I'm not, but this will force me to read it or start and DNF if terrible. Lol

That's a great plan! At least we're checking it off the list.

#23 Missing by Lynette Eason
Missing by Lynette Eason

This one keeps getting picked for me in various pick-for-me threads, so I think I need to get 'er done this time so it can be checked off the list at long last.

I'll be reading #133 When Grace Sings by Kim Vogel Sawyer, published March 17, 2015.
When Grace Sings (The Zimmerman Restoration Trilogy, #2) by Kim Vogel Sawyer

This means I'll also be reading book one in the series, as I haven't started it yet. But it's never a burden for me to "have" to read a Sawyer book. :)
Book 1: When Mercy Rains (The Zimmerman Restoration Trilogy, #1) by Kim Vogel Sawyer

And I might as well finish up the trilogy with this one...
Book 3: When Love Returns (The Zimmerman Restoration Trilogy #3) by Kim Vogel Sawyer

March 25th, 2014 - that's when it says it was first published, according to Goodreads. :)

I can't believe I had to go all the way to #855 to find the seventh that I have access to and isn't the last of a trilogy I haven't yet begun!

Is anyone willing to search my shelf and tell me which book would be my seventh? Having such a difficult time on my tablet seeing the covers well.

This round is a lot tougher than I thought it would be! Who knew there weren't that many books with at least one book on the cover??? Seems like I saw many of them last year... you know, like when I was writing this challenge. xD

I can totally see how that would happen. It's a fun topic still, though. 😁

Wonderful! I'm glad you've landed on one that's highly anticipated for you. Much better than one of those recent ones that you weren't much looking forward to.

I'll be reading #2 Love's Unending Legacy by Janette Oke. I have some catching up to do in the series, but that shouldn't be too difficult as I've enjoyed the first couple of books.

Soul of the Unconscious by P.S. Mitchell is the first one. This challenge is making me read books I've put off reading.
