Hi all!

Let's get the group up and running again and have sign ups starting today going through the end of the week! I'll pick partners on Sunday and all you need to do is have a bookshelf or list of books you want to read here in the thread for your partner to choose from.
I'm hoping to make this a monthly thing, so fingers crossed!

<3 J

Alright all! Since there is an odd number of people signed up for this Pick-A-Book, I'll sit out this round and Anna and AnnaMarie can pick for each other! :) If either of you want to pick for me you are more than welcome to, I have a Pick-A-Book shelf and I'll check it when I get back home from my trip. If either of you have not responded then I'll pick for whoever still needs a pick as soon as I get back!

Thanks ladies! I hope you have fun with this! :D
<3 J

message 11: by Anna (new)

My pick is: Pawn (The Blackcoat Rebellion, #1) by Aimee Carter :)

Just to update, I am loving Pawn so far! It's really interesting and I love how frank the author is about the ugly side of the world she's created.

Also a reminder that sign ups for next month are open! :D

Anna (amartinischwob) | 20 comments Jacquelyn, I'm glad you're loving Pawn!!!

I unfortunately misplaced my pick-a-book pick so I am putting it on hold until I can locate it, it might be in my mess of a book closet, so hopefully I'll find it soon!!!

This sounds like a nice idea and I think I would like to do this too. But probably not until June. I promised my friend that I'd read her favorite series before school is out. :)

Sure thing! If you want to join in now, you are welcome to just post a link to a shelf or a list of titles, or if you want to wait until June then just post again on this thread when I call for June participants! :)

message 38: by Jacquelyn (new)

Jacquelyn (wordswithjac) | 70 comments Mod
Is everyone enjoying their books? Or is everyone busy with finals time? I'm feeling that crunch myself and it's making it difficult to finish Falling Kingdoms (even though it's super good and if anyone has been reading along should totally discuss it with me! :D)
