Wow everyone is picking the same stories.

Room 438- I like the plot.

Ice Cold Blood- haven't read a BSB vampire story in a while.

It Stays with You-  I've heard good things about this story

If you need someone else to read Mare, I'm up for it.

I do have 3 weeks off this Friday but I'm going to Belgium for one week at Saturday so I don't know if I have a lot of time for 1 story let alone 2 (if the weather sucks, I'll be spending a lot of time inside = reading time lol) and in two weeks I'm going on holiday again so same story. I will read when I have some free time so it's not like I won't try to make time lol. But if the 2nd story isn't too long, then sure! Even if it's not on my list. :)

It might sound weird but I'm sure I have more time when I go back to work than on my 3 weeks off LOL

Okay, here are my choices, but I'm willing to read anything if there's something that hasn't been challenged that I missed, as long as they haven't already read mine.


My Answer is You - I've never checked this story out, and it's been a long time since I've read a good Brian romance.  I may be a Brian girl, but I don't read a lot of romance, period.

Sinister Devotion - I don't read a lot of AU, and I don't usually like stories where the Boys are not themselves, so this is outside my comfort zone, but I've heard a lot of great things about it too.

October Road - I don't read much AU, and AJ's not my Boy of choice to read about, so both of those things could make this one a challenge for me.

If the story isn't too terribly long, I may be able to do two. I really want to push myself to read more, but football season is coming up with work (but if I get that new job *prays* I won't have to worry with that).
