Austenesque Lovers TBR Challenge 2019 discussion

If you are willing to place one of your September reading choices in the hands of another person, leave a comment here with at least five books and no more than ten from your TBR shelf. Participants need to leave comments no later than August 245h.

Here's how it will work:
Sophia will match people up and leave a comment with a list of who will choose for whom.
When you see the person you are to pick for, then look at their list in the above comments and leave a new comment with their name and the book you chose for them by August 31st.

You also need to watch and see what book your person chose from your list for you.
You have the rest of the month to read the book.

So if this sounds like something you would like to do, just comment below leaving your name and list of book choices for someone to pick your September book.

Oh, you know I have to sign up (even though I was delinquent in July and finished my challenge read in mid-August!)...

Here are a few books on my Kindle that I haven't had a chance to read yet. Pick one for me!

Christina > Janalyn
Janalyn > Patricia


Just as before, the name on the left picks for the name on the right from their lists in the above comments. Please post your pick by August 31th. And, don't forget to check for what your book buddy picked for you.

Drop back by and let us know what you thought of your pick or feel free to pose any questions or discussions about your book.

Happy Reading, all!

Howdy, Christina!

I drew you and I'm picking Darcy's Melody by Jen Redlarczyk. I'm feeling musical. LOL

Hi, Janalyn! Oh, several of these look fascinating! But since I have to choose just one, how about The Mist of Her Memory? September is almost October, and October has Halloween, so a gothic suspense seems like just the thing!

Thanks, Sophia! I’m excited to start reading Darcy’s Melody. Today was a musical day for our family (my daughter auditioned for a youth orchestra and will be joining in the fall...yay!), so it’s the perfect pick! ;-)

Hi Sophia!

While not the impossible list of several months ago,
still a very challenging list. At least 3/4 I'd pick but ...how can I not pick Thankful Hearts?

LOL, sorry to tax you like that, Kirk.

Thankful Hearts will be perfect for getting me in the fall mood.

kirk i choose a very mary christmas. i enjoyed and rated it 5 stars. hope you enjoy it too.

Still waiting. anticipating what my next read will be! :)

Sorry for the delay, Patricia. I'm moving right now so things are a bit hectic.

My pick for you is Mr. Darcy of Longbourn. I'll be interested to hear what you think.

Loved it!!! Thank you!! My very review.....Team Mary!!!! And quite a team it was. Separately, while I disapprove of one item in the novella as a specific rule of JAFF....oh well!

pm me. been a while since I read it . what did you disapprove of?

Okay, confession time! I posted the wrong Holidays With Jane for the challenge. I meant to put the Halloween one. LOL
I hope you don't mind that I did my own switch and read the Halloween one, Kirk. :)

It was fun and cute. Loved the Marianne and Brandon story the best, but they were all pretty good.

Hahaha...no problem! Thanksgiving has a fantastic Marianne story too...maybe the best!!!(just enjoyed reliving it in my head!)

Oooh, good to know. :)

Late as usual! Just wanted to say thanks again to Sophia for my September pick, Darcy’s Melody. Finished today. It had been on my list for a while, so thanks for the extra incentive to read it. Happy October to you all!

No worries, Christina!

I missed the challenge deadlnes now and then, too. :) Glad it felt great to finish one that has been setting on the pile for a while. Makes it a double accomplishment beyond getting it read. LOL

finally getting a chance to read my pick. got into new author and been reading her books for a while.

I am almost done with it and am LOVING it! Thank you so much for my pick!

so far, I am rating it 4.5 rounded to 5. couple parts I was unsure, and I wish we see more of the sisters.

Yay, glad you were able to finish your challenge pick and loved it, Patricia!
