I've updated everyone's progress on message 104. Welcome to the challenge Sherry, Anissa and Vernice. Congratulations on "finishing" Brianna - I'm sure you'll find more books that will fit the remaining categories - we do have 3 months for this challenge after all :)

Brianna wrote: "Would Inferno qualify in the action genre? It is shelved a few times as such, but I know it is more associated with mystery or thriller."

Having read I would say it qualifies as an action book. If they turn it into another movie I'm sure that's what it will be billed as - an action/adventure.

Winter wrote: "Would A Clockwork Orange qualify for an impetuous decision?"

I have not read or so I don't know the answer. Has anyone else read this book(s)?

I asked because I have never used that word much, so I'm not exactly sure how to interpret it. I think I decided to find another. It's Anthony Burgess

The Rosie Effect by Simsion Graeme

Just completed #5 Steampunk - Prudence by Gail Carriger. I was rather disappointed with this book. I really enjoyed the parasol protectorate and had great hopes for this series. It just fell flat. I didn't really connect with the characters, and the cheekiness of the first series didn't really jive in this series. Might eventually pick up the 2nd book, but not going to run out and grab it. 2.5 stars

Just completed #11 2015 book - At the Water's Edge by Sara Gruen. Overall, I really enjoyed this book! The characters were interesting, the plot got a bit twisted, and the love story very sweet. My main complaint was that the beginning was rough and took a bit for me to get interested in the story. About 1/3 of the way in, though, I was hooked. Definitely worth reading! 4 stars
