The word is SMAAK. Lets get started!

Use the books you finish in February to fill out the word, using the first letter of the first word in the title (excluding 'the', 'a' or 'an') or the first letter of the author's name, middle name or surname.

Good luck everyone!

Can one book be used for more than one letter? Trying to find something starting with K, and I saw Antjie Krog lurking around. Would that cover A and K?

no, you can't :( In every challenge you can only use a book once. You can use a book in more than one challenge though. So if K is difficult for you use it for the lette K and find another book for the A.

Nice, let me know if you like them. I have been reading quite a few mysteries lately and I am starting to enjoy a whole new genre and I am looking for new ones.

Will do...I recently read One for the Money (Stephanie Plum series) which is a murder/mystery/chic lit - easy read but very enjoyable.

Lauren Smith Bugger, I voted for this word but didn't notice that almost nothing I need to read in February fits the letters :(

S - The Shadow on the Blind by Louisa Baldwin and Letticia Galbraith
M - Midnight Crystal by Jayne Castle
A - Burning Lamp by Amanda Quick
A - Sanditon, the Watsons and lady Susan by Jane Austen
K - Fired Up by Jayne Ann Krentz

Just realised that I read 5 books that I could fit in this challenge.
I don't get to finish many of the word of the month challenges, for some reason my books never seem to fit in, but this month they did. Cool!

COMPLETED

hey there,

I actually haven't gotten very far with this as life kinda took over and reading took a back seat but thought you might like to know you can get the first book of this series for free today on Amazon (Spying in High Heels - Gemma Halliday) then you can make the decision yourself if its your type of read. :)

I know how that can happen. Sometimes I have these great plans for reading and then all kinds of things happen and I wont read page for weeks.

I will definitely check it out. Thanks for the tip!
