Hello all!

The time has come to choose your book selections for your June 2017 read in the PIFM challenge.

The rules are:-

* You can choose any number of books. A minimum of two and up to a maximum of 10.

* Please, only ONE MESSAGE per member. That means NO REPLYING or CHATTING in this thread.

* Once you have made your selections and posted, when your votes start to come in you can then add your votes cast by other members beneath your book titles ie. the following might be how my list would look:-

Little Black Lies - Sharon Bolton
x 1 - Christine

Pretty Girls - Karin Slaughter
x 1 - Brenda
x 1 - Perri

How you post is your choice, you can link, do pictures, the above is just an example. The key is that you stick with the one message and update it as the votes come in. Your list can be placed when the June threads go up.

Vicki Willis I am choosing the 5 books that have been on my TBR the longest and I actually own. The crazy thing is that I went through a phase where I added a lot of free/cheap books on my kindle and I don't even remember adding them. But they are here and I wanted to knock some of them off. Who knows, maybe I may even love them!
