Posted my list in message 11! I have Some Girls Bite by Chloe Neill but the actual book on the TBR was the fourth in the series (do not ask why I added that first and the first three a couple months later...�) So I just added the first in the series instead...is that okay?

I had to wait for my new ereader to come in, but now I have it. I started David Copperfield and am wondering why I had that on my list in the first place. But, I have accepted the challenge and will get through it. Just reminds me of being in school and I am 57 years old!!
