April 2019 ~ Pick-for-Me Challenge
During the process, I think I added 5 or 6 more books to my TBR....Lisa's list was like catnip to me. It was very dang..."Hahaha it keeps happening the same with me...that´s why my list is soooo long
Ok Leslie....I am hoping that you love it as much as I did
And kinda wish I drew Renee 'cause she would be listening to Daisy Jones & The Six!
Kim wrote: "In! List has changed a little...https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...."Kim, there are only 2 books on your list that I've read. Not that I have to choose one of them, but I often like to. So, even though I am tiring of Kristen Ashley somewhat, you have my first and probably favorite KA book on your list. Mystery Man. I checked out what you've already read by her and this one is better (IMO.). So, Mystery Man it is! Enjoy! 😘

Plus, early KA and the Dream Man Series are some of her best.

Kim, don't worry about Renee, she already has the audio for DJATS from the library...I'm pretty sure she'll be reading it soon!!

(((Hugs))) Jenn! don't forget to take care of you :)
Judy, for you, The Unwanted Wife It was so touching and angsty, I'm so hoping you'll love it. I put it as 4 stars when I read it but it stuck with me years later and still makes my heart fill with emotion.

How has she not read that yet?

Hi T! You had a few of my favs on your list, it was a struggle but my pick for you is The Sweet Gum Tree
...I hope you love it ;)
Jean--it's going to be my April list. I tried to get it done last night, but I couldn't hold my eyes open and then I forgot all about it this morning. Just a sec--let me finalize it and I'll post the link.Thanks for checking with me!

Jean wrote: "Renne am I picking from your small "Pick for Me April" list???? Or your "Pick for Me" list??? Haha.....don't want to disappoint you!"Jean--I finally found 10 audiobooks that I have or can get for free or cheap:
Renee's pick-for-me
Thanks again for checking with me before you picked!
Tessa--I'll be back to pick for you in just a few minutes. Gotta get hubs supper together before he leaves for work.

Judy - YASSS!! I've wanted/needed to read this forever, but you know how it goes - too many books, blah blah blah. It's why I've started doing this challenge. Sometimes, I need the accountability to prioritize my tbr. Thanks and (obviously) I'm really excited. I'll probably start sooner than later.

awesome! I also picked this for someone else a few months ago and they loved it too :) I hope you love it! I feel the same way about my tbr and the list for this...
Renee ❤️My heroes are ordinary wrote: "Ela wrote: "YO PEEPS! ARE WE DOING A HUGE BR OF THE MISTER?"I'm in, Ela!"
I'm excited to read this one too! however, I'm hoping my library won't take too long to get it :)
Kim wrote: "Oh Judy, I hope you enjoy The Sweet Gum Tree - I really enjoyed that one!"Kim wrote: "Oh Judy, I hope you enjoy The Sweet Gum Tree - I really enjoyed that one!"
I read it already Kim, I picked it for T.! :) But I agree with you, it was awesome!
Tessa--I was going to pick Unholy Magic, but since you only gave bk #1 three stars, I'm concerned you won't enjoy #2 much more than that.So since I know you love Jane Yellowrock like I do, I'm picking
Blood of the Earth by Faith Hunter. I actually started listening to the audiobook of this (and was enjoying it), but then I ended up having one of my surgeries and forgot about it, so I still need to finish it.
From what I remember, Ricky Bo is in it a lot, so I think, where he's concerned, this series ties into the Jane Yellowrock series.
Looking forward to seeing what you think about it!
Grey wrote: "Ela, hopefully I can get it from my library (The Mister) because I want to be in too!"Grey, my library has been really good about getting ebooks lately if I put it in for a suggestion...we switched from overdrive to something else and I'm finding the selection is much better

Oh, I missed the cutoff! Never mind!
Renee my pick for you is
I just read it and LOVED it! Hope you do too!
I was going to pick Daisy Jones and the Six, but i haven't read it yet and I've seen mixed reviews.

Thanks Kim! I am hoping I love it too. I've been slump-y the last several months.
Layne \o/I pick The Fall Up by Ali Martinez for you.
The blurb is awesome. If you like (and I hope you do), I will read!
Good read ;)

Oh cool. I've been a little nervous starting that one. :) I honestly need to re-read the book before Unholy Magic. :) It's been YEARS.

Ooh, I’m anxious to read that one! Thanks, Júlia!

There's never a cutoff, Stephanie!
Grey! I'll be happy to pick for Stephanie unless you want to or have someone else to match up with her. She has some books on her list that she NEEDS to read immediately!

It's a different pace from J. Yellowrock, but it's nice to have the familiar characters. I didn't realize she'd already written 3 books in the series!

Thanks, Jean!
Since all I'm going to have time to 'read' for the next few weeks is audio books, I'm sure I'll be doing DJ&T6 too.
I just got The Nightingale from the library, so I'll be doing that next and then I'll do What the Wind Knows. Thanks again! I'm looking forward to reading it!
Lisa wrote: "Well that was a tough pick. I'm torn between three from your list, Melinda. I'm putting on my big girl panties and making a decision...and I choose:
"That looks like a great choice Lisa, my next read. I hope it’s not too sad. Things have been a bit grim in my house at the moment. But I’m sure, I will love it.
Melinda wrote: "Julia my pick for you is All My LifeI really enjoyed this book. I hope you do too."
Yay! I am excited because I really want to read this book. Glad you liked. I think it will be a beautiful book. Thank you =^.^=
Marissa wrote: "I’m in! https://www.goodreads.com/review/list..."
MARISSA! Hands down Jezebel.....
Deliver would be my next choice.

Done...
Marissa wrote: "Ela, that’s been on my TBR for ages! Looking forward to it!"I hope you enjoy as much as all of us did!!!!! Remember to read the short sequel...
