How It Will Work:
1) Please only post no more than 10 books that you would like to read this month.
*minimum 5 books.
2) An assigned person will pick TWO BOOKS from your post series.
3) Pick a Bonus Book...Per the shelf instructions
4) You have one month: JUNE 2021 to try to read one of the chosen books. (*if you don't read your book this month, it's okay because this challenge is for YOUR ENJOYMENT)
5) Please try to select for your pair ASAP as we all get excited and waiting is torture to some.

I don't think I'm supposed to pick for Carrie again anyway since I've already picked for her once before.
I think that the pairs were under a spoiler for a reason - I think Ezi put it there as a template for when she creates this month's pairs list because it s duplicate list from last month.She hasn't actually posted that the pairs are up, so I think we all just jumped the gun a little.

Ahh, that makes perfect sense. Thank you for most likely clearing up the confusion. ^_^

Ok. I thought I lost my mind...again...lol
Are we good now to pick? It appears the real list is up.

That makes sense.
Hi LaurLa! I'm excited I get to pick for you.I haven't read any of the books on your dusty bookshelf, but I am going to go with
and
because they are both rather high #s in the series count.For your bonus I will give you two options:

(any book in this series)
For Karen:
bonus romance on your TBR that I love:
Mod
because I love magic and it looks intriguing and
because I'm a knitter too and I love a good cosy mystery. For a bonus book, I chose
, which is on both of our to-read lists. Enjoy!
Deanne, I'm going with a books theme for you. Here are my picks:
Bonus:
P.S. I love your idea of having a bonus "list" to choose from. It made it easier for me, and you'll know you're getting something that you really want to read.

. Your bonus pick was really tricky, though, because you have a messload of books that I absolutely adored on your to read list, but I finally settled on
