Pick For Me challenge
That scene sounds so familiar. Either I read that book & forgot, or maybe you guys quoted it on the blog? Need to go research now.

I once cried so hard about the death of a fictional character my college roomie thought someone in my family died. She was not a reader and wondered what was wrong with me.

I've been deleting freebies from my Kindle Cloud if I know I'm never going to read them. Having so many freebies makes it hard to find something I want to read if I'm randomly scrolling through my books.
Jean wrote: "And I haven't read Red Queen yet either!"I haven't read Red Queen or The Goal. With Red Queen I was waiting until the series was complete. Is the series complete yet?

Hope that worked!
The train. The train in london. So glamorous, Paula.
I'm flunking my current challenge too..... boo hoo......I just can't make my finger click on the March TBR challenge book I'm SUPPOSED to be reading (Thoughtless.... I know, I know, Kellan's so hot and everything......)
But my finger just won't do it! Blame the fickle finger for my lack of self-discipline.
*eagerly turns back to The Opposite Of You*
Glad you can join Tasha. :-). And even if we run it monthly, you can join as many or as few months as you like.
Okay, here it is. https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...
It's 27 books but gimme a break! I have over 2800 in my library!!!
That's good Amy. That's a good amount. The 20ish suggestion is to avoid those monster tbr lists some of us have.
Pfft, Amy I'd either have you read Consequences or Ten Tiny Breaths. Both good for totally opposite reasons.
List updated through this post.I thought I saw Tasha add her list. But now I don't see it. Anyone else see it?
Robin, I could be wrong. I noticed it the other day but really thought I was wrong. You seem to have 5 on your list that you've already read and rated. Do you mean them to be re-reads?

Last comment I saw on this thread was that she was off to make her list yesterday afternoon!
I saw that she had a shelf with 2 books on it when I was looking through her books last night for my read from her 5-stars, but I don't remember seeing it here.

Fabi, we're all friends here. Its alright to let your cray cray hang out. ;)Cant wait to start this fun challenge.
LOL girls!!! I'm excited about this too! It's super cool cause we're all friends and know each other's reading tastes. I still haven't decided if I'm going to pick a book I think my PICKEE would love or a book I want my PICKEE to read.Everybody's lists look like samples of my tbr!
I don't suppose anyone else is going to sign up.
I'll start drawing names tonight and post them no later than tomorrow.
Then, maybe a few days to give everyone a chance to pick and post their picks.
Then, it's reading time!
Fabi, are the pickees for the remainder of the year or do they revolve, and it's once a month??? can we do twice???? I can help if you need a picker to pick pickees.... totally not confusingAnyone else?
Once a month we change pickers for pickees! Fun right?Can we do twice? <--- LOL!!! You just want to pick everyone's next read.
Thanks for the offer, but I'm just going to use a randomizer and there's not that many of us anyways so even an old fashioned hat draw would work fine.
nah, it's pickers for pickeesYeah, one book a month unless I get outvoted. After all, this IS a democracy. ;-)
I'm in for one a month too. Still have the monthly challenge, the Pick Me Challenge, the 5 Star Buddy challenge, and the emergency OMG we need to buddy read this right now books that will undoubtedly come up.

Sweet Jesus.
Penises everywhere.
Horror slams into me as I register what I'm seeing. Oh God. I've stumbled onto a penis convention. Big penises and small penises and fat penises and penis-shaped penises. It doesn't matter which direction I move my head because everywhere I look I see penises.”
