I'm starting to. That's the only way I'll think I'll get through my TBR.
LMAO! That sounds so funny, ✿Michelle✿! "I have to read two books at once to get my TBR pile down." (Oh, dear. I'm getting giddy and I need to pee. Why do you always make me laugh, LOL!)

But no, I'm on GR with the giggles!
I just pictured you with two books in your hands... turning your head from side to side to take turns reading... too funny! **giggles** I hope you got to your class in time and weren't too tired.
After checking my "buddy read" callendar, I'd love to do a "buddy read" with you on
, ✿Michelle✿! However, I'll have some tail end days on another BR... so, I might not be able to post the first or second questions... unless I work on them now, LOL!

YES! I've got this downloaded. Have I told ya'll I have like close to 500 books downloaded that I just need to get to? I think I have a problem LOL Can I join in on this?
Only 500, Susan? Small potatoes. I think ✿Michelle✿ has you beat by a landslide. Check out her TBR bookshelf. LOL! Welcome to the "buddy read"! ☺

I looked at the reviews tonight and it does have great ones. I'm looking forward to reading this as well.
I'm going to try to find this one. The reviews look great, and I think I'm ready to read about some humans for a change. LOL!
LOL!

I think Sans is going to join us too, CaroB.
Here??? In this group? Woohoo!! *does a little dance* I'll bring the wine :-)
Why don't you PM her and ask for sure... she said yes, but that was b/f she lost her latest book.
I'm getting excited!!
I know how you feel, ✿M✿! I'm getting excited too, and I've read it! Can't wait to hear what you ladies think and the Q's you come up with.
So, the participants so far are:Susan (susayq), CaroB, Lisa Kay, Tracey, Sans (?), and myself?
Looks like you got it covered, ✿M✿! ☺
Hi guys! I'm here, I'll be joining. Nice to meet everyone (er, that I haven't previously met that is...)!
Hi Sans! Nice to meet you too :)
Yea! Sans is here! This will be fun. **hee hee**
Hi Susan and Tracey!Uh-oh, now I'll have performance anxiety, Lisa. ^o^
Did you drop a chromosome?
The way I react to crying women, you'd think I had. (Annoying co-worker has been crying next to me all morning. I just keep turning my iPod up.)
Oh, man! Is work still a zoo, or is this a new drama, Sans? Is this cry-crying or cry-whining?
Still a zoo, but I've been taking it easy yesterday and today (two bosses are traveling and I had a small scare yesterday). It ended up being cry-whining. Her tooth was hurting but she didn't want to take pain meds for it. WTF? It huts. You take Advil. End of.
Even one Advil at the beginning of the pain is better than having to take two or three when the pain is unbearable. There should be little Public Service Announcements on this stuff.
Does anyone object to me posting the first set of questions? I can be flexible if someone has a conflict with another BR, or real life etc....
That's fine with me, Michelle.
*waves* Hi Sans! Good to have you here!
I'm on the fence to start this one. I have it though, so maybe I'll join in.
I'm at work right now, so I'll post the schedule when I get home tonight. How many chapters a night works for everyone?
Can't find it :(... Book a million really disappointing me lately! Hopefully my used book store will come through. We'll see. Want a tablet for Christmas, can't wait to be able to download ebooks without having to run all over town looking!

*expect spoilers*
Book 1 in Lorraine Heath's Texas Trilogy.
Goodreads synopsis:
A weary, ex-Civil War soldier travels to Fort Worth to collect his brother's mail-order bride, a beautiful belle eager to escape war-ravaged Georgia, and finds the object of his heart.
Amazon.com review:
Don't read this fabulous book in public unless you're prepared to weep in front of strangers. Amelia Carson is a mail-order bride. She has come to Texas to marry Dallas, the ranch owner she has corresponded with for a year. But a broken leg (and fate) requires Dallas to send his brother, Houston, to meet Amelia in his place. Physically and emotionally scarred by the war, Houston doesn't believe he will ever find love. When he falls in love with his brother's betrothed, he never expects her to return his feelings. Together they discover that without honor, love is meaningless.
