TBR Pile KnockOut (1)

Hi ladies and gents! We're doing something new in 2013 with one of our favorite bloggers! 

We hope yall will join in with us! Check it out below. And no worries, you don't have to be a blogger to participate!!

~~*~~*~~

TBR Pile Knockout is a weekly meme hosted by Ana of Beach Bum Reads and Anna of Herding Cats & Burning Soup. This meme was created to tackle our HUGE and STILL GROWING TBR piles. 

We will be posting EVERY Monday for the rest of the year. Our goal is to make a rather nice dent in our TBR piles. So, aside from our other lovely reads, we will be making sure ONE book out of our TBR pile will be read :) 

Want to join in? Check out the rules:

1. Go to your TBR pile and randomly pick one book off your list!
  • We'll be using random.org to pick our reads.  
  • Type in the number of books in your TBR pile where it says "MAX"  
  • Then click generate and it will give you your randomly selected book!  
  • NOTE: If the book chosen via random.org is part of a series, you can go ahead and read the first book in said series. 
2. Come back here each week (or however often you'd like to join in) and link up your "TBR Pile Knockout" post in the linky below!
Don't know what to write in your post? You can Add the cover for your book, the book summary and details (author, publisher, etc.), you can leave a line or two on how long that book was sitting in your TBR Pile, or just tell us what you think about starting this one! You can always add in a review for your last pick too!

Don't have a blog? You can still join in! Just link in your Goodreads reviews or add link the Amazon/B&N page for the book and leave your thoughts in a comment on this page :)

My pick this week is by Marquita Valentine who we featured here not too long ago. It's the introduction novella to her Holland Springs series and only been on my tbr pile a short time but it was one of the freebies I picked up.

In order to get the attention of Christian Romanov, Hollywood's latest British import and newest bad boy, Zoe Ambrose disguises herself at a masked ball as a woman named Amber.

She has seduction on her mind and Christian is the target.

Christian Romanov, heir to a mineral and oil conglomerate, has chosen acting as his latest insult to his uptight family. Despite excelling at his new profession, it doesn't fill the void in his soul. Then he meets the mysterious Amber at a masked ball and his world is flipped upside down.

    2. Reading one now that's been on my TBR pile. I'll come back Monday and put a link for the review. Is it okay if some of these books were written years ago? My TBR pile is "per-ty" huge. LOL!

    The TBR knock out book will be one weeks book per month.
    So Ana or Anna, if you want me to fill something in somewhere,
    tell me what. Remembering, I am a total techtard....haha

  4. Lol every book I read is one of my TBR. So that sounds like a lot of work, especially as I am a very big mood reader. I pick a genre based on my mood, and then an author.

    1. LOL mine too actually but I figure I'll add one randomly picked one in and get them done. I'm pulling from my ebooks which I never pay attention to. So many freebies and boy do they add up.

      Oh yeah would be much harder if you were a mood reader!
