Stacia (the 2010 club) (stacia_r) It Had to Be You (Chicago Stars, #1) by Susan Elizabeth Phillips because I keep getting told to read it.


message 7: by Leea (new)

Leea Haha, I love that cover Stacia... I keep hearing about that book, good things at least.


message 8: by Stacia (the 2010 club) (last edited Aug 08, 2011 10:44PM) (new)

Stacia (the 2010 club) (stacia_r) I don't think I like it, but if I had put this one, chances are people wouldn't have known it was the same book.

It Had to Be You (Chicago Stars, #1) by Susan Elizabeth Phillips Actually never mind...that dog looks weirdly posed, like he doesn't belong there. I'll stick with the original cover, haha.

Although, I do like that little whistle necklace on the original cover!


message 9: by Leea (new)

Leea I want those boobs... ha! I guess with a good push up bra I can put these puppies back to there glory days.


Stacia (the 2010 club) (stacia_r) Oh man. I hate how my boobs look without a bra.

Dianne (des03) | 30 comments Okay I just deleted my first suggestion and changed it to Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows. The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society - this is a really good book - I even managed to get my husband to read it and he thought it was very good!

Aroma with Love  | 123 comments I have not joined in September's read, because I couldnt locate a book and wasnt attracted to the plot....

Hopefully I could join Octobers... I might start early though, because I'll travelling in October most likely...


message 38: by Gwennie (new)

Gwennie (blessedwannab) I haven't read September's yet either. I'm shameful.


message 39: by Marcella (new)

Marcella (marcella6) | 886 comments You sure are Wendy considering you are the one organzing the reads. For shame!


message 40: by Gwennie (new)

Gwennie (blessedwannab) Hahaha, I know it's terrible. There's just so many books out there that I'm trying to read. I've not missed any of the others, and the months not up yet.

Marcella (marcella6) | 886 comments Well you have about a week Wendy. Happy reading. I really did love this one although the girls tore up the male lead character.
