Trisha- You're going to like your Wendy Mass pick!
I picked it because I remembered you read it! LOL! thx for helping me pick ;) I'm pretty excited! most of these authors I haven't read any of their books.
hehe, you're welcome! :DIt's nice to read some books by authors you've never read before. When I was younger Wendy Mass was my favorite author! I have read tons of her books.
Trisha, I really liked The Anti-Prom and Keep Holding On! :D

I don't know what to read for Linda Lael Miller and Kate Perry. The library only has book 3 for The Guardians of Destiny. And Miller's books are mostly, if not all, western romances. :/

How about this one
for Linda Lael Miller? I might read it.

I would participate, but my library only has 3 or 4 of those mentioned. :(
Aww that's too bad. But no worry :) I'll post more sets later. Or you can read this set, just read the ones that are available for you.
Yeah. I am really sad that my library doesn't have them.I will wait for the next set. Any idea when? Is there going to be one every new month?
Not that long, since this is not a monthly challenge. I am going to post another set around Saturday or so.
Maybe I will try another set, I don't know where to get these authors :(
No worry. I'll post several sets next time. Just pick the ones you like best :)
Gisbelle wrote: "Not that long, since this is not a monthly challenge. I am going to post another set around Saturday or so."Oh thanks, can't wait for the new list to appear. :)
Did I miss something, because I didn't see any YA-ish on Linda Lael Miller's list of books.. ???
This doesn't focus on YA actually. We just want to read books from different authors. You know, to broaden our horizon.But I plan to post more sets focus on YA.
Okay! Sounds good to me. I'm still in. I just have to find something thats NOT western. LOL
haha... come on! Who knows? You might like it :) I haven't read many western, and I'm sure more of us haven't either. That's why I included Linda Lael Miller :D New year, we should try sth new.

I don't know what it is about them. Though, I ended up finding a book she did with a few other authors. It's broken up into smaller stories.. one of which is western. JUST FOR YOU! LOL :D
