What's a TBR Pick-It-For-Me Challenge?

Like the name implies, those who participate in this monthly challenge will have a book selected for them by a partner. Partners will be randomly paired up. You will choose a book for your partner from their to read list (TBR), and they will choose one for you from your TBR list.

Once you have picked the book, come back to this thread and post what book you have chose for your partner. Also send a message to the person with the name of the book you have selected for them. Then when you're done with your book, come back to this thread and post your opinion so we know you have completed the challenge.

For this challenge, you need to either HAVE YOUR PROFILE SET TO PUBLIC (preferable) or make the person you're paired with your friend. I strongly advise keeping your bookshelves updated, otherwise you might end up with a recommendation for something that you've already read.

Sign up period will remain open until September 28 and you'll have until October 1 to make a selection for your partner.

Tammy,

I finished Six of Crows (Six of Crows, #1) by Leigh Bardugo and loved it! Thank you for the pick.


Tammy ~Witching Hour Reads~ (03tammy-lynn) | 1434 comments I'm glad Leigh!

Liza (lizamariereads) | 347 comments Thank you Leigh! I just picked up How to Marry a Millionaire Vampire (Love at Stake, #1) by Kerrelyn Sparks from the library so I will be reading this one!

Leigh-
I really enjoyed that book too! In my opinion, that companion series is better than the Grisha trilogy.

Sarah | 82 comments Hey Tammy,

Thank you again for all three picks! Rating them from most enjoyable to least- It would be Mind Games (Mind Games, #1) by Kiersten White , Depravity (Beastly Tales, #1) by M.J. Haag , then Darkfever (Fever, #1) by Karen Marie Moning . For "Mind Games"- the dynamics & unpredictability of the characters were really interesting. For Depravity- I really liked the author's unconventional take on B&TB & the mystery surrounding the Beast. As for "Darkfever"- it took me a while to get into the plot/ storyline... Though I enjoyed the main character's development & the author's writing style.

Hope you enjoyed your picks! Have a great week :-)

-Sarah


Tammy ~Witching Hour Reads~ (03tammy-lynn) | 1434 comments I'm glad you enjoyed your Reads Sarah, I have read Made for You by Melissa Marr which I really loved and have started The Van Alen Legacy (Blue Bloods, #4) by Melissa de la Cruz and so far I am liking it.
