[Jennifer]

And oh yay, connie -- it's a series first set in a small town which I need for another challenge!!! I'm picking for you. Let's see if you can read it without it experiencing drool damage!

My next five:

[Barb]

OK Jennifer, you convinced me to give this one a shot :) For you, I choose The Secret, Book and Scone Society, a book whose cover caught my eye when it first came out :)

My five:

[Barb]

So in skimming through the previous posts in this thread, it looks like you don't have to finish the book someone picks for you before you can jump in and pick again? Just want to be sure I'm playing by the same rules as everyone else, thanks :)

Great, thanks, and thanks for the book pick too. I almost hesitate to say it, but I have an ARC of that one that I need to read and review before the end of the month :)

[Jennifer]

There she goes again...

[Barb]

Sorry? :D

[Rina]

Jennifer wrote: "My next five: "

I love the covers of the Bewitched by Chocolate series (and the books are pretty good too), so I pick

for you.

My five:

[Jennifer]

Rina: I'm picking for you because I love that color, and I read it a few months ago and it was a fun read.

Starting tonight!

My next five:

[Barb]

I finished the book chosen by Jennifer quite some time ago :)

Ain't She a Peach? (Southern Eclectic #2), by Molly Harper, finished 5/23 ★★★.5



Jennifer, for you I choose ...

[Barb]

My next five books:

[Jennifer]

I finished one!


Barb, for you i pick . Something about that red with the white against it.

My next five:

[Barb]

Well that's good timing, Jennifer. I plan to start the audio of that book tomorrow :)

[Barb]

Finished my latest pick. It dragged a bit in the middle, but overall it was every bit as compelling as the first in the series. Ended on a bit of a cliffhanger, though, and I'm not a fan of cliffhangers.

Wayward (Wayward Pines #2), by Blake Crouch, finished 5/30 ★★★★.5



My next five books (some were on my previous list):

Woman! You going to pick for me or leave a reader hanging? :-)

[Barb]

Ooops, sorry! Hmmm.... the colors in this one jumped out at me, so for you, I choose

The colors get me too!

[Connie N.]

I finished finished a book from a while ago:

One Less Problem Without You by Beth Harbison - 6/3/18 ♥♥♥

[Jennifer]

Congrats, Connie! :-)

[Connie N.]

Barb, I'll pick because that looks very peaceful and someplace I'd rather be than sitting here at the office!

I'll stick with the blue theme with my next 5:

[Barb]

Thanks, Connie :)

[Jennifer]

I just finished one of my earlier picks -- -- good beginning to a series and a quick read, not to mention the covers are gorgeous!

Connie, i pick for you because that bright blue is a knockout!

My next five:

[Connie N.]

Thanks for the pick, Jennifer. (And lucky, too, because I've since read 2 of my 5 choices). I'd better not pick any more right now--I have 3 picks already assigned to read for this challenge. I'll get caught up soon...

[Barb]

Finally finished my book chosen by Connie:

Cottage by the Sea, by Debbie Macomber, finished 7/7 ★★★★

[Barb]

From Jennifer's choices, I'll choose .... Tiny Little Thing, because the dress caught my eye :)

And my next five possibilities are:

[Jennifer]

Thanks barb -- i'm about done with one of my other picks for this challenge so I should be back to pick for you in a day or two!

[JoAnne]

I just read Red Lily. It's the 3rd in a trilogy and I think the best one of the 3!

I was already leaning that way for barb anyway because I'm quilting this weekend and some of my fabric looks like that cover!

OK barb, it is....

Book I'm about to finish: .

My next five

[Barb]

Thanks, ladies :)

Can I make a recommendation without requesting *another choice, or do I need to wait till I'm ready to have another book chosen for me?

[Jennifer]

Recommend any time you want. I definitely have a TBR of choices from this challenge stacked up. I read them but I pick faster!!!

[Barb]

Good to know, thanks :)

[Connie N.]

How would that work? Wouldn't you need to add 5 more possibilities whenever you choose for someone else to keep the game moving?

[Jennifer]

Yep. But you don’t have to have finished your last pick to get your next one selected.

[Hannah]

I’m going to have to jump in on this one!
For Jennifer I choose

Here are some books I need for upcoming challenges:



EDITED LIST: (also removed Innkeeper's Daughter since I started it last night)

[[deleted user]]

I finished FINALLY my book:



don't know why I've waited for so long, I really enjoyed it

[Barb]

I finished the book Jennifer chose for me:

Red Lily (In the Garden #3), by Nora Roberts, finished 7/28 ★★★.5

[Barb]

Hannah, for you I choose ... Where the Fire Falls



These are all books I "need" to read soon for various challenges:

[Hannah]

Oh, I just finished reading that one last night and didn't make it over to update my post! It was very good.

How do we handle this? Do you pick from the other four or do we count it as done and take the next pick?

[Jennifer]

I think Barb should pick for you again if she would like. Go ahead and add a fifth book to swap out for the one you read. And I’ve done that too!!

[Hannah]

Okay! I have edited my post.

[Barb]

OK, looking at your revised choices, Hannah ... the cover that jumped out at me was:

[Barb]

I just realized we're supposed to post five covers, not just three. Ooops! I'll edit my post above and add two more books.

[Hannah]

Thanks! I'm very much in love with that cover. :)

[Jennifer]

Barb, i pick for you!

My next five

[Barb]

Oh yay, thanks :) I've been looking for an excuse to read that soon, now I have it -- after I read the two other ARCs that will be released before it!

I read a book by this author last week and liked it!

[Jennifer]

Just finished an old pick for this challenge: . Good book -- 4 stars!

[Barb]

Would it surprise you to learn that I have that in Mt. TBR as well? :D

Not at all. I think of you as my reading alter ego. :) :) :)
