message 1: by Megan (new)

Megan | 1285 comments The objective (should you choose to accept it) is to read two different books that happen to have the same title. One must be a romance book; however, the other can be of any genre of your choice. There is no time limit for this Off the Wall Read. Post the books that you plan to read and then post again when you have finished them both, and if so inclined please state if you liked it or not or the star rating you gave them. Enjoy! Also feel free to post suggestions for others!

Michelle Gilmore | 3220 comments Great idea! I'll go through my books, and post a few books soon.


message 3: by Megan (new)

Megan | 1285 comments I actually can't take credit for it- it's my mom's idea!

The only two I’ve come across so far are: Winter Garden by Kristin Hannah and Winter Garden by Adele Ashworth

Winter Garden by Kristin Hannah Winter Garden (Winter Garden, #2) by Adele Ashworth


message 4: by Michelle (new)

Michelle Gilmore | 3220 comments Cany you believe I went through my books, and can't find two books with the same title?! I was so sure I'd have a few.


message 5: by Michelle (new)

Michelle Gilmore | 3220 comments Someone may be interested in these two that I found while looking for some books to buy on amazon:

The Seduction of His Wife by Janet Chapman and

The Seduction of His Wife by Tiffany Clare

The Janet Chapman book is a contemporary romance and the Tiffany Clare book is historical romance.

The Seduction of His Wife (Logger, #1) by Janet Chapman The Seduction of His Wife by Tiffany Clare


message 6: by Michelle (new)

Michelle Gilmore | 3220 comments Okay, here are two that I actually own:

Sinful by Charlotte Featherstone and Sinful by Susan Johnson

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 20787 comments Oh, I like this clever challenge. I'll have to check my bookshelves and then re-read it and then this can justifying a trip to the bookstore to select a new one. Thanks!

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 20787 comments Michelle,

Thanks, I think you solved my answer to this challenge. I really enjoyed The Seduction of His Wife (Logger, #1) by Janet Chapman and The Seduction of His Wife by Tiffany Clare looks good, though I have never read anything by this author.

I haven't read either book, but they both look pretty good to me, so I'm considering buying both of them.

message 16: by Lisa Kay, Moderator (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 20787 comments I haven't read a Jill Marie Landis book in years, or is it decades. Maybe I'll read that this month. Does anyone know if I can jump right in on the Vampire Hunter series, #8 or The Immortals, #2?

Yup. I was just giving some title idea. I don't think there's any particular start/ end date to this. Is there Megan?


message 20: by Megan (new)

Megan | 1285 comments You're right Michelle. There is no set time to start or to end this Off The Wall Read. If after a year people stop posting it will probably get archived.

Ruth | 116 comments Lisa - wow you found a lot quickly - they all look interesting too!!


message 22: by Lisa Kay, Moderator (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 20787 comments Ruth,
I really like this challenge you thought up! I am trying to save money and the clutter to my bookshelves (I'm an addict) by re-reading old books. I thought if I read one old title I have, then bought a new title book it would be fun. I have been looking at books from my shelves and then doing a search and there are many, especially if single word title. There are so many that I don't think I will be saving money or space! :o)
Below I added the Cary Grant book…this is like one degree of separation instead of six.

Dark Angel (Casteel, #2) by V.C. Andrews Dark Angel (Dark Angel, #1) by Mary Balogh or the reprint as a two for one Dark Angel/Lord Carew's Bride (Dark Angel #1, #2) by Mary Balogh Dark Angel by Lucy Blue Dark Angel (Sister Brides, #4) by Lynne Graham Dark Angel by Donna Ball Cary Grant Dark Angel by Geoffrey Wansell

Great! The question is, how many pairs of books with the same title are YOU going to read? LOL
