Hi Marla, I thought it would be interesting to pick your oldest book for you, so I chose
by Catherine Coulter I just happened to see the notice come through and didn't want to forget to do this. Will PM you as well!
Thanks for the picks, Tari. I read lots of mysteries, but I like serial killers and don't read many cozy mysteries, so I'll try my best.Here's a few choices for you:
~ this one is on my list too
~ oldest on your list
~ highest rated on your list
Hi, Ariel, there are so many things on your shelf that were also on my main tbr so this was fun to choose. I hope you like everything.
this was the only one that I had already read and I enjoyed it alot. (I rated it 4 stars)
I read half of this and it was really good so far. I might read it this month also.
on both of our tbrs and a lot of people enjoy it

Ooo those are all awesome, Marla thanks! Oh gosh should I have given you more than one to pick from? I can go find you a couple more if you want. Hehe I used to read thrillers but they made me too nervous LOL. Some cozies do a good job of making me nervous too until the killer is taken down ;)
Ariel wrote: "Jaylyn, I haven’t been able to pick for you because your account is set on private"Oh I'm really sorry I did not even know my account was on private. I've confirmed your friends request so your good to go.

Like the name implies, those who participate in this monthly challenge will have a book selected for them by a partner. Partners will be randomly paired up. You will choose a book for your partner from their to read list (TBR), and they will choose one for you from your TBR list.
Once you have picked the book, come back to this thread and post what book you have chose for your partner. Also send a message to the person with the name of the book you have selected for them. Then when you're done with your book, come back to this thread and post your opinion so we know you have completed the challenge.
For this challenge, you need to either HAVE YOUR PROFILE SET TO PUBLIC (preferable) or make the person you're paired with your friend. I strongly advise keeping your bookshelves updated, otherwise you might end up with a recommendation for something that you've already read.
Sign up period will remain open until December 28 and you'll have until January 1 to make a selection for your partner.
EVERYONE TO FINISHE THIS CHALLENGE WILL RECEIVE THIS BADGE.
