And because I haven't a clue, I will totally let Tessa pick my book for me. I've been eyeing The Peer and The Puppet for a while now...
Here's the pretty....
The book that was chosen from all of our suggestions and plucked from the magical randomizer for her to read is...

From Tessa's All Time Favorite's List:
Michele picked
Lisa picked
Nay picked
Jenn picked
Jean picked
Leslie picked
with a little bit of help... LOL!
Paula picked
Ela picked
Tessa cheated and picked
for Grey because she was a slacker and didn't pick fast enough *giggle*

I just finished a BLEH book so after my cleanser, I'll get into Insidious. And yes... Peer and the Puppet for slow pokes! :P
This was a 4.5 star read for me. Porter Reese gets 5 stars for sure. He is the perfect man. Yep, I said it. Perfect!!! I will be back for the 2nd book, but I don't think I can do it right away. This one made me physically hurt. It is my first Aly Martinez, and I am definitely going to be checking out more of her stuff, cuz this woman does angst well!!!
Do you know what I hate??? Book amnesia!! (It's totally a thing)I see comments from you guys and I'm all like "oooh, that book sounds good" and I look and I've already read them but remember NOTHING!!
Lisa, I just did this with Darkest Sunrise. Ugh!
At least Goodreads remembers that I've already read it.

It is a thing! You know how many books it says I loved and I'm like, um... I don't remember it? :D

It is angsty! Gah, but the second one, while angsty... Gah, so good. However, TAKE A BREAK :D And he is swoon worthy, isn't he? I'll eventually get the next one since it is in the same world but a total stand alone, and supposedly a lot less angst.
I totally have book amnesia too!!! LOL!Lisa, I can't believe that was your first Aly Martinez book! You definitely have to read book 2 and her others. Great author!
I'm at 92% of Keeping 13......it took me so LONG to read this book, but I love it (more than the first book) and will definitely be finishing tonight!
I tried but had to DNF Insidious. It was going to a place that usually ends up with me feeling utterly horrible afterward. :( But, one more off my TBR.

Really??? Hmm. Okay then. *Shrug* one off the TBR works too. Sorry, Tessa. (Hugs)

Wait...what? You DNF'd Insidious? Like Aleatha Romig's Insidious? Without getting to the ending? I just don't even know what to say. The ending is EVERYTHING!!! Okay, deep breaths, Lisa!

It gave me the same uck that I feel when reading about serial killers, even if she wasn't. *shrugs* I just felt that crappy feeling coming.
Grey wrote: "the Peer and the Puppet got 4 stars from me! Thank you!!!"*squee!* I was hoping you'd like it. It felt like Fear Me without all the physical stuff.
Lisa wrote: "Wait...what? You DNF'd Insidious? Like Aleatha Romig's Insidious? Without getting to the ending? I just don't even know what to say. The ending is EVERYTHING!!! Okay, deep breaths, Lisa!"I'll cheat and read the end really quick then. :)

Jean wrote: "I'm feeling like I need to read Insidious now....."It's got one of those endings that's quite the mindf*&^ . Gotta love those!!!
Jean wrote: "Yes, i do love those kind of endings Lisa!"I totally hate them! I dont like leaving a book or movie with unanswered questions. This is why I have such a hard time with psyche thrillers. 🙁
My endings need to wrapped up tight in a big beautiful bow.
I am having a hard time with ebooks lately...I'm finding audiobooks so much easier. Especially this time of year when everything so busy. Unfortunately I cant get
on audio. Well, I can but Im not paying $7.49 for it. Grrrr Reading it has been super slow going. At 39%
