Looks intriguing! But you know me and Romance....
Is it nicely character driven?

Karen, Mmmm, Don't think it would be up your alley. Very romance driven, ex servicemen finding their HEA in a small mountain town. The town itself becomes a character but it is what I call comfort romance, it's like reading the equivalent of a big warm hug. There is always a good story but if you're not primarily a romance reader it probably wouldn't work for you.
And Sass, when I reading the bit when Nevada had to kiss Rogen to break his trance when he was destroying the town all I could think was "I'll have what she's having". Swoon!
I've never tried Virgin River. I was afraid of it being too syrupy. A lot of my GR friends have enjoyed them though. I may try to get one on overdrive from the library.And I honestly don't think that the Gordons (Ilona Andrews) can write anything bad. I really have enjoyed everything I've read from them.
Thanks Lisa, I'll leave them for you to enjoy then :)Sass- they are on overdrive here so hopefully you can find it too
I agree about the Gordons. Great duo! I still need to read book 8 of Kate Daniels. Maybe I'll bite the bullet with an audible credit next month
Just checking where we are up to and we still have one reverse to cover. Does anyone have anything on the boil?And also, Lisa, just wanted to make sure you are still ok for Innocent in Death (green 5 duplicate). If not, I'll go searching for something.
I can cover reverse with Fuel for Fire-lisa has read it, it’ll be the weekend before i can get reading it though

Do we still need me to do a Reverse? I didn't see it on the spreadsheet, but maybe I overlooked it. I have a few going now, one can definitely cover a Skip and one can cover a 2 or they can both be used to cover Skips. Let me know, I am flexible and can change what I'm reading, just wasn't sure if I overlooked something or not. Thanks

I’ve been moving some things around on the spreadsheet as we had about five 5s at the end there! the reverse is now covered. But I may have to move things again to fit for those last cards. So end result is read what you like and I’ll shuffle things around as we go ;)
