Finished initial goal of 30 and still have many series titles to read, so please change my goal to 90. Thanks for this challenge!
Progress: 30/90 (Change of goal)"

Updated way to go!


@Blagica
I'm still listed as 0/30 on the participant list. Looks like you may have applied my last goal and progress update (which was 38/90 at the time) to @Tea instead of me. Didn't notice until after I posted the update above that I'm now 52/90. Oops! 😊

message 681: by Megan (new)

Megan (lahairoi) | 7470 comments Just finished the Belle Meade Plantation trilogy by Tamera Alexander - To Wager Her Heart by Tamera Alexander. This was one of Alexander's better books. I really appreciate that she tackled real Southern issues, like racism and sexism, within the context of a sweet love story. And the Christian message isn't shoved into the story but is woven throughout. Worth reading! 4 stars
