Great selection of books you've picked out, I'm still debating whether I should join this or not. Good luck with your challenge.

Daisy Whitney said...

I am totally looking forward to ANNA AND THE BOY MASTERPIECE too! And I can vouch for Suzanne Young's THE NAUGHTY LIST and its sequel SO MANY BOYS. Both are fab! Suz is my critique partner so I get to see her stuff early!

Karen Kincy said...

Ooo, I see OTHER on your list! :)

Oh, yay!! Thank you for adding ANNA AND THE BOY MASTERPIECE to your list. I'm so happy and flattered!

I've had the pleasure of reading Kiersten's Paranormalcy, and it ROCKS — hilarious, romantic, & thrilling. The book world is going to flip out over it next year!

(And I can't wait to get my hands on The Mockingbirds, Sea, and The Naughty List!)
