Pick for Me Challenge!!!

Come one, come all! You know you wanna...

1. Create a new shelf, or update the existing shelf on your Goodreads profile, that includes approximately 20 books that you would like to have someone else use to pick a book for you to read. Label it "Pick For Me." Only books from this designated shelf will be selected for this challenge, (no matter how badly some of us want to pick something else...hint hint, Ela, Judy...*giggle*)!

2. Post in this thread that you want to participate this month. If you don't post here, I don't know you want in.

3. Provide the link to your Pick For Me shelf, (this will make it a bit easier for all parties involved... unless you all really *want* to read Corrupt. *a new month, a new pick from me!*)

4. On October 1st, someone...the hand of fate, maybe, will use the randomizer to pair up everyone. (Or worst case scenario, I really will pick for everyone, and you *know* what that means, *shifty eyes*)

5. Friend your partner who is picking for you or set your profile to public or your partner will not be able to access your shelf.

6. Post your selection for your partner in this thread.

7. Come back after finishing the book selected for you by your partner (even if it's after the month has ended) and let everybody know what you think about it, or at least that you've finished...or DNF'd it (another book off your list is always a win in our book!)

**The sign up period will remain open until pairs are posted on October 1st and you'll have until October 4th to select a book for your partner or one of these other pick-happy little moppets will jump in and do it for you.**

Sample shelf: Grey's Pick For Me

Great pick.... I have a feeling this may be a NSFL one. Can't wait to dive in!!!


message 24: by Michele (new)

Michele (guilliem) | 2131 comments Ahhh Marissa! Your list was a buffet for me! I was so excited to pick for you -the only problem was there were so many options for me!!! In the end, I have to go with old school TJR... After I Do by Taylor Jenkins Reid . I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!


message 25: by Nay (new)

Oh yay!!! I’m looking forward to this one so much!!! Thank you, Michele!!!


message 28: by Melinda (new)

Melinda Ruyten | 1027 comments Layne, you had lots To choose from

I loved this one My Oxford Year

I hope you love it too.


message 29: by Nay (new)

Nay (4ukcats) I didn't know Serenading Heartbreak was a standalone! I'm so behind on Ella Fields' books and that sounded so good to me (because love triangle!) but for some reason, I thought is was a 3rd in a series.


message 30: by Nay (new)

Nay (4ukcats) Michele--you've got so many good ones on your shelf. I loved Something in the Way so much, but there were mixed reviews among my friends, Riven is wonderful and everyone loved it, but Bad Romeo was really something special IMO. I adored that book, so hopefully it's stood the test of time.

I pick Bad Romeo Bad Romeo (Starcrossed, #1) by Leisa Rayven

And I have no idea why The Mason List isn't on my shelves. I know I put it on there because of all the recommendations by everyone here. Ugh! The GR gremlins strike again, I suppose.
