R5: SS Trigger Happy Bunnies (16)
I just want to make sure we aren't going to get penalized for starting books before the start date though :-/
Nicole has played before so I'm thinking she knows that. I'm guessing it's a typo. I'll shoot her a pm and check right quick.
I was susposed to post my review this morning but got busy painting my bathroom. I'll post as soon as I get home from work :)
I'm not sure if anyone was going to roll tonight for Nicole since she won't be able to, but I'm usually up as I'm a wonderful insomniac so I can always roll if we need someone still. Just lemme know :) Well granted we have all our reviews in of course :)
That would be great. What time do we roll? I haven't been able to figure that out?Also we still need Kat to post her review, but as she said she'll do it when she gets home I'm not too worried

This is the first time I have read anything by Katie Reus and I must say that I really enjoyed this book. Alpha Instinct had it all Action, Adventure, A Kick Ass Heroine and Smokin Hot Men. I liked the way she Built up her Shifter world and the politics that were involved. This is definitely a series that I will continue to read and enjoy :)

Review:
Once again I am delighted to have read another book in the Bewitched and Bewildered series by Alanea Alder.This time we got to met Gavriel's mate Elizabeth who was not only his mate but also a Bunny shifter, yes that right a bunny! Nothing to deadly about a bunny but the woman herself was kick ass. She was politically savvy and knew how to handle herself in those situations. Although this book was a lot more tame then book one it was no less entertaining and was still full of good humor and laugh out loud moments. I can't wait to read the next book!

If the alternate category is China, would it count if the main character is Chinese? The book in questioned takes place in America, but with a Chinese main character

That might be something you would have to ask Jenne

Well I was concerned I wasn't going to be able to fit in the book I originally chose but I got a lot of reading done this weekend so I think it'll be fine
Week 3Spot: 25
2nd in series
Finished: 4/7/15
Rated: 5 stars
by Suzanne CollinsI don't know why I waited so long to read this book! I read the first one many years ago and have already seen this movie. I enjoyed the book so so much! I had a hard time putting it down. I can't wait to read the next one already. I possibly even liked this one more than the first!
It's Wednesday!! How's everyone coming along??!
Slowly. I chose a long book for this week
I'm back!OMG Amy, catching fire was my favourite book of the series as well.

Yay! I'm glad you're back! And yeah it was really good. I'm holding off on Mockingjay for now hoping it will maybe fit into this challenge down the road :)
Haha once we get into the 30s, I'm sure it will.

Review
For the most part, I really enjoyed this book. I had to take 1/2 a star off though because the heroine did occasionally get on my nerves for constantly flopping back and forth between being ready to commit to Luke and then getting cold feet. She really put the poor guy through the wringer, and it started to become very annoying. All in all though, it was a very fast paced book, and I'll definitely be reading more in the series.
Haha once we get into the 30s, I'm sure it will.
I'm holding off reading my bingo book I'm hoping this weeks roll will take us into the 30's cause my bingo book is a 3rd in series and I want to try and make it fit for at least 2 of my team challenges :)
Nicole - did you ever choose a book for this week? I don't have one written down for you
I'm exempt for this week given the being away for Easter. I'll roll for next week later on today though!
Nicole wrote: "I'm exempt for this week given the being away for Easter. I'll roll for next week later on today though!"Okay cool!
Also we can't roll until j post my review. So I'm going to power through the end of my book tonight and post as soon as I can
Hahah, no pressure at all intended, Erin. It was just mostly written so that there were no concerns with regards to *who* would be rolling this week!
How are we doing?? Is Erin the only one left to post a review? Sorry I'm just anxious for us to roll :)
Okay finally finished!Spot 25
