February 2019 ~ Pick for Me Challenge
In. But i want to read this shelf first. Which at this rate will take us almost 2 years.
Am I a complete nerd because I've already scoured all your lists and know what I will pick?? 🤓Except Tessa, she's a toughy for me. Hope I get Jenn or Michele, they have some of my faves!! 🤞
I love Leslie’s enthusiasm too and my 🤯because Michele you have 6 books on yours that I 5* and one that I 4* now I’m going to 👀 at Leslie’s 😁
Leslie you have 2 on yours that I 5* and one that I 3*-I see you have a Winter Renshaw book on there. I’m currently reading my first book by this author
and I’m really liking it so far.

lol In some ways we are definitely book opposites. :)
I'm in. I'm getting my mojo back with a string of 5 star reads.... so PICK FOR ME.
Someone tell me how to post the link to my shelf.
Michelle, are you on your phone or computer?
I just open my shelf and copy then paste the address bar.
Ok, I also want Michelle or Kim too! 😉
I'm on a phone. Can't copy & paste. Grumble grumble. Dumb app.
I want Jen... did you see her list??? GIRL... you are missing out!!!
Ditto for Kim.... cackling... so many goodies on her list....
In - although haven’t done this months yet
I'm in! I'm still working on re-populating my list with challenge books, but here's what I have so far.link: Renee's pick-for-me
I'm in. Hopefully I can do this. I may be busy this month. On holidays for a month. Yay
I think I'm out for the time being, I can't even finish last months challenges and I'm so confused what challenge is what.

Yay Grey-I love this challenge as two months straight both books that have been picked for me have been 5 stars:-) can't wait to see whose picking for me as some of you were so excited by my list so I am curious as to what's going to be picked

Marissa has so many books on her PFM shelf that I have 5 starred! I'm dying here! Ugh! I'm just jumping in and picking TJR - - One True Loves it is!! I hope you enjoy!! She's one of my favorite authors!!
Tessa did you just dig that out of my larger tbr?? 🤣😂
Kind of a big problem with that book. Or think there still is. That is/was the only one. It cane out a few years ago too. Thats why I've never finished it. I believe each book is about individual couples but with bigger arcs that are to go through the whole series. Like Black Dagger series.

Come one, come all! You know you wanna...
1. Create a new shelf, or update the existing shelf on your Goodreads profile, that includes approximately 20 books that you would like to have someone else use to pick a book for you to read. Label it "Pick For Me." Only books from this designated shelf will be selected for this challenge, (no matter how badly some of us want to pick something else...hint hint, Nay, Robin...*giggle*)!
2. Post in this thread that you want to participate this month. If you don't post here, I don't know you want in.
3. Provide the link to your Pick For Me shelf, (this will make it a bit easier for all parties involved... unless you all really *want* to read The Devil. *a new month, a new pick from me!*)
4. On the February 1st, someone...the hand of fate, maybe, will use the randomizer to pair up everyone. (Or worst case scenario, Grey will pick for everyone, and you *know* what that means, *shifty eyes*)
5. Friend your partner who is picking for you or set your profile to public or your partner will not be able to access your shelf.
6. Post your selection for your partner in this thread.
7. Come back after finishing the book selected for you by your partner (even if it's after the month has ended) and let everybody know what you think about it, or at least that you've finished...or DNF'd it (another book off your list is always a win in our book!)
**The sign up period will remain open until pairs are posted on February 1st and you'll have until February 4th to select a book for your partner or one of these other pick-happy little moppets will jump in and do it for you.**
