Om guys I am really in the mood for a tough bada$$ lead female!!! NA book where the girls is all confindent and the guy has to try to win her because she can have anyguy she wants.....what are your suggestions!

[Deanna]

Let me look at the NA books I've read and get back to you!

[Deanna]

Okay. I tried to think of ones that had strong female characters. I hope I'm right about them. LOL.


(first book in a duet)
(prequel before Grip, but this whole series)

(This is the first book, the second girl is actually more what you're looking for, but this series is worth it)






(second book, I recommend reading series in order)

I'm sure there are more. I just can't think of them.

[CL Reads]

[bookcover:Real Good

I hope you like it. I thought it was really funny.

[Karen]

Does anyone else struggle to actually not finish a book? I gave up on at 25% and I hated to do that but I really couldn't get into it...it bugs me when I do that and I haven't done it for like a year...but today I told myself - you have better things to read than this! It wasn't bad but I found a few of the characters unlikeable.

I have only recently let it go.....I used to worry that I had already invested time so I had to see it through...but like you said we have way better books to read...for me its writing style. If an author doesn't drag me into a world with their writing its a no go now....I usually give it 4-5 chapters..

[Deanna]

So I read the second book in that series. It was okay...but over the to crazy. I can guess why you didn't want to finish. I think that's okay.

[Karen]

It was a little crazy...and I didn't care for the humor...i think the author was trying to be funny but it came across as annoying. I really enjoy Tara Sivec's contemporary Romance Novels (the non rom-coms), but her romantic comedies are not from me. I've read her chocolate lovers series (another rom-com) and felt the same way...her humor and mine do not mesh.

When preparing for a probable ice storm with possible power outages this weekend:

-propane tank full - CHECK
-flashlights with working batteries - CHECK
-plenty of nonperishable food - CHECK

HAHAHA no not shocking at all. I hope the ice storm isn't too bad and you don't lose power. I'm such a wimp out here in California we've been getting a lot of needed rain, but I'm already tired of it. LOL

[Deanna]

I hope you stay safe and warm!

[Vega_girl]

Not at all Karen!!!Stay safe ans warm!!

[Chris]

Vega_girl wrote: "No I haven't!! I am so game for whenever!!"

Awesome!! I’ll open the thread. I could start it tonight if you’re ready?

[Chris]

Just a random comment...I'm sure most of your have already read it, but I wanted to just say I listened to , because it has an "&" sign in the title for our two month challenge. I just loved the book so much. Hazel is now on my favorite character list and I'm so glad the challenge got me to pick it out of my way too big TBR list where tons of great books get lost in. :/

[Deanna]

I loved that one, too! Hazel is awesome!

[Vega_girl]

Ok I will definitely have to read that one also!!

[Vega_girl]

I need help!! I have had 2 authors send my a mobi file of theor books...but I can't access them??? I have always had them send to my email then from my email forward them to my kindle....but its not working...mits like my kindle email just decided to quit working! I got a new ohone and I dont know whats going on

[Deanna]

Hm... I think I've had that happen before. Do you have another email address you can forward it to and try to send it to your kindle from? See if it works from that one?
