For this month we are reading: AARDVARK. Lets get started!

Use the books you finish in November to fill out the word, using the first letter of the first word in the title (excluding 'the', 'a' or 'an') or the first letter of the author's name, middle name or surname.

Good luck everyone!

Lauren Smith *sigh*, I've managed every single WoM this year, but this one might defeat me.

No! You CAN do it :)


message 10: by Lauren (new)

Lauren Smith I can. If I do nothing but read and write all month! (I write book reviews). This is going to take some serious commitment. And coffee.


message 11: by Angelique (new)

Angelique (angelique682) I am cheating with a few of mine - quickies ;)
Also do book reviews. I am actually on your list of SA book bloggers (Why I Can't Stop Reading). So anyway - I am using some of my book tour books, and some of the books I am reading for The Jeep Diva.
So yes, it will be tough. Will have some sleepless nights and will be the better for it.


message 12: by Lauren (new)

Lauren Smith Oh yes of course! Sorry, the list is so long now I can't keep track! Sadly most of my review books are not quick reads, and I'm trying to keep up with publishing dates too. I've got a few letters to play around with though; I should pick the shortest and easiest reads I have for those.


message 13: by Angelique (new)

Angelique (angelique682) No worries. It is quite a list to keep up with. :)
Good luck though


message 14: by Lauren (new)

You can't use A Game of Thrones for A. A, The, and An are always ignored in terms of alphabetical order. You can put it under R though (George R.R. Martin).

Ok


message 19: by Angelique (new)

Angelique (angelique682) Now I need a V and a K...
Any suggestions?


Lauren (Sugar & Snark) | 1262 comments Mod
K-Ten Tiny Breaths by K.A. Tucker is very good or anything by Kresley Cole.

V- On of the books in the Divergent series maybe? Or maybe Vain I didn't like it personally but everyone else seemed to :D
Or what about Under the Never Sky by Veronica Rossi
