Thanks Paula! Why are you all scaring me with your comments?!?
Jean - I think the book is like Marmite - you either love it or hate it!
Jean wrote: "Thanks Paula! Why are you all scaring me with your comments?!?"Don't be scared! It's a great book! But Ela hates it as you know...so I'm messing with Paula...I really did like it though and haven't read the sequel yet...I may wait to see it you want to read it with me when you finish this one...don't be afraid!
Paula wrote: "Jean - I think the book is like Marmite - you either love it or hate it!"Yep
Lol! I almost picked this for my "red cover", but decided on Sweet Jayne instead (which is a mindf%$k so far)....... it's fate!

Anyone else feel like Paula just put herself up as “tribute” in The Hunger Games” with this book choice? However, you know I loved it too! So, I definitely appreciate the strategy... May the odds be ever in your favor Paula 😉
Bwahahaha, *dying*

Grey wrote: "Where *is* Ela, anyway???"I was wondering the same thing...I would have thought all this "C" book commentary would have brought her out...

Lisa wrote: "Jan, I pick for you 
. I have heard so many good things about it, and it's on my short list to read!!! I actually have it in Audible and started it, but got sidetr..."Thank you Lisa. This only recently became available on kindle Australia, even though it's been out everywhere else for ages. So I've just bought it recently, due to all the hype, and the blurb sounds good. It was high on my tbr, so thanks for prompting me to get started.
I finished
and rated it 4 stars. I really enjoyed it. A couple things didn't work for me, but it had everything I enjoy - a damaged hero, angst, impossible situations, and a twist that I didn't even suspect (and should have!!) Thank you for my pick this month!!!
JEN! Sorry to be late but here's my pick for you Playing with Monsters (Playing with Monsters, #1)

Go for it, Lisa, you were first to jump in!
Just finished Keep Her Safe. I gave it 3 .5 stars. I did like it. It was just slow at times and very long. I started piecing everything together and wasn't surprised at the ending. Tucker is a very good storyteller with attention to details Would have liked an epilogue . I need answers!! LOL
WooohoooooooooooooooooooooooooJulia, I choose for you
because EVERYONE should read that book. Here's a box of Kleenex, a blankie, a bottle of wine, and you can borrow my stuffed manatee to hug...but if you get snot on him, you're in trouble!!
