message 3141: by Mollydee (new)

Mollydee | 23 comments I have read a lot of short stories in January. February I am reading or am going to try for all romance. But I am not super fond of romance. I picked The Rosie Project because I have seen it all over. I started it it is good so far. I put some books to the side because I also am reading Friendship Cemetery, Untouchable (Everwinter) and Peaceful Genocide. All great books so far. I posted this somewhere else but I can use some suggestions for my own challenge. A-Z list I made two. One is all my choices and some friends. The other is my blog readers, authors, and friends choices totally. So if anyone has something I would love to add it. I will be putting the finished list on my blog. http://Mismatchedbbookends.Blogspot.com. Thanks!
