Hi Elke, here are your picks! I hope they are worth the wait - it was really hard to narrow it down! There is some duplication of authors between the new and TBR books, but after I did the new picks, I just had to go with the ones on your shelf too. 😊

Red:
NEW: Alex by Sawyer Bennett - For the hockey lover!
TBR: Ashes of Midnight by Lara Adrian - Such a good series!

Orange:
NEW: Blaze of Memory by Nalini Singh - Lots of good books left in this series, maybe you just need a push to get back to them!
TBR: A Little Big Rock by Lauren Blakely - I have this on my list too!

Yellow:
NEW: Getting Schooled by Emma Chase - Loved this one!
TBR: Magic Triumphs by Ilona Andrews - Not this far in the series yet, but looks like you love them!

Blue:
NEW: The One Real Thing by Samantha Young - Sweet story!
TBR: Hot Winter Nights by Jill Shalvis - Can't wait to read this one, holding off till a little closer to the holidays though!

Green:
NEW: Animal Magnetism by Jill Shalvis - I was surprised you hadn't read this series yet!
TBR: Total Surrender by Rebecca Zanetti - So good!

Purple:

Pink:
NEW: Virgin River by Robyn Carr - This series is like comfort food for me, not gourmet or fancy, but always leaves me smiling!

Of the ones I've read, I mostly listened to the audio and would definitely recommend the narrators if you wanted to go that route. Happy Reading!

Thanks Ashley! I love the picks, and can’t wait to get started! :)

[Adi Rocks Socks]

Hi Nancy H,

Since I haven’t receive a reply to the message I sent you, I’ve gone ahead and made my picks — I hope you don’t mind. It’s just that I’ll be traveling for the next two days, and will have sketchy internet.

1. Red
A. Consequences — New, features a vengeful character. I enjoyed this book.
B. Oldest Living Confederate Widow Tells All — TBR, red cover.

2. Orange
A. Bright Side — New, has an orange cover. Haven’t read it, but it comes highly recommend.
B. My Name is Red — TBR, has orange on the cover — I’ve been meaning to read this one for a while now.

3. Yellow
A. Five Little Pigs — New, yellow cover + has an artist. One of my favourite Poirot books. I think mystery is your favourite genre, so I think you’ll like it.
B. North of Havana — TBR, yellow cover

4. Blue
A. Frederica — New, blue on cover. I haven’t read it, but it’s my mum’s favourite.
B. The Songcatcher — TBR, water on the cover.

5. Green
A. Stalking Jack the Ripper — New, Green cover + doctor character. It’s an entertaining book, and is YA, has historical romance, and protoganists who investigate into a serial killer.
B. The Patron Saint of Liars — TBR, green cover

6. Purple
A. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo — New, has a rich benefactor. Plus it’s has mystery, romance and a lot more, and is right up your alley!
B. Black Rainbow — TBR, purple cover

7. Pink
A. A Girl Like That — New, pink on cover. You’ve given Hosseini’s A Thousand Splendid Suns 5 stars, and this book tugs on similar heartstrings according to the friend who recommended it to me. (I love A Thousand Splendid Suns too!)
B. Hollywood Wives — TBR, pink on cover. Who can resist a good Jackie Collins novel? :)

8. Magenta
A. A Conspiracy in Belgravia — New, 2nd in a series. You’d said in your review of the first book that you’d like to read the 2nd one when it released. It released last year, and I think you’ll like it. :)
B. Who Let That Killer in the House? — TBR, more than one colour on cover.

That’s it! I tried to include books which have mysterious elements and have investigative themes in my new recs. I hope you find something you like.

Happy reading!

Cheers,
Ad

Hi Ad,
These look great! I'm sorry I didn't get back to you sooner - I got really busy right after I finished the picks I did and just now got back on here. I read absolutely everything, so whatever you pick is good and I am sure I will find good stuff for the month of October! I did already read the first two in the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo series, so will substitute the third one since we are allowed to read the one in the series we are on, if that makes sense. The rest of these look great and I am probably going to read quite a few of them, and if I don't get all of them done in October, they will definitely be read at some point.
Thank you!! Happy reading to you, as well!
