June 2019 ~ Pick-for-Me Challenge
Ok T., My pick for you is
Get yourself a bottle of wine and a box of tissues before you start 😁 Hope you love it 😉
Ela, just sent friend request! I loved The Tutor by K. Larsen, enjoy Marissa! Can't wait for Hopeless, thank you!
Paula wrote: "Layne - I pick The Sea of Tranquillity for you. I loved it years ago - will it stand the test of time? Enjoy!"See, this is exactly why I love being a part of this. I have been wanting to read this book for so long & for one reason or another, it just keeps getting put off. Thanks for the pick, Paula! I’m so glad to finally be reading it!

"Cool! Though, I think I need a re-read of the last book. So many characters get confusing. I wonder if there is a wiki for the characters?
Leslie, I kid you not, I actually have two 5* amongst your pfm. I'm gonna go with the one I think you'll like the most vs what everyone loved. :D As much as I loved Binding 13, I think you'll like this more.

I totally understand. I've read the whole series and I've already forgotten a lot from the middle books. I still remember the first and last books pretty well. The first one will always be my favorite of the series!

The first one was super memorable. The second was as far as action, but all the people introduced makes it hard to keep track. I did find a wiki for the characters, though. It'll be my go to. lol

Thankfully, she doesn't introduce useless characters, just a lot in the second book due to the nature of what's going on.

Very true! I hope you enjoy the third one. I know it got mixed reviews but I loved the whole series!

Melinda wrote: "I’m in"Melinda' you had some some great choices. Many that I haven't read, but are on my tbr. It was an easy pick, though. I just read this book as my PFM last month and its one of my top favorite of 2019! If not, THE top fave.
Btw, if you enjoy audios at all, it was also good.

I need to get to this one too! I'm adding it to my list for next month 😁

It's such a good book, and I know what Leslie DOESN'T like as far as books I love, so that's why I picked NSB. So much so good, and it's stuff she likes in books!
Thank T, next one to read. There’s just too many to read and not enough time. Thankyou for choosing for me. 😊

If you're okay with a large dose of historical fiction (20th Century,) I can't recommend this one enough. Btw, sorry about my propensity to call you Jean. You'd think I didn't know how to read and my GR status was a big farce! 🤪

I hope I get you next month Leslie as I will be choosing Binding 13!

Oooh, Lynette--lucky you! No Tomorrow was SOOOO good! One of my top 3 books for 2018!
Lynette you are so lucky loved No Tomorrow one of those you wish you could read for the first time again
Ugh! I think I'm broken. I feel like everything I read takes forever to finish. ☹ Oh well, the good news is this will count in levels challenge for "color in title"Night Shifts Black
- 3*** I couldn't connect with characters so story dragged for me. 😢
I'm a little slow moving this month but I wanted to check in. I'm reading
and the first part of this book has had me in stitches! So witty, I love this diva chick - she's quick with the wit even though she's young & a little naive. Lot's of really good highlights too!" This is my first "laugh-out-loud" book of 2019. It's refreshing from the serious angsty books I've been reading so far this year.
