Anna & Tessa, I hate sad/depressing books, I can't deal with them. I'm a giant wuss. I loved It Ends With Us. It has emotional parts and yes, ..."

Remove the quotes I added around the letter a of the tag.
Overwrite the URL with your own.
Overwrite "my link text" with your own text.
<"a" href="http://www.goodreads.com">my link text"a">
There are some HTML tips in the link in the upper right hand corner or the comment box. You can also look at w3schools.com html references.

Pick For Me
Yay! I got it! I had already looked at the '(some html is ok)' link at the top, but I was just not 'getting it'. The lightbulb finally clicked! Thanks, Fabi!!

GR is pretty limited in the HTML it allows for users.

I cannot deal with fictional death, but when it's real life death...I practically need medication.
So when some of you are all gushing about "death books", I'm staying far, far away.


Most websites that I've posted and labeled links on just allow me to type the text within the link and delete all the extra URL 'stuff' around it, and that's what was confusing me because GR wouldn't let me simply do that.

Whats funny is recently you said you were cleaning up your TBR and I noticed you..."
Yes, Leslie. I have a disease...



I canno..."
Yup! That Song!

Renee, you've added 200 books in 2 days? :-O"
Oh no! I'm wrong. I only added about 40 in the last 10 days. I just seemed like 200, I guess!

I used to do that too!!! That's how my tbr got so out of control. Because no matter how much I read, it'll never be 4 books a day. I think the most I've ever read is two a day and that was unusual for me.


I'm with you on that Leslie...

Wow, that's a hell of a goal. I'm just trying to keep mine under 1500. I keep having to into it and delete every few days.
But I won't delete anything I own, even if it was free and I'll never read it. So there's a limit to how small it will ever get.

Ooh, that's true, Fabi. I'm guessing, but I'd say I have over 2000 free books from Amazon on my cloud, but I've marked only a fraction of them on GR. That's another project for another day though! lol I'll just choose to not think about those right now!



I still do not have all of mine in. I use the tool, but sometimes I forget if ive read it or not. Or maybe started it. Some I have no memory of buying or what the book is about, lol.


Please check the link next to your name to make sure it is correctly going to your challenge thread.
I know Amy is working on her shelf. Anyone else still working on it? I'm happy to help with anything.

Ela, Michelle needs to read Red Queen. I can't believe she hasn't yet. (On that note, I can't believe I haven't read the third book yet.)


I'm happy though, because I'm currently reading two that I've wanted to read for a very long time. I'm always happy when I can get even a couple off my "really want to read this" tbr.

Added it...

This is going to be so much fun especially when Grey came up with the brilliant plan of combining lists of pick for me and others favorites!

I have it for my Fabi pick on the buddy challenge. The hard back. Hmm. When I read it wish away to send on without giving out addresses.

ELA - you make me feel so good about my purchases to read list at 3456 - I can buy hundreds more and not feel guilty!!
