Anna, here is your list for your first roll:

The Passage
The Poisonwood Bible
Cinder

OK...message 4 for Lusie and messages 7&8 for Anna still need picks.

For message #7. Anna, here are my picks for you:

- Beartown; because I really enjoyed this book. The writing is so good.
- One Foot Wrong: the cover caught my eye
- The Shell Collector: I like the title

Anna, thank you! I think I'm going to read Lock Every Door because it sounds good. If I'm in the mood for something lighter I'll go for A Curve in the Road in stead. I like it that you picked different genres. Although... The Shadow of the Wind fits the shelf of the month, so I might read that instead. Such hard choices! lol

Bea, thank you! I've been wanting to read His Majesty's Dragon and since it fits the shelf I'll probably go for that one.

My apologies for everyone on this board. I did not have enough brain cells awake and jumped the gun by doing the picks of Anna (post 6) and Lusie (post 3). Please forgive me....

The picks for each board are to be done by the players for that board. Lusie and Anna, if you want other picks for those posts please let your fellow players know. I will sit on my quick fingers or grab a cup of coffee so I don't jump in.

lol Bea. That's okay. I'll keep your picks :)

No worries Bea! I am happy to keep your picks too.

You're very welcome Lusie! Thank you for your picks too. I'm not sure what to choose as all three sound really good.

Thank you to you too Bea! Decisions, decisions....

Lusie, here are picks for your third roll (message #4). Couldn't decide which to pick, so I ordered them by rating and picked the first on each page :)

Some Old Lover's Ghost
After Forever Ends
Major Pettigrew's Last Stand
