My plans for 2019
Lately, a lot of people asked me if I’ll be organizing another book bingo for 2019. Since I spent about 400 working hours on Lesbian Book Bingo, I need a little break. I might do another one in 2020. For 2019, I have something else planned for readers. I’ll be posting two fun interviews with lesbian fiction and f/f fiction authors each month, and with each interview, there’ll be a giveaway, a discounted book, or a free book. That way, you can try out a new-to-you author—or you can get a book from your favorite authors for free or at a reduced price.

I read “second chances” by MJ Duncan, but all of the books here are awesome!
Nice, I just bought some new books. I love this category.
I read “Poppy Jenkins” and “Erosistable” by Gill McKnight for this square. Two very good books!
Several I’ve read on here and many I want to read! I’d love a copy of Poppy Jenkins
I read KD Williamson’s latest in the Cops and Docs series, Drawing the Line. After a few years apart, the main characters have to see if they can get over the hurt to find their way back to each other.
Well Looks like I Need to read More Books in this category, I have only read two Books. Twice in a life time and the miracle girl
It’s such a shame this is the last time. I wish we could do this all over again.
This category is a personal favorite. You have once again put together a great list. I read A Road Through Mountains and Captain’s Choice for this square.
It’s a shame the bingo is closing in on the end it has been a fun challenge. Thank you for spending all that time on this.
Twice in a Lifetime was awesome, as was A Road Through Mountains. I would love to win a copy of Poppy Jenkins – the description is compelling, and that cover is interesting!
More great reads for this category to add to my read pile. I read Gill McKnight’s ‘Goldenseal’ for this square.
Thank you Jae for making book bingo possible and for all the time you put into it; it’s been so fun to play and to discover new authors and reads along the way. Best wishes to you for the holiday season, the new year and beyond!
Hi everyone !!! :-)
“Actual Stop” (An Agent O’Connor novel – Book 1) by Kara A. MacLeod is the novel I’ve read for this topic …
° Poppy Jenkins by Clare Ashton
° The Art of Us by KL
°The Miracle Girl by T.B. Markinson
I didn’t read any of those books yet, so … ;-)
Good luck all & … Happy Holidays !!!
Greetings from the very sunny Reunion Island … 🌍🌊🌋🏝🌞☔️🌪🌈🦑🐙🦀🐢🦐🐠🐟🐡🐬🦈🐳🐋🦋🐝🐦🦇🌺🌴
Captains Choice was great. I will try a few of the others.
Merry Christmas all!!
Currently reading Shadowboxer by Jessica L Webb ❤️ Former boxer and high school girlfriend meet again
Thank you for hosting the Book Bingo. I enjoyed it.
For this square, I am reading Drawing the Line by KD Williamson
Thanks for putting this together; it’s been a great place to find new titles to read. I’ve read just under half of those listed here, and am intrigued by several of the others. Happy holidays!
I just re-read “Hurricane Days.” But I’ve previously read “Barring Complications,” “When I Knew You,” “A Road Through Mountains,” and “Always Alex.” Happy Holidays! Thanks for hosting book bingo, Jae. It’s been fun reading new authors.
Hi, I have read most of these titles, all were good but Poppy Jenkins is one of my favorite all time books. The Reunion by Susan X Meagher is excellent!
While I’m not in the Bingo running, I have saved all your posts so I can go back and select your recommendations to purchase when in need of my next read. Can’t thank you enough for all your time and effort in 2018.
Happy holidays and I look forward to your new adventure in 2019.
Book Bingo has been a really fun journey, thank you for hosting something that encouraged all of us to hopefully try out new genres!
For this square I had a lot of competition, but ultimately I settled on Waiting in the Wings by Melissa Brayden. It was the first book of hers that I read, and it set me onto reading many more of her books. I’ve also read it multiple times since I picked it up, so that certainly helped my decision!
I read Take My Hand by Missouri Vaughn for this category. I see I have several more suggestions to read next year.
Thank you for all of the work you put into this. I’ve added most that I haven’t read to my shopping list. Perhaps I will complete more bingo cards in 2019 for my own enjoyment.
I read Second Chances by M.J. Duncan for the card. The only one from the list that I have read is At Seventeen. I am looking forward to reading more from the list.
I’m gonna read At Seventeen beautiful Gerri Hill. Jae, thank you so much for running bingo! I’ve thoroughly enjoyed reading all these fabulous books and made me read book outside of my favorite genres!
I can’t believe we’re at the end of Bingo! What a great reading challenge. The extra work couldn’t have been easy. Thank you!!
Thanks for your hard work! Great choices.
Love second-chance romances, so big thanks for the recommendations. Getting Back by Cindy Rizzo is the one i’ll be choosung as love the high school reunion bit, but will be quite busy with the others too. Thanks Jae for all of the hard work this year 🤗
Strawberry Summer by Melissa Brayden was my choice for this square. An awesome book, like all the books of Melissa Brayden.
Thank you for organising the bingo, Jae. I loved to read books in ‘unknown’ categories. Made me aware of alle the great authors in lesbian fiction.
I read Outside the Law by Carsen Taite for this category and it was fantastic. I just finished my card and hopefully I will win the big prize.
I’ll finish my bingo with Captain’s Choice by VK Powell
The Art of Us… I want
For this square I read
Erica Abbott – One Fine Day
Gerri Hill – At Seventeen
Erin Dutton – Capturing Forever
D. Jackson Leigh – Take a Chance
K G MacGregor – Photographs of Claudia
Thank you Jae for all the time and work you put into setting up and running this amazing game. And a big thank you to the authors and publishers who donated to amass such a large volume of prizes. Through this game I’ve discovered authors I hadn’t heard about before or for some reason hadn’t tried before. Many books from your lists have been added to my to-be-read or at least to-be-considered lists and at least one new to me author has joined my favorites list.
Hope you have a good holiday week and a fantastic 2019.
The Miracle Girl by T.B. Markinson Is the book that I decided to read for this spot
Gonna read my copy of The Art of Us by KL Hughes finally got some time to curl up with it
Second Chance Romance is my favorite trope, so I’ve read a crap-ton of books in that category. WLW to mainstream M/F. Low angst comedy to high angst dramafest. Ya girl over here has read it. But, shockingly, there’s one I haven’t yet read, “A Road Through Mountains” by Miranda Macleod, so it’ll fill my final square.
I just recently finished At Seventeen. Great book. Strawberry Summer could apply too. Also a great read.
I just recently finished At Seventeen. Great read, as one expects from Gerri Hill. I’ve read Strawberry Summer, Behind the Pine Curtain, and Hurricane Days which could all qualify. Gotta love a 2nd chance romance! Thanks for putting so much work into this, Jae. Happy Holidays to you and yours.
The only one I’ve read is “A Road Through Mountains” (actually for this square a few months ago) and I really enjoyed the entire trilogy. My fav that was omitted from this list is “Beach Town” by Ann Roberts.
Thanks to Jae for all your hard work in making the Lesbian bingo such a big success, and the authors too for writing such fantastic books
I read twice in a lifetime for card 1. For card 2 I chose Melissa Brayden’s Waiting in the Wings, which was my first lesfic book and which I listened to again this year with completely different ears. It’s a great story.
Book Bingo has been fun and I’ve read books in categories I might not have thought of trying otherwise. I think we all get caught up in treading the same kinds of books over and over—and as enjoyable as that can be, this has been fun and enlightening. Thank you!
