Sure! lol I just have all these books that need to be read and I'm super slow. or you can ask someone super familiar with fantasy. :D

Grey, are you okay with RH then? I swear, I want your picks 7 times because you have that many books on there I think you NEED to read. :D Seriously, never read Throne of Glass? Cruel Prince? Every Wrong Reason? Promise of Fire? :D Alright, looking, what type of book do you want? CH, Bully, Bully fantasy, fantasy, mafia?Oh, Bad Boy Blues, BLEH. Just an FYI. Cute, but no angst.
Seriously, she has 7! of my 5 star books. 7!!!

Tessa! Do you know the happy dance I did when you FINALLY got picked to choose for ME! This has been a LONG time coming!!!🥰 Whatever is there is up for grabs, but in all honesty, I do plan to read Cruel Prince this month anyway, because it was my PFM last month and I didn't get around to it because I had 2 proofs and just a bunch going on, so I pushed it to this month...but anything else that is on my PFM list is fair game, so your wish is my pick this month! *Tosses glitter and does another dance!!*

He has to have another surgery next month, that will be much more in depth, so if you could keep him in your prayer..."Will do Grey...I'm so sorry you all are having to deal with all of this...prayers will for sure be coming your way...and glittery hugs! ❤️
Grey, I’m thinking of you and your boy! Sending all my love ♥️

There are so many good picks for everyone up there.....loved The Idea of You..."
Thank you Jean! I need to get this one down particularly because Tarryn will be a signing I will be attending in June!
Prayers Grey...

I'm picking Waking Olivia for you. It's O'Roark's debut and I think she did a fabulous job. It had one very unique element that I enjoyed as it developed. I hope you enjoy it.
Michele wrote: "Oh Wow! T.'s list is like catnip for me...not because I've read them all and loved them but because so many of her books are on my TBR too!! I want her to read them and report back! ;-) I'm going..."
Thank you, Michele. I needed the nudge to get this one read. When I actually own a book, I tend to bump others ahead of it, knowing it will always be there waiting for me. Those pesky library due dates are such a bother. 😄.
Melinda wrote: "I’m in"Hey Melinda! Can you post your list for me?😁😁
Grey wrote: "And thank you everyone, it was a super long day yesterday...my son is doing okay. He has to have another surgery next month, that will be much more in depth, so if you could keep him in your prayer..."Will do! I'm glad the first surgery went well. Prayers that the second will too.

I’m so sorry Grey. Praying for your son and for you 🙏🏼 ❤️

And this isn't, oh, that one was better. Nope. 6 books to choose from! Okay, but since some of those 6 will be part of the other's desire for you to read, I'm going with one of the odd ones. lol The most recent too, but that's because I know how you and I LOVE our bullies. (though, the others will be read by you eventually! Seriously, Throne of Glass?)
My pick,
The titles make me cringe, but the story DEFINITELY does not. Have fun!
Oh and add
to your TBR. It was wonderful too. :P

They made me read it too, and I'm glad they did. You won't regret it. :D

Tessa! I love Fae so I pick Rise of the Fae. Hope you enjoy it!
Donna wrote: "Tessa! I love Fae so I pick Rise of the Fae. Hope you enjoy it!"Holy crap, thank you! I think that one originally got lost in my kindle. I LOVED the first book, so again, thank you! :D
Layne wrote: "Donna, for you I choose 
It’s one that has really stuck with me!"Oh, thank you love! It's KU too!

Hi Leslie! Ok, I have gone through your list and I think April's winner is...
I read the excerpt and the word that popped into my mind was "longing". I just have a feeling this is going to be a good one. ENJOY!
