Elsa Carrion (ecarrion) | 710 comments In a Holidaze by Christina Lauren This Close to Okay by Leesa Cross-Smith The Wife Upstairs by Rachel Hawkins The Office of Historical Corrections A Novella and Stories by Danielle Evans People Like Her by Ellery Lloyd

Who picked which book this month....and maybe share why you selected it. Also if you have an idea on when you will start reading it, You never know we might accidently start a group read and discussion.

Elsa Carrion (ecarrion) | 710 comments I selected The Wife Upstairs by Rachel Hawkins for this moth and selected a second book White Ivy by Susie Yang not sure what month this was offered, I have to go back and see, so I can go back through the groups discussions and see if anyone else read it.

Brittney Schmidt (schmidtyoushouldread) | 68 comments I picked People Like Her! It should be here by tomorrow so I’ll probably start it right away since I finished Pretty Little Wife on Saturday.


message 4: by Elsa (new)

Elsa Carrion (ecarrion) | 710 comments I just placed the order today, so it will probably take a few weeks to get here. I have a few before I start it, unless some one also selected it and is planning on reading it, I just might move it to the beginning of my reading list.

Nicole G Williams (nicoleg33) | 1 comments My main pick was In a Holidaze and my add ons were Beach Read and The Space Between Worlds. If anyone has read space between worlds, I’d love to hear your thoughts.


message 8: by Kate (new)

Kate | 12 comments Main pick was Office of Historical Corrections with Ready Player Two add-on.

@Nicole - I've read Space Between Worlds. I enjoyed it. One surprise after another. Whenever I knew where the book was going it took a left turn. Very different than any other Sci-Fi book I've read. It was refreshing.


message 9: by Kathleen (new)

Kathleen Moore (doodlesrus) | 2 comments The Wife Upstairs with The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo added on. No idea when I will get to them though. My TBR list is out of control. Reading a winner from 2017 right now. The Hearts Invisible Furies.

Kristin (revolutionaryk) | 2 comments This month I went with: The Half Sister, Chicken Sisters, People Like Her, Legendborn, This Close to Okay, Nightingale, In a Holidaze, the Guinevere Deception


message 11: by ♥ Sandi ❣ (new)

♥ Sandi ❣	I got This Close to Okay This Close to Okay by Leesa Cross-Smith . I wasn't really excited about any of the offers. But last month I passed on any book, so decided I best get something this month. Due to Christmas and a number of family birthdays, both in Dec and then again in Jan, I only got the one book. Usually I do get a second book, but I was frugal this month.

Wow do you have multiple BOTM accounts?
I was under the impression that there was a limit on the number of add ons'?

I got a membership for my daughter but the books offered are not really her taste, so she lets me have her credits.

This month I used her credit and mine. I got the same one you did and I added some.

So this month I have 5 to read.
The Wife Upstairs by Rachel Hawkins This Close to Okay by Leesa Cross-Smith White Ivy by Susie Yang Ready Player Two (Ready Player One, #2) by Ernest Cline The Chicken Sisters by K.J. Dell'Antonia and since I haven't read Ready Player One (Ready Player One, #1) by Ernest Cline I have to read that one first.

I really liked this book. I thought it was an interesting concept and I do love the multiverse theory in general. I liked the characters and I like the way she built the worlds.

My TBR list is also out of control. I have The Hearts Invisible Furies on my list too. I've read The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo though and I loved it. It is probably one of my new favs.

I've heard from several people mention how good The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid it is. I'm going to have to move it up my TBR pile.

Stacey | 1 comments I got In a Holidaze to help get me into a holiday mood. I just haven't been feeling it this year with the pandemic. I started reading it on Monday and so far it's cute.

I recently finished The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo and I absolutely loved it!!! It is definitely a new favorite. It was so different from what I thought it would be!
