Hey y'all! I'm so excited for fall bingo!
me too! do either of you want to be captain? I've been captain before, but I'm not on much during weekends...also, I suck at team names so I'm happy with whatever you two come up with. =)
I really don't want to be team captain. i have a lot of appointments each week. I'm also horrible with team names.
Pumpkin, Spice and books so nice ? that's my pick for team name.

I have been captain before but I'm not on very much during the week always. I like the books of fright one goes with spooky season.
Raquel if you would like to be captain that would be great!
all Checked in looks like this week will be vampires I will get a list updated for us tomorrow
Raquel I've added you to Steph's Captain list, as she has to edit it.Also added the team name :)
Okay I have message 11 set as our list and I have chosen my books I will be reading.

I know she said that she isn't on weekends much I was hoping we would hear from her today.
I'm still here! Sorry I wasn't able to check in yesterday, work was busy...I have my first book chosen and am finishing my free space book today. 😁
it's okay thanks for letting us know.
the vampire book I'm looking at doesn't have a page count because it is currently only available as an audiobook, how many hours does it have to be to meet the page count requirement?
for me I have noticed 4hrs at 2 speed is around 320 pages
so does my book qualify? sorry, but math is so not my thing...I'm an editor for a reason.! =) ;)

Review — Truly, five stars is an inaccurate rating for this book. I have no words; and I have all the words! This book does not waste time luring a reader into the story and the story doesn’t let go even when it ends. While not a reread for me, I finished rereading the series a bit ago and was able to read the few new books that I hadn’t gotten to yet. I know this book will remain a stand out for me. I’m ready to start rereading again, just so I can experience this book again and have all the feels.

Review — It’s been a while since I’ve been to the Breed world, but it was a delight to come back to it. I enjoy getting to know the next generation of Breed from the group that started this series. In this book, Rafe—who is Dante’s and Tessa’s son—is the main hero. He’s a strong male, and certainly met his match with his mate. I had to pull a star because the ending felt way to rushed. I look forward to the next few books which will close out this great series.

Review
This was sooooo good! And man that cliff hanger I knew they were talking about her one and only rule a little to much in this book. But how could she not that was family what did they expect. The next book is the last one and I don't know what I am going to do without Reyes, Cookie, Charlie, and the whole gang. I hope maybe we get a series with Beep That would be kind of cool. That way we can see some cameos and what not. I love this series so much so far never a dull moment and full of spice each and every book. I am going to have to fit the last book in sometime soon.

Review: So good!
This book is about an average woman in a vampire who are not supposed to be together! They are fighting everything with everything within them that is telling them that they are meant to be! They are wondering why it is so hard. This book was absolutely amazing I am going to start book 2 of filthy rich vampire! I highly recommend this book.

Review: Pretty good
Overall all this book was pretty good. In the beginning it was kind of slow And I almost lost interest. About halfway through it really picked up and I was hooked. At the end it seemed to just cut off and made you feel like the book was not finished. With that being said I do recommend this book if I could give it a 3.7 I would as it is closer to that.

Book: Brimstone Bound
Author: Helen Harper

How It Fits: Group Bookshelf
Stephanie, I think you meant to write Brimstone Bound is on the Group Bookshelf, rather than the vampire shelf. It is Free Space after all, and not vampire. :)
Sorry you are correct! I copied what was at the top of the page on where I found it. I will correct it now :)

Review: So very good!
This book was so very good! Detective Emma Wanted nothing more than to be a part of the police force. But then she gets put into the sup squad and she thinks it's a bad thing! Turns out she's right but she's also wrong. Emma is dragged from vampires to werewolf and back again! She is killed but you'll never guess who killed her I know I didn't. I highly recommended brimstone bound! It held my attention from page 1 until the last!
Raquel free space is complete are you ok? are you still playing?
yes still here just not at a computer I will request late tomorrow
