I chose Tending Roses because I wanted to join in the discussion this month (it'll be my first time!) but I still haven't figured out where that takes place. I've been on Goodreads for several years and I never get involved in the groups because they seem overwhelming...I can never find where to post. My goal this month is to figure it out. All hints welcome :)

Marie here is the link where the discussion will take place. The links are near the top of the home page each month under Book of the Month and Group Buddy Read. Hope this helps you.

Hopefuls:

Thank you so much Loraine! It was difficult on my phone app but it seems to be easier to find stuff when I'm on my laptop. Thanks again!

I'm having trouble getting into a book I signed up to review. I have to finish it by February 12 and didn't realize how long it was! Finding Amor

Then I want to finish the "short story" I started, not realizing how long it would take to read. (Kindle says more than an hour).

Then I will need to get started on a much shorter book for review in March,The Baggage Handler.

If I have any more time, I need to finish Gulliver's Travels that I never finished last year (I'm at 50%) to count for the Past, Present, & Catchup challenge.

February is going to be another difficult month for me, implementing and going live on a new system at work is taking up a lot of my reading time. But I hope to finish: and (GM for work).

If I have time I hope to start: and .

I am thoroughly enjoying The Twin by Jan Hudson. I am halfway through it and so far it is a clean, sweet romance.
It just is SO Texas and as an adult transplant to this marvelous state I am a total fan.

Whoops, around page 140 The Twin lost its clean designation. This is c2010 Harlequin American Romance (series book).
So NOT recommended for CFD group....

What I read this month: and .

What I started, but didn't finish:

For book exchange at work: ; ; and .

I did pretty good this month. I finished as well as a GM YA fantasy. I won't have enough time to finish or but both are enjoyable so far.

I was happy with how much I got to squeeze in this month in termns of fiction since I started my master's

Yes! Especially for such an short month.

I wish I could listen to audio books, since I do a lot of computer work it would break up the silence. But I get so lost in them, I loose my place, it is a disaster. 🤷‍♀️ So I guess I will just stick to paper books and my Kindle.

I did not get as much reading as I had hoped in February but I did finish 2 of my planned books:
and

With March being longer than February I hope I get more reading done.

In February I read:

What did you think of Wendy?

Sarita - Restarting a few chapters when listening to an audiobook is one of the draw backs but I still enjoy listening 😊

Same here :-)

Here's what I managed to read in February:

I've been slowing down in my reading challenges, trying to read more intentionally. I only finished 4 in February: Finding Amor, Anne's House of Dreams, A Very Austen Valentine, Mark (Bible #41), ESV

I found it interesting, and all the twists and turns kept me turning the pages. Oh, and I loved Kevin!
The only downside for me was the amount of social drinking that went on throughout the story.
