@Anto5 - I'm going to be starting on your picks shortly, but I have a feeling I might not get them finished until tomorrow. A very quick look at your shelves tells me we have a decent amount in common, so I'm looking forward to diving in deeper!

Diane ~Firefly~ | 1504 comments Tink Magoo

First, I love your name! For as many books as we both have we didn't have too much in common, but we tended to agree when we did. So I hope you like your picks and find something intriguing.

1. June 1st is Global Running Day: Definitely exercise happening in this sports based book from your TBR - Offside by Shay Savage. Or check out this out of shape single mother who learns her destiny is to protect humanity and has to get in shape (with the help of a hunky trainer) to fight in Huntress by Nicole Hamlett

Offside by Shay Savage Huntress (Grace Murphy, #1) by Nicole Hamlett

2. June 2nd is Yell Fudge at Cobras in North America Day: Can't get much more yummy looking that this cover - Stepbrother Master by Ava Jackson. Or enjoy a small town romance while learning more about the Cupcakes Lover's Club with Fool for Love by Beth Ciotta.

Stepbrother Master by Ava Jackson Fool for Love (Cupcake Lovers, #1) by Beth Ciotta

3. June 8th is Upsy Daisy Day: There is a happy ending with both these book. First is the amazing dragon shifter romance by Thea Harrison - Dragon Bound. Second adds more humor with The Gamble by Kristen Ashley

Dragon Bound (Elder Races, #1) by Thea Harrison The Gamble (Colorado Mountain, #1) by Kristen Ashley

4. June 12th is Superman Day: Poison Study by Maria V. Snyder was on your TBR and is one of the few books I gave 5 stars. Learning the ins and outs of poison tasting was fascinating and the story and characters were also great. Or check out the start of a YA trilogy where the MC is a thief in an interesting world where the city is basically run by different mob-type families who tend to have powers to "protect" the normal from the monsters. Cold Burn of Magic by Jennifer Estep

Poison Study (Study, #1) by Maria V. Snyder Cold Burn of Magic (Black Blade, #1) by Jennifer Estep

Licked (L.A. Liaisons, #1) by Brooke Blaine Welcome to Temptation (Dempseys, #1) by Jennifer Crusie

6. June 24th is International Fairy Day: Well there is plenty of magic and demons in Kindling the Moon by Jenn Bennett and excellent series that only has 4 books total. Or check out the whimsical story of My Life at the M.B.R.C. by K.M. Shea

Kindling the Moon (Arcadia Bell, #1) by Jenn Bennett My Life at the M.B.R.C. (Magical Beings' Rehabilitation Center, #1) by K.M. Shea

7. June 28th is International Body Piercing Day: Well Zack by Esther E. Schmidt is looking plenty tattoo'd to qualify. Or check out the strange world where states are run by corporations instead of governments and Nadia is supposed to marry the Chairman's son, who ends up killed and replicated and wanting to solve his own murder in Replica by Jenna Black.

Zack (Areion Fury MC #1) by Esther E. Schmidt Replica (Replica, #1) by Jenna Black

8. June is World Naked Bike Ride Month: Outcast by Adrienne Kriss has a cool cover with a vehicle. And Shane gets started on the getting naked part on the cover of Forgotten Sins which was a very interesting amnesia, secret super soldier book.

Outcast by Adrienne Kress Forgotten Sins (Sin Brothers, #1) by Rebecca Zanetti

Olivera (olivera-mitic) Hi Colleen (Avid Reader, Geek Girl, and Jedi's Mom),

Here are your books:

*Global Running Day- The Hunger Games because there's running involved
*Yell Fudge at Cobras in North America Day - Seduction and Snacks because of the chocolate on the cover and Let it be Me because of the 'yummy' cover
*Upsy Daisy Day - Remember Me? because of the happy and flowery cover, the humor and the happy ending
*Superman Day - Me Before You this was one I gave 5 stars to, and HIGHLY recommend
*Flip Flop Day Beautifully Awake one of the characters is doctor
*International Body Piercing Day - Beautiful Disaster one of the main characters has tattoos
*Naked Bike Ride Month - Winter Chill characters get naked

I hope you'll enjoy the book(s) you pick! :)

Thank you so much for the picks. There were a few books that you chose that were later in the series then I currently am at. The shelf I got you to choose from isn't super organized so its all good.

The Friend Zone (Game On, #2) by Kristen Callihan is actually book #2 so instead I may read The Hook Up (Game On, #1) by Kristen Callihan

Heart of Obsidian (Psy-Changeling, #12) by Nalini Singh is actually book #12 in the series, so instead I may read Slave to Sensation (Psy-Changeling, #1) by Nalini Singh

Breaking Point (I-Team, #5) by Pamela Clare is actually book #5 so I may read Extreme Exposure (I-Team, #1) by Pamela Clare

Bleeding Love (Hope Town, #2) by Harper Sloan is actually book #2 so I may read Unexpected Fate (Hope Town, #1) by Harper Sloan

I've Got Your Number by Sophie Kinsella is actually the next book I am reading for the end of May! I am reading it for another challenge.

I don't know if this is what I should do or if there should be repicks done. Either way is fine with me :)

Thanks again for the picks!!!
