This is another suggestion that came out of my Annual Theme Poll, so put your thinking caps on to decide how you're going to spin this one. A few options that came to my mind include a book that features friendships, a book that's part of a series featuring a group of friends, the Friends To Lovers trope, or maybe a book recommended to you by a friend.
However if you feel like this month's theme is too much like work 😂, remember that the themes are completely optional. The goal of the challenge has been, and always will be, to read something (anything!) that's been languishing in your mountain range of unread books.
It is certainly not too late to join the Challenge (to be honest it's never too late). You can get more details and get links to the current list of participants on the #TBRChallenge 2024 Information Page.

I cheated a bit and actually read my book at the end of April. I have a bunch of review books for mid-May and took advantage of the slow week to get it in. I picked a buddy cozy mystery that's been on my TBR since 2018. I hope everyone gets a kick out of it!
Ha! I'm pondering my choice still, but the whole "part of a series about a group of friends" was the first one that sprang to mind. A second choice looks to feature friendships prominently, but it's not a romance at all.
We'll see if I manage to choose, read and review that choice by Wednesday.
I might actually be able to give myself more than 24hrs to read my pick this time! I picked Simple Jess by Pamela Morsi for this one because the synopsis had this part in it The last thing widow Althea Winsloe wanted to do was remarry. Unfortunately, her meddlesome mountain neighbors had other plans. So, one autumn night they banded together and gave Althea a shocking ultimatum: She was to find herself a husband by Christmas...or the town would do it for her!
Sounds like friends "helping" her out, lol.
Can't wait to read about everyone's picks!
@WhiskeyInTheJar: Simple Jess is a perennial old-timey romancelandia favorite; it's been on my radar for ages. I look forward to your review!
Jen: That's not cheating - that's being ahead of the curve!
AL: I was thinking "series about a group of friends" but ultimately went with old reliable "friends to lovers."
Whiskey: I'm looking forward to your review! I read Simple Jess a billion years ago (pretty sure pre-blogging) and really loved it. Curious to see if it "holds up."
