              ~ All Together Now: An August Group Challenge ~
We’re going to see if we can all pitch in and spell something.

For August let’s try the words “Hip-Hip-Hooray for a Summer with Lisa Kleypas.”

RULES: Only ONE book per person may be submitted. You may reserve your letter now, on a first come, first serve. However, you may change your mind later in the month, just let us know as soon as possible.

Read a book with a title, series name, author’s (first or last name), character (first or last name), that begin with the letter that correspond to letters of the words we have chosen. You may ignore the indefinite and definite articles (a, an, the, etc.).

Example of Spell-It-Out in Post #2 below. If you need to know, here is info on how to Add a Book or Bookcover Link.

I LOVE Barbara Metzger! She is such a comfort read for when I need a laugh. Are you a fan too? I usually don't hear too much buzz about her. My favorites are Miss Treadwell's Talent by Barbara Metzger , A Perfect Gentleman by Barbara Metzger , and The Bargain Bride by Barbara Metzger . The only other writer I've found similar to her style of farce is P. G. Wodehouse, another favorite!

I do love her stuff. I read most of it before I started posting reviews here, but her dry humor is hard to resist. I think the first one I read was Miss Lockharte's Letters.

I will have to try that one! Somehow I missed it, but it seems to be her most popular.
