Random Book List #342 (ends July 2) NEW!!!
I chose
for this challenge, but after 30% through I have to give up. I have never met a more selfish, self-absorbed heroine. And if she blushed one more time and call the hero adorable I'm going to puke.

LMAO, I have wanted to read this book for a long time but something makes me stop every time I get ready to crack it open. Comments like yours always come right before I want to start it. LOL.

Hi Ezinwanyi!
I think Uncharted wrapped up everything very nicely. I don't see any more stories about this group but we can always hope! I cried during this story, it didn't start out with a very emotional feel so when it took another turn I was caught by surprise. Have tissues!

I read The Diviners by Libba Bray and I really liked it. It's a paranormal mystery set in New York city in the roaring 20's. It reminded me of Bugsy Malone, I gave it 5 stars!

Random Book List Challenge #147I finished Chasing Perfect by Susan Mallery and it was ok. I gave it ***, the story didn't pull me in but I'll probably read the next one eventually.
I struggled to finish
(Sep 14). I haven't read the Edge of never but I was disappointed by this one, I gave it 2.5 stars.
I wanted to read
for this list but I am on a very slow moving long waiting list at my library. Oh well, it will probably end up being an Oct. or Nov. read.

.It was a cute, somewhat quick read about first love. It took a while to get to the main plot and I wish some more of the major subplots were wrapped up. Overall, I'm glad I read it and I did enjoy. 3 stars

"Random Book List Challenge #152I finished reading
and LOVED IT! Why is she not in print form? This book was hysterical, it's got to be one of the funniest books I've read in a while! Not only was it funny but the storyline was great too, it makes me want to go back to Denver to visit! Plus, the author is from my home state of Indiana. I will now be buying all of her books.

Right... I read three books on the list.The first was
which I gave 3 stars. It was a good read though not very remarkable. The second was
which I gave 1 star. I had not read the reviews before hand so I did not realise that there was a cheating aspect to the book, which is one plot device I haven't gotten along with well. Coupled with a heroine that I did not like, I ended up skimming many pages.The final book was
which I awarded 5 stars. This has been on my shelf for a while now, but I am quite happy that I finally read it. The book was quite an enjoyable read. Truly hoping for a sequel with Alice's story.
I finished
for
last October 6. Jet was annoying, but I enjoyed hanging out at Fortnum and ogling the "Hot Bunch". 4 stars.
