Yes, there's something wrong. I'm not going to pick for anyone until @Ezinwanyi fixes it. I don't think I'm supposed to pick for Carrie again anyway since I've already picked for her once before.

I think that the pairs were under a spoiler for a reason - I think Ezi put it there as a template for when she creates this month's pairs list because it s duplicate list from last month.

She hasn't actually posted that the pairs are up, so I think we all just jumped the gun a little.

Ahh, that makes perfect sense. Thank you for most likely clearing up the confusion. ^_^

That makes sense.

I choose for Chelle:

and Bonus:

Hi LaurLa! I'm excited I get to pick for you.

I haven't read any of the books on your dusty bookshelf, but I am going to go with and because they are both rather high #s in the series count.

For your bonus I will give you two options: or (any book in this series)

For Karen:



bonus romance on your TBR that I love:

For Diane ~Firefly~ I choose because I love magic and it looks intriguing and because I'm a knitter too and I love a good cosy mystery. For a bonus book, I chose , which is on both of our to-read lists. Enjoy!

Deanne, I'm going with a books theme for you.

Here are my picks: Bonus:

P.S. I love your idea of having a bonus "list" to choose from. It made it easier for me, and you'll know you're getting something that you really want to read.

For your regular picks, I went with and . Your bonus pick was really tricky, though, because you have a messload of books that I absolutely adored on your to read list, but I finally settled on because it's a bit off the radar, but still so very good. ^_^
