It happens to all of us, I'll pick for you. I choose Temperance Brennan, because I've been wanting to read that series! So I'll live vicariously through you. :D

Thank you Marla, this really helps push me a bit. I usually only get one book done in the series but at least that's one book down right.

That's exactly how I feel! Last year I got 2 books done for all but one series. But this year, I've only been able to do one book a series a month. I like this challenge and I need to work on my series. (And I prefer this series over the the Dusty Bookshelf series that is only one book a month.)

[Miz]

American Gods 1-2


The Immorals 5-6


Trylle 2-3



House of Night 10-12


I hope I'll manage since I have problems with guitar class.

[Marla]

Finished

[Marla]

Do we have a thread for next month yet?

[Ezi, Factory Superintendent]

Per Rach's monthly nagging reminder: May 2015 FWYS Series challenge

[Nichole]

Paris- I finished both books!

- It's been a while since the last book and I found that I really enjoyed this one. I was a little worried because Katy got on my nerves in book 3, hence the long gap. It was nice to get back to it- 4 stars!

- 2.5 stars:( Well, what can I say about this one. I wanted to do bodily harm to Katy. Seriously, she made me so mad with her stupidity. I... ugh. I'm so glad to have knocked out another series, though. And I really like this author so I'm not giving up. Thank you so much for the push :)

[~Melissa~]

Shy

*whispers - don't kill me* I didn't realize the last book I put on my list for Elemental Assassins isn't published yet - doh

So I finished up - as always I enjoyed it - 12 books in and yes it is slightly repetitive but I love this crew.

Since I screwed up - I read another 4 from another series this month to make up for my blunder

Hard Ink:
- 4♥'s 4♥'s 4♥'s 3♥'s - only because it was too short :)

I finished the rest of Riley Jenson this month and enjoyed the reads - the last book being the best!


Thanks for the pick Margaret!

April
Picked for — Paris
Picked by — Sadie

Thanks for the pick Sadie! This is such a fun series and I'm glad I'm caught up!! :)

Billionaire Boys Club
Beauty and the Billionaire — ★★★★ 4/2
This was a sweet story. It had a few parts that seemed to be repetitive and drag, but overall it was a a good book! I liked getting to know Hunter better. We got to meet him in the first book, along with Gretchen. However, I felt I knew Gretchen a bit better starting this book. These two were an odd, albeit perfect, pairing...I hope to see a bit more of them in the upcoming books.

The Wrong Billionaire's Bed — ★★★ 4/7
To this point, we haven't learned much about Reese or Audrey. Both have been rather one dimensional. This book allowed us to get to know both characters better, but in many ways it seemed a bit rushed. Also, I don't feel like Reese was given a lot of depth. With Audrey, we were able to get a sense of what drives her and the decisions she's made, but Reese is just a playboy who up and changes. It was a bit disappointing.

Once upon a Billionaire — ★★★★★ 4/16
I just LOVED this story! Griffin hasn't been well known before this book. He's been the semi grouchy aristocrat at the poker table. He was able to shine in this book! Of course, he wasn't always wonderful...in fact, he's really good at being grouchy....but when he lets his guard down and Maylee sneaks in it...is...so...on! Maaylee, for all of her annoying habits, truly is a sweet woman at heart. I really enjoyed seeing these two bloom!

Romancing the Billionaire — ★★★★ 4/18
I was this close to giving this book a 5-star rating, but Violet kinda pulled the greatness out for me. I really loved how the story progressed....the mystery was interesting....seeing 10 years of pain and loss catch up with Jonathan and Violet worked for me. My issue was how much griping Violet did for almost the entire book.

[Lou~❧Powerless Over 1-Click❧]

Alana,
Thanks again for selecting Aleksandr Voinov's Dark Soul for my April FWYS series. I read & and enjoyed them so much that I don't understand why I kept making other reading choices. You gave me the push I needed!
