Michele (guilliem) | 2131 comments I choose When August Ends by Penelope Ward for Lisa. I hope you like it!!

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 dangerous....

Marissa (marissadonofrio) | 169 comments Jean, I pick One by Jewel E Ann for you! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!


message 54: by Kim (new)

Kim Carter | 140 comments Ok Leslie....I am hoping that you love it as much as I did The Year We Fell Down (The Ivy Years, #1) by Sarina Bowen


And kinda wish I drew Renee 'cause she would be listening to Daisy Jones & The Six!

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!!

message 65: by Tessa (new)

Tessa | 1761 comments 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.

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 The Sweet Gum Tree by Katherine Allred ...I hope you love it ;)


message 68: by Nay (new)

Nay (4ukcats) 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!

Thanks again for checking with me before you picked!

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...

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!"

I read it already Kim, I picked it for T.! :) But I agree with you, it was awesome!


message 78: by Nay (new)

Nay (4ukcats) 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 (Soulwood, #1) by Faith Hunter 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, 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

So happy I get to pick for you. I am choosing one of my all time faves.

It Ends With Us It Ends with Us by Colleen Hoover


message 84: by Jean (new)

Jean | 1658 comments Renee my pick for you is What the Wind Knows by Amy Harmon

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.

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.

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!

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.
