I'm in!

So many books out this April (8 out of 12 so far), and one even expected April 29th.

I will probably participate but will probably slow down. I am not sure what I will pick now since I don't want to prevent me to read them this month.

That's fine. I usually wait until the end of the sign up to post my books because I don't know what I will read the rest of this month.

I need a replacement for Searching for Beautiful.

Is really YA ? On its GR page, there's no YA tags but New Adult, Adult and Erotica.

It doesn't sound like a YA to me based on the synopsis, Ilona.

I need a replacement for Transcendence.

Thanks, Ilona and Gisbelle! I miss some sometimes and then it is hard when it has YA and Adult as tags.

aww I really wanted to read Transcendence too :(

What about ? Its GR page only says New Adult but its summary doesn't say much about the age of the characters (first book is NA according its Amazon page and no special tags for the second http://www.amazon.com/Love-You-Death-... so it seems more adult).

Thanks again! (:

Sorry, Jacque. I'll get it to you shortly.

No problem. Thanks! (:

Sure. I start looking and then I forget I'm looking for YA only! Lol

Lol! Sometimes I forget to check and some tags are misleading. They have young adult and adult and whenever I see the YA I assume that is correct. Thank goodness for the people who help me pick out the non-YA ones! :d

Haha! I hear ya!

im in again

Jacquelyn, I'll use as my replacement book. Hope that works! LOL

Oh, shoot. I wanted to read Transcendence for the challenge, but you're right, it's not a YA book. Sorry about that.
So, here is my replacement for it:

My picks are :


Two of the titles I wanted to pick first may be considered children and YA, so I chose safer ones.

My picks are:

Thanks everyone for joining and thanks, Vicki and Elena for the replacement books.

You're welcome, Jacquelyn. And I have to add that this month's book pool is going to be even bigger than for March. Also, there are so many good books to read ! :D

Thanks, Ilona! Somehow I missed those!

Ok for April I'd like to add The Sibylline Oracle a Trilogy by Delia Colvin and I'm in for the challenge!!
