We Love Lisa Kleypas discussion

               
              ~ All Together Now: An April Group Challenge ~

Can we keep our challenge thread on life support until Brown-Eyed Girl comes out next spring? Let’s hope!!

To do so, we’re going to see if we can all pitch in and spell something.

For April let’s try the words “Shower April with Lisa Kleypas.”

RULES: Only ONE book per person may be submitted. You may reserve your letter now, on a first come, first serve. However, you may change your mind later in the month, just let us know as soon as possible.

Read a book with a title, series name, author’s (first or last name), character (first or last name), that begin with the letter that correspond to letters of the words we have chosen. You may ignore the indefinite and definite articles (a, an, the, etc.).

Example of Spell-It-Out in Post #2 below. If you need to know, here is info on how to Add a Book or Bookcover Link.

Finished Storming the Castle and gave it **** because Wick was a favourite character in A Kiss At Midnight. It was a short book but it kept me in pins and needles wondering how was he going to get his happy ending. Nice to have Kate and Gabriel and their baby in the mist of Wick's story.

Congrats, Elena!

I finished and it was a 4 1/2 stars all the way. Loved it!

I finished my L book - The Seduction of Lady X by Julia London. Either my tastes have changed or her writing has, altho I still give it a strong 3* - maybe even 3.5*. I will still finish her Hadley Green series, tho, so I guess that says something!

Congrats, Cheryl & BJ Rose!
