Melanie’s comments from the Challenge Corner group.

Just got this one if anyone wants to read it.

I'll be picking up book 6 in the next week or so.

I'd be up for it"

Great! Do you want to start one this month and one in November? If that works for you, how about these dates?

Oct. 20th
Nov. 8th

Or just let me know when works for you and I can get the threads set up.

I get the book in two weeks so if you want to set up the thread for 10/28.

And we can go ahead and do a series thread =)"

Here's the thread!

series 10/28

https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

An unlucky witch and her know-it-all nemesis must team up in the first of a new, spicy romantic comedy series from USA Today bestselling author Avery Flynn.

Could it possibly get any worse than having absolutely no magical abilities when you’re a member of the most powerful family of witches ever? It used to be that I’d say no, but then I keep getting set up on dates with Gil Connolly whose hotness is only matched by his ego. Seriously. I can’t stand him. Even if I also can’t stop thinking about him (specifically kissing him) but we’re going to pretend I never told you that part.

So yeah, my life isn’t the greatest right now, but then it goes straight to the absolute worst hell when I accidentally make my sister’s spell glitch and curse my whole family. And the only person who can help non-magical me break the spell? You guessed it. Gil the super hot jerk.

Now we have to work together to save my family and outmaneuver some evil-minded nefarious forces bent on world domination. Oh yeah, and we have to do all that while fighting against the attraction building between us because I may not be magical, but what’s happening between Gil and I sure feels like it.

Finished! I really enjoyed this one.

Friday Nov 7th - Saturday Nov 15th: Chapters 28-33

Damn, I wasn't expecting Billy's dad to be the one who was having the affair with Diane. So I was right about the affair at least and that being connected to why Jet was attacked. I was still holding out hope for a miracle for Jet but her actually dying makes sense. Billy confronting his dead and Luke finding out his real father is the one who killed his sister was intense. Luke then killing him was crazy. Overall the ending was so fast-paced, I loved it.

I wonder what Diane's secret is? It's about Luke and no one else knows so my guess is that he's not actually Jet's dad's son. I think she had an affair. Also, guess I was wrong about Luke being the killer but that stuff with Henry was super shady so he was up to no good at least. At this point I'm not sure at all who the killer is.

Finally reading the rest of this one.

Tuesday Nov 4th - Wednesday Nov 5th: Chapters 11-22

Ok so I don't buy the police's theory that JJ was the one who attacked Jet. I just feel like it's too convenient and they're not really looking for a real suspect. Also I feel really bad for Jet with how much she's deteriorating. I keep hoping for a miracle for her but I don't think she's going to get one. At this point I'm still mostly convinced that Luke is the one who attacked her.

I have a two week wait on if you want to read that towards the end of the month."

That's works for me. When does your hold come in? I own a copy of the book so I can set up the thread for whenever you get your copy.

Also did you just want to do the first book or did you want to do the series?

Still planning to pick up book 2 this month.

Planning to read book 7 later sometime next week.

I'm waiting on my library copy to come in but once it does, I will start this.

I am still planning to read this! Just got behind.

Still planning to get to book 3 this month.

I know it's already the 9th of October but I'd like to get some paranormal-ish romances in before the end of the month. Does anyone want to buddy read any of these (last 2 are a series)?

Is anyone interested in buddy reading either of these series? Both are available in Kindle Unlimited.

I just grabbed this one as a Read Now on Netgalley if anyone else gets it and wants to buddy read.

You can count however many pages you read in October for this challenge (as long as you read at least 100 pages in October).

I will likely just add my books to the spreadsheet after I finish them and post them. I don't want to hold on to a spot that someone else may have something for in case I take longer to finish the book than they do.
