Meet & Greet Challenge Round 6 (Oct/Nov): READING

[Lizz (Beer, Books and Boos)]

Sent out some bonus picks and I will finish up when I get home from work

[Penney]

Finally finished with the bonus picks. Let me know if I missed you.

Thanks for all of the great bonus picks I've received so far! I'll make choices based on other challenges.

[LaurLa]

Finished my bonus picks. Thanks to all who sent them to me. Let me know if I missed anyone or you need re-picks.

Happy Reading!

[Shelby]

Bonus picks are all sent out. :D Let me know if I missed anyone anywhere.

[Ty]

There's still a couple hours left for picks to be due. As of right now, the only one missing is Becca from Group 2. Looks like she hasn't checked in since signing up waaaay back when. Sorry, Group 2!

[~Leslie~]

I still haven't had a chance to do my bonus picks. So sorry everyone. Event is over, but family still around and the Saints are about to play. I hope to watch the game and get them done.

Thank you to all who sent me picks - y'all are awesome!! I feel like it's raining books!

[Aarati]

Hey guys, looks like I didn't do bonus picks for people who were already in my group. Sorry about that. I'll do that tomorrow, I promise. I just have a few assignments due tomorrow and once that is done I'll do the remaining picks and re-picks for whoever asked for it!

[Lizz (Beer, Books and Boos)]

I think I sent all my bonus picks. Let me know if I missed anyone

I'm also missing Becca's pick, but thanks everyone else

[Becky]

Okay, I'm done with my bonus picks! I did a dumb thing and started out replying to those who sent me bonus picks instead of working down the list in order, so there's a high probability that I missed someone. Give me a shout if I did!

[Katie]

I'm waiting on a bonus pick from Tabs and then I'll be ready to go! :) No rush, Tabs, I've got plenty to keep me busy until you have time.

[~Leslie~]

I'm pretty sure I sent out all my bonus picks! If you sent me one and I didn't send you one back, please let me know!

And thanks for all the wonderful books to read!! My shelf overfloweth!!!

[Karla]

I'm waiting on bonus picks from Tabs and Aarati, no rush.

[Sassafrass]

We're not supposed to start reading yet right, not until tomorrow?

[MountainKat, Moderator]

Not until October Sass! You can hold out a little bit longer - I know you can!

[Lizz (Beer, Books and Boos)]

I can't wait to start reading

[Ezi]

so no Becca?

No, I just noticed someone, I can't remember who, had started already on the participant thread. So, then I was getting anxious.

I can wait til tomorrow. I'll just do work and clean off my desk so that I'll be free and clear to start. :)

I'm hoping that is what you were seeing Sassafrass. =)

[Sassafrass]

I thought it said 9/30/14 on the post, but then I may be wrong cuz I wasn't looking that hard. I just got excited that maybe we could start...lol

If you would like a bonus pick, I can do that for you. Even though we're on the same team.

what's everyone's first (read)?

[Roger - president of NBR United -]

I will be starting with Rarer Than Rubies in a couple of days have to finish a review first.

[Roger - president of NBR United -]

and yeah I would say Becca is a bust.

[Anita Reads]

I think my first one will be but I have some books I have to read before I can start.

[Lizz (Beer, Books and Boos)]

I am starting with Susan A pick Glazed Murder

[Donna]

I'm starting with When You Dare. It was a pick from multiple people.

[Becky ♡The Bookworm♡]

I'll have to go with:

Shifting Shadows: Stories from the World of Mercy Thompson

The wait has been torture! LOL!

Okay. I need to nutpunch myself hard for not even knowing this was released or even on the freaking way. ZOMG ADAM. I didn't even bother to TBR it, cuz I'm SO reading it next.

LOL! I'm really excited to read Sam's backstory! I'm hoping Ms. Briggs will tell us a lot more about Bran, too...although...she's eluded to the fact that keeping his past a bit of a mystery is what makes him so intriguing. I still think he deserves a better mate than what he has. Call me a hopeless romantic!

[Katie]

I'm starting with Open Season. I'm hoping I like it as much as Mr. Perfect.

[Becky ♡The Bookworm♡]

LOVED Mr. Perfect! It's one of my all time favs!

[Amie]

I'm starting with Darkfever.

[Dana (aNovelAllure)]

Amie wrote: "I'm starting with Darkfever."

Ooh I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! I read it for another challenge and ended up IMMEDIATELY having to read the next 4 books in the series! lol

[Dana (aNovelAllure)]

If anyone would like bonus picks from me, just message me or send ME some bonus ones and I'll reciprocate! :) Cheers and happy reading!

[Larissa]

I started with Darkness and loved it!

[Karla]

I started on audio. I have check it out on paperback three times this year, and never got around to reading it! I'm finally going to "read" it.

[MountainKat, Moderator]

I have two of my picks going to start the month - in audio, Heroes Are My Weakness and as an ebook Love, Hypothetically

[Aarati]

Alright guys, I've picked for the people I missed earlier in the bonus group. If someone is still missing a pick please let me know!

[Dee]

As you should be! Kate & Curran are great in this, tho there might be some dissenters for this one...

[Jojo]

Becky - I finished Turbulence yesterday - A definite 5 star read for me. It was excellent which is why I read it in 1 day obviously.

I loved Jacqs and Zeke and their interactions and build ups. I definitely have to read the next in the series - fingers crossed it will be as amazing.

[Ramneek]

Finished my first pick today!
Group 1 - Gea
I read and absolutely loved it, this series is so cute and romantic but different in their own right :)
Thanks for the pick!

[Diane ~Firefly~]

Cariann - thanks for the rec on , I finished it today. Unfortunately Leigh was annoying with her lack of common sense.

[MountainKat, Moderator]

I finished my first pick, from Roger, Love, Hypothetically. I thought it was quite sweet - thanks Roger!
