Alyson Reuben (alysonreuben) | 28 comments Okay, here are my two picks. They're both time-travel romances, which is what I've been in the mood to read lately. :)

Yellow
Enchantment by Orson Scott Card by Orson Scott Card

*** Read: 3-3.5 stars, the writing was excellent. I just didn't get into the story as well as I wish I could've.

Roses (June flower)
The Rose Garden by Susanna Kearsley by Susanna Kearsley

**** Read: 4.5 stars. Awesome story! I highly recommend it to fans of time-travel romances.

Luckily for me, I got "He Kills Me, He Kills Me Not" as a Kindle freebie and the book by Karen White was one I already had as well. I've been faithfully checking my booklists each month when the challenge is posted before I buy anything new. Otherwise, I'm never going to put a dent in the out-of-control list of TBRs.

Hope you enjoy HKM,HKMN! I haven't read it yet so don't have a clue for you.

No, sorry, Alyson, it wasn't you. My mistake; I left out that all important equals sign: = It should work now. ☺

message 81: by Lisa Kay, Tinker Bell (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 21897 comments No, sadly it is true, Pamela. As much as I wanted to blame it on this stupid GR Formatting Bug...**mumblegripemumble**... alas, it was me!

Well, you did sign up again! LOL!

Let me know if it still doesn't work, Alyson.


message 82: by Lisa Kay, Tinker Bell (new)
