Elsa Carrion (ecarrion) | 594 comments No problem Marla, I have other books that I have to read this month as well. So exciting, out of town again, I wish I can get away as often as you do, I'm suck in the same rut.

Thanks for my pick and hope you like the ones I selected for you.


message 40: by Marla (last edited Nov 02, 2017 04:56AM) (new)

 Marla | 468 comments Storm (The SYLO Chronicles, #2) by D.J. MacHale and The False Prince (The Ascendance Trilogy #1) by Jennifer A. Nielsen were both great.

I travel much more now than I ever have. Usually, out of town is driving to visit my daughter at college, but in October I went out to California as my sister's guest at a conference and then visited my daughter that just moved to Seattle, WA. All my family lives in Hawaii, so I do get to go there every few years too, now that I have an empty nest. Even though my husband doesn't like to travel, my sister and daughters love to travel. And I'm so lucky that my part-time job is very flexible. So that's enough about me, I hope you had a Happy Halloween.

For November, I pick For the Love of Big Orange (Bluegrass Country #1) by Leta Gail Doerr for you.


message 41: by Elsa (new)

Elsa Carrion (ecarrion) | 594 comments Marla my hubby is the same, he doesn't like to travel but my daughter and I do so when I have extra cash and time we pick where and go. I would love to go to Hawaii one day my granddaughters' other grandmother is there and I would like to take her to visit her. But my love is to travel international. We've been to Italy and Spain and I want to go to France one day saving for that.

Glad you liked your picks. Hope you have a great Thanksgiving.

Here is your pick for November, I hope you have read book one since you have book two in this folder

It Happened One Autumn (Wallflowers, #2) by Lisa Kleypas


message 42: by Marla (new)

 Marla | 468 comments I have read book #1 and really enjoyed it. Thanks for the pick. I am looking forward to it.

Wow, international is very cool, but so expensive. To celebrate my 50th birthday, 3 years ago, my sister and I took a Mediterranean cruise. It was the only time I've been to Europe and might be my only trip but it was spectacular. We started in Venice and ended in Barcelona. I'd like to go to Paris someday. My daughters want to go to Japan.


message 43: by Elsa (new)

Elsa Carrion (ecarrion) | 594 comments finished For the Love of Big Orange (Bluegrass Country #1) by Leta Gail Doerr

I gave it 3 stars


message 44: by Elsa (new)

Elsa Carrion (ecarrion) | 594 comments Man, Marla another year has gone by!! Can you believe it? It's been fun getting to know you. Happy Thanksgiving!!

Will we be doing this again next year?

For now let me give you your selection for December:
At Grave's End (Night Huntress, #3) by Jeaniene Frost (it has snow on the cover lol)


message 45: by Marla (last edited Dec 02, 2017 10:34PM) (new)

 Marla | 468 comments As I was clicking on this link, I couldn't believe that it's been another year. I'm up for 2018 if you are Elsa, I've enjoyed reading what you picked for me this year.

I finished The Hanging Hill (Haunted Mystery, #2) by Chris Grabenstein last month and I'm currently reading It Happened One Autumn (Wallflowers, #2) by Lisa Kleypas .

I pick The Christmas Dog by Melody Carlson for you.

Did you have a nice Thanksgiving? Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

We are busy with the last minute details for my daughter's Dec 23rd wedding. I'm trying to read a bunch of novellas to finish my 2017 quota.


message 46: by Elsa (new)

Elsa Carrion (ecarrion) | 594 comments It's on like Donkey Cong then.

LOL

Here is to looking forward to 2018 with you as my Buddy again!
I'll get the wine and toast for real latter.

Thanks for my pick
but amazon says I don't own it... that's odd.
Can you pick me another one.

oh and I did finished Willa Wicked by Angela M. Hudson it was a happy ending sort of story. Retelling kind of but not really, had characters from a fairy tail and the author mixed it around and put them in the real world. It was fun to read.


message 47: by Marla (last edited Dec 13, 2017 06:48AM) (new)

 Marla | 468 comments I'm sorry, I don't know where I got that book from.

How about the appropriate to my life: My Christmas Fiancé (Love Comes Later, #1) by Serenity Woods

It seems like I randomly pick a book that's not on your list once a year. Sorry...I'll try to do better next year :D


message 48: by Elsa (new)

Elsa Carrion (ecarrion) | 594 comments I definitely got that one.
Thanks Marla.
No worries, we are doing great!
Next year, you mean in three weeks
LOL


message 49: by Marla (new)

 Marla | 468 comments Happy New Year!!

I guess they aren't going to give us a new thread for 2018, so I'll just continue here. I'm going to use the same link as last year.

Your first book for 2018 is *drum roll*... Graceling (Graceling Realm, #1) by Kristin Cashore .

I hope you like it, there were a few things that I didn't care for, but for the most part, I really enjoyed it, but I was unimpressed with the rest of the series.
