Do you want your old job back now lol
Thank you!And ha! No worries, I made a whole lot more mistakes!
Oh Kooloo, you're gonna hate me. Maybe ban me from this challenge forever. :-(I must have given you the wrong link. It goes to my read shelf.
My Pick for Me shelf is my Owned to Read one.

Hey Ela!!! Come back to us!!!Re: The Life of Anna--I'm familiar with this because I dealt with it earlier this week because it was a duplicate on my shelves. It was originally titled "The Life of Anna, Part 1" but was changed to "Enslaved--The Life of Anna, Part 1". So it's the same book, just an old cover.
Thanks for clarifying that Nay.
Leslie--this is a no-brainer for me. This is one of my top reads of 2016:
I mentioned in my review that the angst in this book brought back the same type of tummy twisting feelings I had when I read Thoughtless (although the stories are very different), so I had to verify that you were ok with that type of angst before I picked this for you! lol.
I get Grey again! Grey, did you ever read One True Loves which I picked for you last month?My pick for you this month is:
Mod
I know you've had a tough month! Hang in there!
lol I got Jean again. :) No question of which now.
Yay Tessa! I'm excited to read this one!

Ok Paula, I pick for you Fishers Light
I have not read it, but have heard good things and it sounds like your cuppa! 😁
Nay, your pick for me sounds perfect. Unless someone dies or it doesnt have HEA, then I will promptly remove from TBR and have you chose something else. 😉
Grey wrote: "Fabi, my pick for you, is Kill Game by Cordelia Kingsbridge... I'll have you know, I waffled like crazy though, 😂. I hope you love it!!"Thank you Grey! I'm looking forward to it.

I LOVED FISHER'S LIGHT!! YOU MUST READ THE SHORT NOVELLA (WORTH THE TRIP) AFTER TO GET THE FULL STORY AND FEEL! Hope you love it Paula!

"Ooh thanks Paula. I've got a couple of new shiny HRs I'm reading, but then will get started on this. I do like a good rock star romance. Now. What to pick for Ela....... *rubs hands together*
Helllooooo Ela. Are you around????? If you are my sweet, here is my pick for you.Dead Heat
It's been on your tbr for quite a while apparently! And it'll get you in the zone, cos there's a new one in the series due out in a FEW DAYS!! Burn Bright
Enjoy Dead Heat!
Thank you Kooloo for setting us up. I love this fun challenge (even though I don't always get my books read LOL).

I am being so difficult this month. I'm going to end up on the naughty list.
Grey, I was looking forward to it until I remembered this is a cliffhanger series with the last book coming out in July. I've been trying to hold off at least till April so I don't get ragey over the cliffies and actually remember the story when the last book comes out.
*squeeky voice* wanna pick another for me?
If not, it's ok, I'll just wait until the end of March to tackle it. That'll be close enough.
TESSA!!!!!I SOOOO WANT TO PICK MY FAV ZOMB/APOC SERIES FOR YOU
but if it's too dark for you right now - I under stand and will pick another... BUT let me just say this the book does have Zombs but it's really all about relationships and it is beautifully writen
JUST LOVED LOVED LOVED THIS SERIES!!!
Oh that's not dark. In my head, it's PNR/ Urban fantasy which is where my mood has been! Awesome!!! :D Thank you. Now I'll actually read it. It's not like the second book, is it? I CRIED with that one.

Oooh, thanks, Melinda! I'm going to start on it as soon as I finish the rest of the Of Love and Madness series.
Mod
*tosses all the glitter**sets off multiple confetti cannons*
*dances around like a crazy person*
NAY IS GONNA READ
Can I please, please look over your shoulder??? Will you give me multiple updates??
Of course, Leslie! As soon as I finish getting gutted by Karen Cimms, I'm going to start it. Hopefully tonight. I'll post when I do and keep you updated!
Nay, I can barely contain my excitement. I think you will love it cuz you love the heart breaky stuff. I want to relive it through you.
I've been wanting to read it ever since I first saw the cover, but I was in my slump and I didn't want to take a chance on my personal feelings diminishing my rating of a potentially wonderful book.Now that I'm back in the groove, I can't wait to read it! If this Of Love and Madness series wasn't SO good, I would've come back to this last book. All 3 of these books are awesome and I HIGHLY recommend them for angst lovers. They are about a rock star and his home life, but they focus less on the actual rocker part of his life and more about how his personality and his need to be in the music business affect his loved ones. It's as much (if not more) about the heroine as it is about the hero.
Mod
. So sorry it took me so long to get back here to post, today has been A. DAY.
Nay babe I just left you a msg on Maryse's bloggy I'm thinking I'll join you for this one let me know when you get started!
