I wouldn't have been so fast if I hadn't been able to get almost all of them on audio.

Finished The Duke Who Didn't -- pretty cute (and steamy). I'm generally not a fan of romance, but I think romance fans would love it.

I'm lucky enough to have been able to get ahold of all of them within 25 days! Got them all!
I just finished listening to the Star-Crossed Sisters of Tuscany and enjoyed it more than I expected to. 4 stars from me.
Finished The Last Flight -- pretty good!
I just finished The Paris Secret. It was probably my favorite of the 7 books that I read. I'm not planning on reading any others at this point.
Paris Secret was so good
I can probably squeeze in one or two more. I may go ahead and listen to the audiobooks on hold even if they come past the deadline.
Did "Fortune Favors the Dead" drag for anyone else the further you went along? I kept trying to figure out why, but it was a real struggle to finish. I did the audio version so maybe that might be different than reading it?

The ending was pretty anti-climactic because it used the tactic "They told us something very interesting, and then we solved it" so the reader never sees the clues fall in place.

Thanks to everyone for your support again this session!
I am squeezing in Pretty Little Wife here at the end.

I think Midnight Bargain, Paris Secret, and Interior Chinatown are probably my favorites, in that order.
Midnight Bargain feels like the one I'm most likely to eventually reread.

I got The Paris Secret too late to vote, but I really enjoyed almost all of it. Looks like The Last Flight won - didn't get to it, but will need to now.
