Danielle wrote: "Gigi, Are you going to be doing the pairing again for August?"No, not this month. I'm not sure who's doing the pairing this month. I can't believe its time already! LOL
SheSwitches, I have finally finish reading your rec The Dark Garden . Although I did not find this book as good as the Shadowland Club books, I still enjoyed it. Enough that I have also purchase the author's next book: The Dark Side of Pleasure. So looking forward to that book. Thank you for the rec. Cheers!

Danielle wrote: "Gigi, Are you going to be doing the pairing again for August?"I am picking a different member for each month so far. Unless somebody approaches me directly with a particular pairing method, he/she would like to use.
I just contacted the person i think would be perfect for this month. I will let you guys know who it is, when i hear back from them.

ROFLMAO!!!
Ahrcadia,I just finished reading Lover Eternal, ad I absolutely loved it. Thank you so much for the recommendation.
LethalLovely, I finished the 2nd book you recommended Vampire Academy and I really enjoyed it. I thought it was one of the better YA that I've read because it wasn't as prudish as some of the others. Thanks again!

I'm so happy I was able to recommend a few books that you've ended up enjoying!
I just finished Poison Study! I don't know why, but I just didn't feel like reading it all month, then randomly picked it up last night and it was AWESOME!! *****
Awesome, Danielle! I can't wait to read the next ones, I ordered them last night from the library so I'm hoping some time next week to get them :)
Giovanna, I think you should tell them you want to join in the thread that says August Pick It For Me. This is for July. This challenge is lots of fun and I'm sure your going to like it. Welcome!

Glad to hear you liked it :)
Hi Sandy,
Thanks for recommending The Book thief, I loved it and gave it 5 stars.
1. Most often I read paranormal, historical romance or erotica2. Interested in reading: just about anything, but I'm not that crazy about contemporary law enforcement/suspense type stuff.
Thanks

Shelley - I'm about half-way done with Moon Called which was one of your picks for me this month (my second one), but I don't think i'm going to get it done! i'm stuck at work today (boo, hiss, no kindle allowed) and I have a stats assignment to work on tonight when I get home, so I doubt I'll get any reading done! But i'm really enjoying it and will def. be reading more in the series
Okay, whew! Did it! Read Public Secrets, so color me done for the month! I really enjoyed it! I haven't read a lot of Nora Roberts and will definitely read more now. Thanks for the rec!
Hey:-) Finally got around to reading Weddings Can Be Murder yesterday.. (forgot it when I went on holidays, lol):-) Cutting it close this month!Thanks for the rec Diane, I thought it was a very fun read, which I thoroughly enjoyed:-) I will definitely be reading more Christie Craig:-)
Hey Delicious DeeJust wanted to let you know I finished a second pick, Long Hard Ride, and really enjoyed it! Very, very hot! The rest of your picks are on my TBR now so I'll be reading those as well :)
glad you enjoyed!! Lorelei James is one of my favorite authors! The 9th book came out a few weeks ago and book 10 is due out in November (not soon enough!) and she has a new series coming out in August

I absolutely adored this series! All four are excellent books, but I like to start at the beginning.... lol
2. And Then..."</i>
Julia, Ugh! I'm currently reading [book:Ashes in the Wind. Unfortunately, I won't have the book finished by tonight. However, thank you for this rec, as well as the others. Its really interesting so far!
Delicious Dee the book slut wrote: "and the next thing you know, Melanie has ordered her entire backlist off of bookdepository!!"Hardy har har Dee:-D You know me well!
Nah, I promised my parents that I wouldn't order any more books (at least until I move out next month, lol), no matter the 34 books in my BD basket already:-) They almost had heart attacks when we got back from Alaska to 3 boxes(50 lbs each) from ebay...
And I actually already ordered and received CC's Shut Up and Kiss Me:-)
No kidding:-) I'm panicking because I have about 4 boxes full and over 30 piles of books in my room that I don't know where to put, lol.. and that's not counting the box destined for you:-)
I know I'm a little late but just wanted to post that I finished Captain Jack's Woman by Stephanie Laurens and Loved it.I still have a few more pages of Fire by Kristin Cashore but so far it's been amazing!
Thanks, Macwolf01 for my recs. I still plan on reading most of them. :)
