;) Enjoy!

I'm so far behind. I've only read week 1 and 2. Let's blame Wobble.

[LaurLa]

Geeky Recs for you, Stacie!


- I haven't read this yet but it's on my TBR...

- I'm not a YA fan but this was cute. It's also out of order, but I didn't feel like I'd missed anything when I read it.

- again, out of order, but you don't need the others.

- this was kind of fun.

Enjoy!!!

Thanks for recs. I will try to read Nice Girls Don't Have Fangs

[Grace]

Good Morning Connie! Sorry for the late post, I was at the zoo yesterday. This week, I rolled a 1, humorous romance. I'll get your picks posted tonight

[Connie N.]

Connie picks for Grace - Humorous Romance

- I didn't see Sophie Kinsella on your list. Have you really not read her? Her books are always entertaining and light, especially in audio.

- I particularly enjoyed this series which was clever, with lots of dry-humor-type jokes. Also great in audio, if you're into that kind of thing.

- The whole concept of this book was funny, I thought.

- This is more chick-lit-y, but still amusing. An English comedy type of story.

Humor is pretty personal, really, but I hope you'll find these light and charming, even if you don't laugh out loud. (And they'll all help you out if you're looking for cover colors for a challenge.)

[Grace]

Picks for Connie Week 5 Artist/Dancer/Musician

: This is a hilarious mystery series about a dance instructor. It reminded me of Janet Evanovich's writing. I laughed out loud a ton during this book.

: This is a book about life long friends, one who happens to be a musician. It deals with cancer and is on the serious side, but this whole series was amazing. Plus Mari Carr has to be one of my favorite authors.

: A tattoo artist who was former military. It's a romantic suspense and I enjoyed it a lot.

: A regency romance about an heiress who hides as a governess to follow her dreams.

[Connie N.]

Thanks, Grace. Not sure which one I'll read, but I'm leaning toward Fix You.

[Stacie]

Sports romance for LaurLa!

Start reading the Cold Fury series by Sawyer Bennett

is #1 and they just get better from there imo.





Hockey, hockey, hockey, rugby. Notice a theme?

Hi Everyone!

I can't believe it is the start of Week 6 already!

This is the last week of the challenge and therefore no need to roll for this week. You should all have one category left to read, having read a different category each week.

Enjoy your last category (mine is Western) - I hope you find a great read this week!

Thanks again for participating and I really hope you enjoyed the challenge :)

We are making some tweaks to the next round and will probably launch it some time in the Fall (look for sign ups in October).

[Connie N.]

Grace, my remaining category is "Western."

[♎ Nereta♎]

I read King for western week. It is on Katherines read shelf

[Connie N.]

Week 6 - Connie picks for Grace (Geek/Nerd/Opposites Attract Romance)

- I haven't read this but it's on my TBR. I don't read a lot of Geek/Nerd books, but this sounds good.

- Very much "opposites attract," although the there's not a lot of romance in this book. I wouldn't recommend the audio--the voicing for Barrons is not very good.

- I liked this contemporary romance, with a bit of deception thrown in.

- I've read most of the other books in this series, although I haven't yet gotten to this one. The characters in the Stiletto and Oxford series are all great, with lots of recurrence in each book.

- I see you've read this author before, but I couldn't resist including it. I'm listening to the audio right now and finding it fascinating. Definitely an opposites attract story.

Thanks, Grace, for all your great picks.

I didn't read one of the recs, mostly because I was behind on other challenges and this one fit here too. The h is an artist.

I still haven't read for week 3 but plan to read Corralled in the next couple of days.

Stacie, since we weren't supposed to have to roll this week, what category do you have left? I think it's 2=Artist/Dancer/Musician Romance but tell me if I'm wrong.

Since I accidentally repeated a category, I have left 1 and 6... whichever you find easiest to pick for is fine with me :-)
