What a great selection of books! This is fun.
I love how that list looks up there! Thanks Grey! This is such a fun game.
Lisa wrote: "We are fantastic. I love us!!!"Me too, Lisa! I can't wait to hear what some of you think about books I enjoyed and what others think about books I might want to move up on my tbr.
Thanks so much Grey and Fabi for keeping this all organized for us every month!
I am excited too! I look forward to everyone's reactions. Problem is, instead of reducing our TBR, we end up increasing it! 😄 Oh well, that is what we are here for right? The love of books.Too bad Maryse doesn't participate. 😔
WHAT A GREAT LIST THIS MONTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ESPECIALLY SINE SOME OF MY FAVES ARE UP THERE!WE ROCK HARD!

That made me laugh. I kind of dont want you to. Just to keep randomly popping in, "I can't find Anna's shelf!"

Awww, give poor Michelle a break. She's bound to be stressing. I clicked on the link in Fabi's post and it went right to Anna's pick for me shelf. I hope you find it, Michelle - if not, I'll go to it and tell you what's on her list :D I'm helpful that way!
Michelle wrote: "Still can't find Anna's shelf!"Pick For Me Here is the link. :) I don't need you to pick right away. I probably won't get to it until late next week. No rush.
I've started mine and liking it already! ACOTAR.
Same. Started mine and liking it so far.
Me too and loving it. Leslie did so good!
Paula wrote: "Jan - did you finish May's?"No. It was pretty slow and I got side-tracked by other shinies. (What's new?) But I haven't totally given up. It wasn't horrible, just slow. So I'd like to give it another try sometime. It was
Sorry for the bad pick Jan! Her CR are normally pretty good, guess PNR not so much
Finished and LOVED it. 4 stars and a huge thank you to Leslie. *muah*
I'm waiting to read mine since I'm excited about it. Getting other reads out of the way...
I am about 25% into mine
So far, I like the story sooooo much better than other KA's I tried...I am just worried I will get bored as KA can be "wordy".

Yay!! I think I need to add to my list of m/m to try.

Don't think about it....just enjoy the story!
I finally found Anna's Pick For Me shelf! It was buried - and my phone didn't go to the additional pages. WOW. There there are a lot of shelves there, my friend. Okay, so the only two on your list that I have read are The Opportunist and Wallbanger. So... what are you in the mood for? Funny sexy (Wallbanger) or some mind-f*ckery?
Oooh, Anna's going to get a great pick either way! Both of those books are awesome!
Paula wrote: "Sorry for the bad pick Jan! Her CR are normally pretty good, guess PNR not so much"Not your fault Paula. I put it on my shelf after all. I do like some of her CRs so I was keen to try her pnr. But yeah, it didn't really grab me.

I have an addiction to creating shelves. :) I'm in the mood for a funny sexy book.
Well, I looked and you have Wallbanger on your shelf. That qualifies and funny and sexy.
Wallbanger is my pick for you then, Anna!
Michelle wrote: "Wallbanger is my pick for you then, Anna!"That book is hilarious! And so, so sexy too!
Done with my pick for me book. Thank you, Amy. I thoroughly enjoyed Sex Love Repeat. A 4 star read for me. My twisted mind would have preferred she had made a different choice, but no...that wouldn't have been the right ending!
I'm starting mine today! Since there are mixed reviews from everyone here, I'm curious to see if I like it!
Well, I was going to start today, but I just got Sugar & Gold thru Netgalley and now I'm feeling squirrelly!
OMG Jean - you HAVE to read it. Now!!! Nik is amazing. The story is amazing. It's a quick read too. It's got swoony moments, heart stopping moments, angsty moments...and it's got at least a zillion quotes you will want to highlight!
Ela wrote: "I'm in a book slump..."The new Christina Lauren standalone is coming out today. Just sayin'......
Mine is dead done. Dnf. Sorry for the language in my update but that seriously upset me.
Nope. Nada. Delete.
Nope. Nada. Delete.
I just looked and saw why. Nope, no other words needed. That language was appropriate.

Thank you. It can be satisfying, but I also always see/hear my mom.

Wow....sorry that was such an awful pick. Had no clue...but I would have had a huge issue with that too!!!
Lisa, it was my pick. No apologies. I bought it years ago after it was on the blog. I put it on my shelf for this challenge. At some point I would of read it.
This is just one of my buttons.

Bev, I used to have Jahleel
on my TBR....I was looking forward to your thoughts to try to remember why I removed it. Ugh! It sounds like its not for me too.
No judgement please but I don't remember those words because I probably blocked them out because I otherwise loved the book.
Absolutely no judgment, Ela. A ton love this book. I bought it off of Maryse's review and people in the comments loved it.
There are tons of things that I read over that are buttons for others.
I kept going over in my head how she meant that scene to be read.....but anyway it just killed the heroine for me.

Ela, no judgement sweetie. As long as you don't hold me down and make me read Transcendence.
