I cannot wait to read it! I added it to my TBR list because of the cover and set in Paris. Thanks for choosing it for me!

[Connie N.]

Jennifer, I'm picking . I like the contrast of the bright bold title against the dark background.

My next five are all kind of cartoony:

[Jennifer]

Oh yay, that's one of my possible "suspense" titles for the book tag lottery this month! Thanks, Connie.

Oh --I just saw you have Dixie Divas up. I ****HAVE**** to choose that for you. It was a lot of fun. OK, my next five will be up in a minute.

[Connie N.]

I finally finished my oldest book from this challenge at Post #384:

The Bride Who Got Lucky by Janna MacGregor - 3/4/22 ♥♥♥♥

[Jennifer]

Yay, Connie! I still have a book left from page 1 of this thread -- ugh.

[Connie N.]

Get to it, girl!

[Jennifer]

right? it's been on my annual list for what, three years now? Maybe this year will be the year.


Oh dear god I just checked: it's been almost five years! That's it. The book is getting read!

[Barb]

Geez, and I felt bad because I haven't gotten to the book Jennifer picked for me a month or two ago :)

[Jennifer]

Oh, make no mistake. I have a "month or two ago" book on the list too.. LOL

[Julia]

Jennifer wrote: ...

Jennifer, I choose for you. (honestly, it was a toss up between that and : both look great)


I have finished (the starkness of the cover fits the starkness of the book, but SO GOOD!!!) so here are my next five (some carryover):

[Jennifer]

Thank you Julia -- I would have had a hard time picking between those too!

[Connie N.]

Julia, I pick because of that bright flash of red that caught my eye.

It's time to choose my next hot-guy cover:

[Jennifer]

I have recently read (and enjoyed) three past picks that were pending:
.

Connie, I'm choosing for you because I like the blue.

My next five:

[Connie N.]

She likes the blue...that's why she picked it. (tee-hee)

[Jennifer]

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Awesome: that's been on my list for ages! Thanks!

[Barb]

Finally finished the book Jennifer chose for me a while ago. Loved it, but have questions that friends are unable to answer -- they're up to date on the series, and I'm wayyyy behind. Maybe the next book will provide some answers? *crossing fingers*

Bury Your Dead (Chief Inspector Armand Gamache #6), by Louise Penny, finished 3/15 ★★★★

[Barb]

Jennifer, the bright yellow title of jumped out at me, so I'm hoping you haven't already read it :)

My next five :

GR "couldn't find" the MKA bookcover, but had no trouble with all the others. Very weird!

[Jennifer]

I have not read it yet. You doll you, picking the O title. Lol

[Barb]

LOL That was a happy accident, and I didn't realize I'd done it until you mentioned it :)

Thanks! I know! It's such a gorgeous color.

[Barb]

Bobbi wrote: "Jennifer wrote: "Bobbi, I'm choosing for you. That blue-purple!"

I really liked that one, hope you do too :)

[Barb]

Finished the book Bobbi chose for me. It was ok, not as good as I'd hoped.

[Barb]

My next five

[Barb]

Sorry, I was reminded that I didn't choose for Jennifer before posting my next five choices. It's been one of those days

Jennifer, all those books on caught my eye, of course :) Now let's hope you haven't already read it.

[Jennifer]

I have not. :)

[Julia]

Barb wrote: "My next five

Barb, I choose , because I've always loved Ellis Peters. Thanks for the reminder that I want to read some more!

I've finished , so here are my next choices:

[Barb]

Thanks, Julia. I really like Brother Cadfael, so I'm looking forward to reading about his next adventure.

[Jennifer]

I finished a pick recently : -- 4 stars.

Julia, I'm choosing for you. The starkness is appealing.

My next five:

[Connie N.]

Jennifer, I keep seeing this cover on your list and my eye is drawn to it every time: I like the red lettering against the smoky sky.

My next five:

[Julia]

Thanks, Jennifer! I love Fae Myenne Ng, so I'm looking forward to reading her first book in quite a while!

[Connie N.]

Just finished my oldest book from this challenge:
Post #571:
Every Time You Go Away by Beth Harbison - 4/18/22 ♥♥♥♥


I've had to revise my list a little bit.
My next five:

[Chelsea]

Connie, I'm choosing because I love the clean black and white of the cover.

I'm down to two on my to-read list for this challenge so I'll add another!

My next five:

[Jennifer]

Right? I was like oh no, too close to finishing at this point! :D

[Barb]

Just finished the book Julia chose for me this round and really liked learning a bit more about Cadfael's life "before" :)

Monk's Hood (Chronicles of Brother Cadfael #3), by Ellis Peters, finished 4/19/22 ★★★★

[Barb]

Jennifer, that wisp of smoke (I think?) has caught my eye every time you've posted that cover, so let's get it off your list :) Hope the story is as appealing as the cover would indicate!

[Barb]

My next five

[Marla]

Barb, I pick because I just love the bright cover.

I didn't realize that you could request another book before reading your book. So here I am...

My next 5:

[Barb]

Thanks, Marla, I'm looking forward to reading that one, but it may be a bit before I get to it :)

[Connie N.]

Marla, I'm going to pick for you because that hot pink corner and flash of lightning caught my eye.

These next five are from my cartoony cover collection:

[Connie N.]

I finished my book from Post #665:

The Wicked Billionaire by Jackie Ashenden - 5/7/22 ♥♥♥♥


Love that blue cover!

[Jennifer]

I'm going to pick for you, Connie, because it's on my TBR as well.

I finished two pending picks for this challenge: (Good HF and centered on an incident I'd never heard of) and , 4 stars, I like his legal thrillers quite a bit.

My next five:

[Connie N.]

I finished my book from Post #655:

Dixie Divas by Virginia Brown - 5/29/22 ♥♥♥

[Connie N.]

Jennifer, knowing how fast you read, I'm wondering if these books are still on your TBR?

But I'll go for it and pick because I love the jewel-toned sunset. And the bonus is it's a "Z" author! (If you've already read this one, let me know and I'll pick again!)
