Hi Mary-Megan,
Here are your picks. You have a lot of good ones on your list, and I may have to add some of them to my own TBR list! I used a lot from your list but also added some of my own that I thought you might enjoy, so you have a couple of extra ones. (If you don't want that many, just ignore them.)

Easter bunny: A bit of paranormal/fantasy and very good - A Most Extraordinary Pursuit; A man on cover, includes a husband and a possible other romantic interest, and also very good - Murder at the Brightwell; couple embracing - One Night Charmer



Easter basket: YA - really good (I just finished it) - Heretics Anonymous; Outdoor theme, leaf on cover - EXCELLENT story (I read a ton of books and this is one of the very best ones I have read recently) - Harry's Trees



Egg Hunt: Character with a secret - Why Not Tonight; Brightly colored cover - Ain't She a Peach? (I have this on my soon-to-be-read list, so if you want to do a Buddy Read on this one, let me know.)



Marshmallow Peeps: Over 1,000 ratings on GR, 13,474 to be exact - The Soldier's Wife; Has some yellow on the cover, and involves a sort of employer/employee romance - Misadventures with a Manny



Family dinner: Siblings - Lighthouse Bay; funny ( I loved this one and laughed out loud many times) - Furiously Happy: A Funny Book About Horrible Things; food, specifically a 'chocolate whisperer'... with two possible love interests...in addition to chocolate, lol - Criminal Confections



Church: Wealthy - Crazy Rich Asians; Royalty and wealth - A Princess in Theory; Building on cover - Meet Me In Scotland




Easter bonnet: Woman in a dress and an excellent story (one of my all-time favorite series) - A Curious Beginning; Character works in movie industry - The Princess Diarist; Pastel colors on cover, and another great story - The Little Café in Copenhagen



Lamb: Lots of white on cover - Sugar Pine Trail; Western (really good) - Baby Love; Small town/plantation in the South and the tea is sweet - Sex, Lies & Sweet Tea (also really good!)



Happy reading!

Hi Suzanne!
Yesterday got away from me and I only just finished my picks last night! We had a lot of books in common - unfortunately you'd read most of them already! LOL And I'm absolutely floored by how many books you've already read! Hope you find something good here!
The Easter Bunny:
🐰 TBR
(fantasy, man on cover) And I've been planning to read this one too!
🐰NEW
(couple embracing, children) Great book!

An Easter Basket:
🍫 TBR
(standalone and outdoor scene) Such a wonderful read, you must!
🍫 TBR/NEW
(YA, scene on cover) Audrey Rose (the MC) might be a bit immature, but the story itself is a fascinating take on the very famously unsolved serial murders. I’ve read the series so far and the second book is my favorite. They’re dark and mysterious, but interesting, as is the chemistry between the MCs.

Egg Hunt:
🌼 TBR
(secret, bright colors, series)
🌼 TBR
(series, brightly colored cover) Fascinating story! Not sure why I haven’t continued with the series…

Marshmallow Peeps:
🐤 TBR
(group of friends, enemies-to-lovers, blue/pink/yellow cover)
🐤 TBR
(over 1,000 ratings, friend-to-lover and blue cover) Saw this on your TBR shelf and thought to encourage you to read it. I really enjoyed it, much better than the movie! (Don’t see the movie first if you haven’t! And if you have seen the movie, forget it when you read this!)

Family dinner:
🍞 NEW/TBR
(family, funny, dark cover) It was actually on your TBR since 2012 and I enjoyed most all of this series so thought I’d bump it up on your list!
🍞 NEW
(food industry, funny, family) Yep, I recommend this one every time food is involved. Such a sweet story!

Church:
⛪TBR
(TBR list for long time, wealthy character) And on my TBR now too!
⛪ NEW
(historical, wealthy/royalty, building sort of on cover) One of my favorites for a number of reasons. The history, the characters, the well-written story and the series is fab!

Easter Bonnet:
👒TBR
(movie industry, 4.0 or higher, pastel colors)
👒 TBR
(satisfies all!) I’m reading this one this month as well. Care to buddy read?

Lamb:
🐑 TBR
(sweet character, small town, white cover)
🐑 TBR/NEW
(Small town, animals in story, white on cover) A fascinating YA, loosely related to the Beauty and the Beast story.
Happy Reading!

Sorry, I thought most of them were first in series! I just looked and messed up The Ivy Year series - I had The Year We Fell Down on my list, but my brain typed The Year We Hid Away... 🤦🏻‍♀️ And for the Immortals After Dark books, the first, The Warlord Wants Forever, is more a prequel and was written after A Hunger Like No Other. It messes me up all the time! 🤷🏻‍♀️ Sorry about that!

[MountainKat, Moderator]

I'm looking for hosts for the PIFM for the next several months! It's really a lot of fun and you get to let your creative light shine! Shoot me a message if you are interested! 😊

I'm sorry Jamie but sign ups ended a week ago. Unless someone is willing to do picks for you, you're too late. I unfortunately cannot do them due to other obligations today. Also, the list you post should be books you want to read. It looks like you just read the books on the list. Maybe just wait for next month - sign ups usually start around the 20th.

On to #2!

[Jamie]

Romanticbookworm

The Easter Bunny:
Storm - Carian Cole
I absolutely loved this story. It was so sweet and sad. This was the first time I've read anything from this author.
I definitely recommend this series.
And at the end of the book I was totally gutted with what happened to Storm's cousin Vandel.
Thank goodness I don't have to be anxious waiting for his book it's the next one.
Guess what I'm going to read next? Yep I'm reading Vandel's and I'm probably going to bawl my eyes out😭😭😭😭

Lamb:
Like Dragonflies - K. Webster
Just finished this book, And OMG It was such a Wonderful, Sad, Happy, Intense and Angry book... I loved every bit of the journey this book took me on. I recommend it 💯% It is a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Read

Church:
Surprise Delivery - R.R. Banks
I was pleasantly surprised with this book, I was pulled in from the very first page. Duncan was a genuine and perfect man. Lexi on the other hand I just wanted to punch her in the throat.

Easter Bonnet:
Mr Spencer - T.L. Swan This is the first time I've read anything by this author, And I really enjoyed this story. I laughed so much reading this book. But I did feel like it need more detail about her mothers death.

[Rebecca]

Carrie,
I have finished my first pick Every Heart a Doorway 3 Stars and I will definitely continue with the series.

[Nancy H]

Hi Sarah,
I have finished my first pick and it was really good: Flirting with Disaster


I have started four more from the Pick list but have a couple of 'real-life' book club ones to read, so will see how far I get. They will get read eventually, though!
