Oh, I forgot about
, Darcy. I may use that as my alternate as my library has it on audio (and I have it in paperback). Thanks!
Oh, changed my mind. Maybe I'd better finish the Demonica series before starting that one. ☺
I'm in. Read the letters of April by choosing books from your friends bookshelves using the letter starting with either the authors first or last (surname) name.

0/5 Completed ((Sorry, these are from my own list because I can't afford to buy new books right now))
A The Vampire Next Door by Ashlyn Chase
P Masques by Patricia Briggs
R Truths of the Heart by G. L. Rockey
I Queen of Environmental Club by s.i. decker ((Closest author I could find with an "I" in the name))
L Cerulean Sins by Laurell K. Hamilton
OK to answer the Qs - one friend or 5 its up to you;
friends can be from this group, another group or a real life friend not on gr, as long as you borrow the book in that case;
Jeaux, you can use your own books - just look at your friends shelves cause they are sure to have the same books.
