Abigail Bok (regency_reader) 😂😂😂 Oddly enough, I didn’t vote for my beloved great lump this time around—but twist my arm . . .

I saw that you didn’t, and was shocked! Well, I always look forward to listening to this one, it is so much fun!

Abigail Bok (regency_reader) It’s not so much that the bloom is off the rose as it is that I don’t want that particular pleasure to go stale.

it doesn't seem like it could, but I have noticed I am needing to take a break on some Heyer. which is why I voted for the mystery this time; I haven't read them nearly as many times.

I have read The Unknown Ajax so many times I might just read/post without reading it again because "going stale" really does happen!

Same here, Jackie, that’s why I nominated a mystery; I like every title nominated, but figured throw in a bit of variety. ;)
