AWWWWWW So sorry Ann. I have been there too. Hope you come out of it soon. This month my problem is I have more that I want/need to read and not enough time to get them all read LOLOL

[Lisa Kay, Moderator]

Hey, Robin, I've been looking for the cover to one of your books. Is this it?

[Lisa Kay, Moderator]

Or is this it?



Save for later, when GoodReads is working:

Despite all her attempts to avoid another heartbreaker like Quinn Daniets Erin Holmes was drawn to Price Seaver with a destructive, consuming passion. How could she have expected to meet Quinn's double while baby-sitting her best friend's five-year-old twins? Brenda was on vacation. Erin was in charge--until Price walked in and took over. Soon they were fighting old ghosts in each other's arms. All her life Erin had wanted the "perfect" husband, marriage, Family. Had the "perfect" man appeared? Was she too blind to see? Everything about Price threw Erin into a panic. Could she forget her fears and give love a second chance? Could she forget the past and begin again?

Finally gotcha, Robin, and congrats! Woohoo! Added the bookcover, but the metadata I am unable to add on this or any book. Seems GRs is having problems. Updated you in the Participant's Post #2 with hyperlinks and totals. Let me know if there are any errors.

Thanks Robin and Lisa Kay, I am trying a mystery for a change so maybe that will get me out of my reading rut!

[Lisa Kay, Moderator]

Yeah, sometimes a change in genre works, or just going to audiobook, or ...alas...T.V. Or vacation! Even better. ☺

[Ann]

a vacation somewhere on a beach, yes that would get me out of my rut lol.....

[Susan (susayq ~), Moderator]

Could I take Paul Marron with me to that beach? LOL

[Lisa Kay, Moderator]

Nope. He's going with me. Sorry, Susan.

[Lisa Kay, Moderator]

Well, the like buttons are gone. There are no books under "My Books" - for me or my friends, and I can't add data to books as a librarian. Hmmm. GRs is "buggy" again.

And Lisa Kay, I really liked Unearthly. It definitely is one of the best YA Angel-centric books I've read.
