I've actually had a pretty great month!

This really upset me since I read books by favorite authors in the past like Hosseini, Beth Hoffman and Jeanette Walls. But their books just didn't do it for me this time around.

My least favorite books was by James Patterson

My favorite reads of the month are...

My favorite book wasJoyland by Stephen King

This ManBeneath This ManThis Man Confessed

Just brilliant.

My stand out was . It's not big on couple romance, but it is romantic. And it made me think of my afterlife options! ;) (Gawd I hope I turn up at some of Joe's great spots in the afterlife!)

Yep - they are awesome. I did a buddy read of these with a couple of others in another group - we tried to drag it out as long as possible. We'll be reading
this month.

I'm sure I'm gonna do a re-read before the next one comes out ~ I'll miss Ty and Zane too much,lol

Gawd, I love Jay Bell. I hate him a little for what he puts me through, but I really, really love him.

It was funny! Even though the second half was more serious, it still had some silly moments. ;) (view spoiler)[ Always remember not to reply to all contacts when the message is of a personal nature! (hide spoiler)]

LOL - I've been wanting to start mixing them up for a while, but hadn't worked out what I wanted to do :) ...I have a few more up my sleeve to keep me entertained!

These are mine:

I've been really lucky this month - I had another two 5 star books that I didn't list above (no idea where my head was at!):

- LOVED this book. Didn't love the third person POV, present tense aspect, but the story was so good, I couldn't care less ;)

- a Breann rec! Great friction, great strength. And it's free if you are a member of the MM Romance Group :)
