Ela | 4291 comments Don't worry Fabi, although it doesn't look as pretty as yours I put the links in the first post.

Tessa | 1761 comments Oooh, I got Bev! That's easy. I haven't read any of them and none are on my TBR list, so she's going to be my guinea pig.


message 104: by Tessa (new)

Tessa | 1761 comments Bev, the Lotus Palace by Jeannie Lin! That one looks really intriguing.


message 105: by [deleted user] (new)

I have Jan. It was a bit of a debate. Kleypas' was sweet and fun. I loved Iced, but pfft to the rest of the series. Mercy is one of my favorite heroines.

But I am going with Sawbones for Jan. I had some quibbles with but still plan to read the next. Im curious as to another's opinion.


message 106: by [deleted user] (new)

Yay, Tessa. Ive bought a couple of during sales, those Harlequin ones that pop up, based on reviews. People really like her. So the push i need to actually read her.

Someone in our group mentioned buying a series or author based on recs & big sales then learning they dont care for them. Can totally relate....I do that.

message 133: by Anna (new)

Anna Penwick  (annapenwick) | 166 comments Amy- Since you like dark books that tear your heart out... my pick for you is Enslaved (The Life of Anna, #1) by Marissa Honeycutt It looks too dark for me.


message 134: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michellesantiago) | 299 comments Woohoo! Fake Fiancée is a KU book.


message 135: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (michellesantiago) | 299 comments OMG - Ela has Bad Things & Last Hour of Gann on her list! And Patricia Briggs. Good luck picking for her.

Grey | 2385 comments Mod
Ok, this was actually much harder than I originally thought it was going to be. I waffled back and forth between 2 books, but after looking at Ela's favorites list... I had to go with my initial instinct. I choose...

Playing with Monsters (Playing with Monsters, #1) by Amelia Hutchins Playing With Monsters by Amelia Hutchins, yay!! Enjoy, Ela!

Bwahahah, no seriously, bev. I came pretty close to choosing another book for her... because I'm nervous. You know how you get when it's your book... you know, *your* book.... what if she hates it... I'll feel sad... LOL! I know, I'm a weirdo!


message 140: by Jean (new)

Jean | 1658 comments I love everyone's picks! This is so exciting! Leslie, I have had AoP for years! Thank you for making me finally read it!


message 141: by Jean (new)

Jean | 1658 comments Anna, i can't believed you picked Enslaved for Amy! Good luck Amy! I did read it and the entire series..... nothing like I've ever read.


message 142: by Tessa (new)

Tessa | 1761 comments Ooooh, comedy! Thank you Michelle! That one looks really good. :D

Grey, good choice. lol You all know that I LOVED Playing with Monsters. It's nice and dark.


message 143: by Jan (new)

Jan (jan130) bev, I love your pick for me. I've wanted an excuse to read Sawbones for ages! Thank you :)

Anna, I love your list. So many goodies to choose from. For you, I pick a very old fav of mine that I hope you love: Arabella Arabella by Georgette Heyer . I first read this book many moons ago when I was a mere teenager, but I still LOVE it. Hope you do too.

Hey, you know I HAD to pick a HR when there was one on your list Anna. Mwahahah.

Good choice Jan. I stole Grey's idea and combined a few from Leslie's 5 star challenge and my pick for me shelf. Arabella was the book I chose from your five star ratings. I have a ton of Georgette Heyer's books on my shelf from sales that I need to read.

I've only read one book on Amy's shelf and I decided not to pick it since it was YA. I remember all the freaking out about Life of Anna series. Plus the main character has my name. I don't think I'll ever read it so I will read it through Amy's updates. ;)


message 146: by Grey (new)

Grey | 2385 comments Mod
LoA was WHOA baby dark... and that's coming from *me*! I think book 2 and 3 are considerably darker than 1 though, if I'm remembering correctly.
