message 101: by Sonja (new)

Sonja (sonjac) | 1364 comments Hey y'all! I've finished my first Feb PIFM book so far!
Stayed up way too late last night because I could not put Angel in a Devil's Arms down! J.A.L. is my go-to for solid HRs and she didn't disappoint! Definitely moving to my recommend list!
Angel in a Devil's Arms (The Palace of Rogues, #2) by Julie Anne Long

How's everyone else doing?

Tamara (tacraig) | 12 comments Well I have read three of my PFIM.

I just finished “The Candle Palace” by Devney Perry

Last week I read “The Year I Fell Down” By Bowen and “The Tycoons Revenge” by Melody Anne.

I am looking at my list and trying to choose the next for the later part of week. The book I read this week was a tearjerker for me because some of the topics the hero and heroine dealt with in their story. But I am glad I finally read it.

So far I have only had the chance to read Flirting With Danger (Samantha Jellicoe, #1) by Suzanne Enoch and Break Free (Smart Girl Mafia, #1) by Amiee Smith .

Both were fun reads. Break free was definitely more erotic than Flirting with danger. Amiee Smith was a new to me author and I really enjoyed her bluntness in her mc’s sexuality.
I am no stranger to Suzanne Enoch’s historical romance but it was great to read a contemporary from her. I will continue with both series.

🌹Thanks Nancy🌹

Rebecca
I'm glad you liked it. I read it for my one class and enjoyed it even though it's not my typical genre.


message 108: by Tamara (new)

Tamara (tacraig) | 12 comments Chaos, thank you.

I got hooked on the series that started with your pick for me of the Lumberjack Werebear by T.S. Joyce.

It has made this Valentine weekend bearable as I wait between procedures and doctors.

It is a great start to a great series of books that are easy to read and escape into a Wyoming group of shifters finding love.

Thanks again....I am off here now to read the last in the series.


message 109: by Fran, Moderator (new)

Fran | 12278 comments Hi Carrie!

I read Delayed Satisfaction from your list for me. I liked it! It was a prequel, and I will probably continue on with the series. Thanks for the push to get it off my tbr!

I am glad you enjoyed them, Beth!


message 112: by Nancy H (new)

Nancy H | 1111 comments Hi Fran,
I have read two of my picks so far and have really enjoyed them:
Missing Under The Mistletoe: A Flower Shop Mystery Christmas Novella Missing Under The Mistletoe A Flower Shop Mystery Christmas Novella (A Flower Shop Mystery, #19.1) by Kate Collins and Moti on the Water Moti on the Water by Leylah Attar . I thought both books were excellent.

For the "Premeditated Peppermint", I need to read an earlier one in that series since I am not quite up to this one yet, but that is allowed in this challenge, so I will let you know when I get that one done. I also hope to read a few more before month's end. Too bad February is short month - lol!

Thanks again for the great picks!

Trip  (shardsofromance) | 2210 comments Thank you TC!

I loved the pick of The One Decent Thing by Eliot Grayson it's not a book I would have picked for myself, but I really enjoyed it xx

Got a few others down that I might read, however just in case I don't I wanted to make sure mentioned this one.


message 114: by Gabriella (new)

Gabriella | 203 comments I think I won't be able to read another book for this challenge this month, so checking in. I planned to read two books this month, but work got in the way, so one it is.

I finished Making It Up As I Go Along, a really cool book from one of my favorite authors, and I really enjoyed it. I had been reading it for a while, so it was nice to finally finish it. Thanks for the pick, Carmen!


message 115: by 〰️Beth〰️ (new)

〰️Beth〰️ (x1f4a0bethx1f4a0) | 286 comments I finished three more picks
The Unhoneymooners by Christina Lauren which was a pleasant surprise.
First Class to New York (First Class Novels, #1) by A.J. Harmon this was good but didn’t realise it is not a stand alone
The Lying Hours (How to Date a Douchebag, #5) by Sara Ney this was ok but not as good as some of the others in the series.

Will try and read one or two more but am also trying to read Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra . Not sure what I was thinking when I signed up for the buddy read. 🙄😳🙄


message 116: by Laura (new)

Laura | 27 comments I read the book Fireproof this month. I think I liked the book even better than the movie!

message 119: by Tamara (new)

Tamara (tacraig) | 12 comments Well I wrapping the month up with one last book.

It was by new authors for me. ~~Shark’s Edge~~ by Victoria Blue.

Only thing that frustrated me about the book that I gave ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ to was it ended on a major cliffhanger. Need to wait until I have more amazon money to buy rest of series.

Thanks for some really great reads this month.

message 122: by Beth (new)

Beth  | 187 comments Unfortunately I only got to one book on my PIFM for February 2020. I read Archer's Voice by Mia Sheridan Archer's Voice by Mia Sheridan and enjoyed it immensely. My review can be found here https://www.goodreads.com/review/show....
I've added several of the others from that list onto my TBR, and have installed at least two more into my Kindle.


Jamie - The Bookish Attitude (thebookishattitude) | 80 comments Lines by Anna B. Doe and Pack's Promise by Julie Trettel were the only two I manged to finish entirely.

Sway by Adriana Locke and Park Avenue Player by Penelope Ward were DNF's

Brody's Redemption by Kay Lyons while technically I finished the book, I skipped pages & even chapters up till about 70% due to the content and maybe even the writing.
