Oh great! Eleanor of Aquitaine seems fascinating

You’re hitting it out of the park this month!
Finished: Sugar Cookie Murder, Under a Harvest Moon, My True Love Gave to Me: Twelve Holiday Stories and My Commander. I really liked them all! The My Commander book reminded me of the zannier Shelly Laurenston’s which is my catnip- yay! New author back catalog to explore📚❤️

I am SO glad you like them! You just never know if someone else will enjoy the ones you recommend, so thanks for letting me know!

Rebecca I've been terrible at reading this month fromt he awesome list you gave me - BUT - I've got as my next book to start this weekend and then after that! My aim is three this month from your list at least!

Woohoo! Go Leigh! ☺

Carrie,
I finished Neanderthal Seeks Human , and I LOVED LOVED LOVED it!!! I started it around midnight and was still reading at 3 a.m. - it is definitely a stay-up-and-read-all-night book, and I am so glad that you recommended it! I am planning to continue with that series since it was so good.

Also, the one I read earlier, the first one in the Nora Roberts' Key series, spurred me to continue on with that series, and I am almost done with the third one. I know that last two weren't on the pick list, but I just had to read them - lol!

Thanks again for such good picks. I am probably going to finish one more - the 'Housewife Assassin' one, but will read the others from your list later because there are so many good ones on there.

You picked for me last month, now I get to pick for you :) Hopefully you find something good!"

Hi Mary-Megan!

I finished Dirty Distractions from your list for me. I was able to use it for other challenges as well, so bonus! Thanks for the push to get it off my tbr :)

I'm glad you were able to use it for multiple challenges, those are always great.

Thanks Diane for all the great picks I finished five post 95.

Glad you liked most of them!

Carina

Thanks for the suggestions. I got three done, although I can't say I really liked any of them. They all had little flaws that irked me. They were all from my TBR list, so no hard feeling ;-) I am also in the middle of Sandpiper Island which was a new one you suggested. Hopefully that's better than the ones on my TBR list...

Rebecca wrote: "I'm not sure what happened there I wrote no problem let me know how you like Cinder"

I ended up having to read Something About You first and am likely going to finish it tonight. So far I'm liking it! Cinder will be top of my list for next month and I'm super excited to read it!
Thank you again for your awesome picks! I have several on my TBR list now and will let you know as soon as I finish! :)

Hey Laurala

From the TBR picks i managed

A Fistful of Charms Loved it... this sreis just gets better and better
Death Masks Same goes for theis series, i love all the different Sups and how they all manage to interfere in Harr's life.
Pure Ecstasy was another brill read.
Ceremony in Death this has to be my least fave in death so far, Dallas came across a little to mechanical, i usually love the way the Author dances on the hardness to Dallas line, this time it went a bit to robotic, not enough Rourke moments.....

From your picks
Secondborn I started it on audio... I think it was the Audio and mindset i gave it two hours but was a little too slow, i dont wat to say it was a DNF as i may yet return to it.

Feral Sins OH MY GOD.... I LOVE!!!!! this thanks so much for the rec i just finished book 3..... im chewing through these...... I will check out this author other books too......

I finished 3 books this month a 2⭐️My Sister's Secret: A Hot and Historical Regency Romance 4⭐️Something So Right and a 5⭐️The Controversial Princess thanks for the great picks 😀

So I started this one on the 30th and finished on the 1st, so it half-way counts?

Rebecca, I did finish and really enjoyed it!! One... one book finished this month... pathetic!

BUT I've got several on my list to finish for December so hopefully I can add to it! Thank you so much for the picks and so very sorry I didn't do them the justice they deserved!

One book is enough. What annoys me is when I spend a lot of time and effort picking for someone and they don't even bother reading one. All it takes is to leave a message saying they are busy and cant get around to it. sorry for the rant lol.

Sonja I only managed 2 books this month, but still have a few of your picks moved over on to my Dec tbr. What I did finish was which I didn't overly love. One of those books that the ending can make or break a series, it broke it for me. However I loved so very much.

Hi Elke, So sorry for the delay in commenting on my great picks last month! No excuse other than life got busy. I did manage to read 5 of my picks! Well, 4 if you don't count the one I read early. 😉

Devoted in Death by J.D. Robb 10.30.18
The Naked Truth by Vi Keeland 11.4.18
Duke Most Wanted by Celeste Bradley 11.7.18
Love Online by Penelope Ward 11.9.18
Shades of Wicked by Jeaniene Frost 11.26.18

I loved them all!! Thank you for the wonderful picks!

Hi Carrie, well you made it through more than me last month so great job! Sorry you didn't care for Mockingjay so much, but glad you liked A Study in Scarlet Women! I'm anxious to read that series myself! I love Sherry Thomas' writing!

Hi Elke! Finally, finally!, getting some things updated from November. I got a little preoccupied with things, and then the holidays hit and things just didn't get done!

Anyway, I read five of my picks, if you could the one I read in October!

Here are your picks for November. I hope you find a few you like here! You have a few of my favorite YA books on your tbr :)

Romance..."

Sorry, I've been out of commission for some time. :( My computer broke late last year and got me off schedule. I'm trying to get back into the swing of things by going back and reading old picks.

I just finished Shadowland. I loved the main character. Such a bad ass!



I've started Love Online and Stud Finder. Both good picks so far.
