Amy, you did not post a shelf by the time that Sign Ups closed, and thus will not be paired with anyone. Please make sure you read all guidelines and deadlines for next month so you don't miss out again!

Entre tonos de gris by Ruta Sepetys - I've had this recommended to me but haven't read it yet, so I'll be interested in your reaction.

Stolen A Letter to My Captor by Lucy Christopher - I have this on my TBR also. It sounds fascinating.

Enjoy!

Debbie (Doc) | 1496 comments Hi VampAmber,

No stress here - just read what you want, and if you don't finish there's always next month! I chose two for you that I think will be cozy or at least easy reads.

The Nanny's Secret Child (Home to Dover, #7) by Lorraine Beatty and Ragnarok (I Bring the Fire, #6) by C. Gockel

I'm on book three of Bring the Fire.

Happy Reading

Robyn-Lee,
I applaud your selections this month and support your drive to read books from your homeland. Therefore, I am choosing for you:

This Place I Call Home by Meg Vandermerwe and Cry, the Beloved Country by Alan Paton

I will look forward to hearing how you like these books as Afrikaans Lit is not something I have been exposed to. I might have to try one of them myself...

Plethora (bookworm_r) | 487 comments Iris

I pick Throne of Glass (Throne of Glass, #1) by Sarah J. Maas and The Blood of Crows (Anderson & Costello, #4) by Caro Ramsay for you.

Tried to pick different genres in case you are in the mood for one and not the other.

I have read Throne of Glass and plan on reading book three this month myself. The other book is a series I haven't read.

Enjoy.

Thank you Agnieszka. I'll probably start with Hide and Seek: The Story of a Wartime Agent but still hopefully also squeeze in The Map Thief.
