Nichole | 620 comments Grrr, I'm not getting any notifications! I'm working on adding these books right now though :)


message 474: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) My notifications are now five hours behind, I give up, I will come back to this all in the morning because it will all be fixed then right?
I know I don't need to worry about this particular thread, but it is irritating ;-)


message 475: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) OK my last book can work for the following
❤️ read a book where the characters go out on a date
❤️ read a book where the characters fall in love
❤️ read a book where the main character has a pet
❤️ read a book where the character is single and remain single
❤️ read a book where
❤️ can possibly work for first kiss, does it need to be the first kiss for this particular couple or your first kiss ever? If it is ever it won't work the character gives a present


message 476: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) I really should go back and re-edit that post, but I'm not going to, can you figure out what I'm trying to say? I hate when that happens ;-)

I missed this... anyways, I think you'll like it. It was cute and very little drama. I like nerds too, being one myself :)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) My oldest son is a self-proclaimed nerd, it did save him in high school that he played baseball, however... so I love nerds as well :-) and it sounds very cute ;-)
