Morgan, congratulations on finishing the challenge and some online college!

I'm such a procrastinator, i have yet to read my book for this month. I think i'll end up putting an all nighter at the last minute.LOL

I know what you mean, i used to be the same way. Sometimes you just can't help it though.LOL

[Leah]

LOL, Love you, too, Ang. What would you do without me? Why, you would cease to exsist, of course! ;P
Glad to have helped you, though.

[Dee]

lol - I have the math figured out in my head on how much I need to read over the next four days to finish in time...I think I might need help ;)

Glad you liked the book Leah, I really need to get the second book now.

[Leah]

Pollyanna, it was so good. It was better than I thought it was going to be. I made my mom order the second one for me, LOL. Hopefully it'll be coming any day now.

Just finished Cry Wolf. Nairabell, thank you very much for recommending this book to me. I didn't much like Briggs Mercedes Thompson series but I really enjoyed Cry Wolf & will definitely keep up with this series.

Nicole,

Finally finished Definitely Dead and it was a fun romp hanging out with Sookie. Quinn was a nice addition to the bevy of characters, and the pacing of the action in this book was pretty brisk.

Thanks for the push to get this one off my TBR list. It was definitely worth it.

Oh xD. I read it a while ago, so I don't remember the full details, but I know I read the whole series back to back.=P Glad it was a nice quick read!

Oh and by the way, I got the recipe book from the library and made a few things from it. Very good. Thanks muchly.=D

[Annie]

Hi Sarah - I've finished Blood and Iron - it was a bit of struggle, required more brain power than I'm used to using these days! It's been a full-on month at work, hence my silence online.
Thanks for the push!

[Jennefer]

So glad you enjoyed Fresh from the Vegetarian Slow Cooker: 200 Recipes for Healthy and Hearty One-Pot Meals That Are Ready When You Are Ari! I use that cookbook often, one of my favorites!

[Dee]

Sherrill recommended Legend

I just finished this book today - its been a long time since i've read any Jude Deveraux, but I enjoyed the premise and will likely go back and re-read some of her ones that I read years ago!

From your TBR: Covet

I'm currently about halfway through Katherine's rec and should finish it tomorrow - I ended up being laid up with a migrane most of the day - but feeling better post-Chiropractic visit ;) but so far i'm enjoying it

[Rossy]

Hey Anna, thanks for recommending Wicked Lovely. It was really good, i enjoyed it so much more than Twilight.LOL

Can't wait for next week when i can continue the series.

[Rossy]

Is there anyone who finished their recommendation and i missed in the list above?

[Dee]

Rossy - not sure how you list 2 recs, but Sherrill and then Katherine picked for me

[Rossy]

LOL! That's why i asked, i knew there were a few of you with more than one recommendation but i was too lazy to look back at the old posts. Thanks i'll just add it to the bar at the bottom.

[Leah]

I finished Bitten last night, April 29th. Just in time! I'm very proud of myself that I was able to get both of my books done :)

Here's my review for Bitten:

Ok Leah, i made a note you finished 2 recs.

Hey Gigi, didn't you have more than one that you finished as well?

LOL!! Yes, I had 4 recs. LOL
1 from Carolyn
1 from Leah
2 from Avidreader

[Rossy]

Oh dear, now i remember. You shocked me when you finished them so quickly too.LOL

[Gigi]

LOL...I shocked myself...LOL

[BJ Rose]

Kingzkid,

I must sorrowfully admit that I didn't finish The House at Riverton. The library needs it back, and I've been struggling to stay with it - which really surprised me because I loved The Forgotten Garden (maybe being sick when I started it was the problem). Because I really do like K. Morton's writing, I'm going to try it in audiobook. But to complete this challenge (late!), I'm going to read a Cathy Hake book, since that was my 2nd choice, and I'll post here when I'm done.

[Leah]

Wow, Gigi, you were a busy bee with the recs in April!

[~Sara~]

Rachel: I finished Blood Brothers while on vacation and really liked it. I gave it 4 stars. I'm still fairly new to Nora Roberts, but so far so good! I'm going to finish the series then check out Black Ice. It looks good from the description and I love checking out new authors. Thanks!

Well, that's what counts :)

[KimKirt]

Yay! I did it! Finally finished my April rec (a few weeks late). I read Bitten and was glad that I did. It's outside my normal genre (I usually don't do paranormal), but I really liked both hero and heroine in this novel. Thanks again for a good rec, Cathy!
