***If you do not have access to your partner's shelf, please send a friend request to your partner!***

You now have one week to decide amongst yourselves how many books you will pick for each other, and to make those choices.

You can chat with your partner either here or by PM- PREFERABLY BY PERSONAL MESSAGE SO THAT THIS BOARD IS NOT CLUTTERED UP.

Either way, all of you MUST do a post on here this week that is similar to the example that I did on the first post:

My name: Jenny
My partner: Sarah
The books picked for me:
Cinder (read 3/16/2015)- 4 stars. Intriguing premise, great characters, and a really cool retelling that was unfortunately plagued by predictability.
The Hunt (read 3/28/2015)- 4 stars. The Hunt had lots of suspense, admirable lead characters, and kept me scared and nervous.

Note that you have until the end of July to read the books and edit/fill in the information/short review at the bottom.
Have fun!

Thank you for the picks!

Tell the Wolves I'm Home (read 6/20-6/26) - 2 Stars. It just wasn't for me, I got bored with it.
Avalon (read 7/18-7/23) - 4.5 Stars. I really enjoyed this book. I loved all the plot twists. I like the characters.

Perfect, one ARC, one I own to keep, and one I own to read and pass on!

Okay finished my first one
Read from June 8-June 13
Rated 3 Stars
I liked this but not as much as the first one. (Typical middle book syndrome in a series.) I've still got the third one pre-ordered though so I'm curious to see how this story wraps up.

Rats, well DNF'd on choice 2 . I just could not get into it at all. Hmm well, on to choice 3.

Ok well that didn't go as planned. Finished and boy was it weird. Maybe 2 stars....maaaaybe. It was like lets write a super stylized version of a werewolf mythology with an Indian background. Meh.

Sooooo....I guess if anyone else wants to choose something off my shelf (Pick it for me) that'd be cool :) I've got waaaay too many books so anything to start paring them down would be great.

4 stars
REALLY cute read, I absolutely adored this! Nice and light, but really funny, too. I was LOLing quite a bit through it! I'll be reading the sequel soon!

4 stars
It was a really good mystery, I really liked it! I did kind of figure out who the murderer was about 2/3 of the way through, but still, a good read!

Finished and gave it 2 stars. It was boring, repetitive, and predictable. I guess Fear Street just seems better when you're younger

Maybe. I haven't read Fear Street since I was a kid, maybe you're right :)

Glad you liked that one Jenny! I agree, it was cute and funny and a nice light read. :D I've been meaning to read the sequel but I haven't gotten around to it yet.

Finished and gave it 5 stars. I loved it and I can't believe it took me so long to read my arc.
