We recently told you about the Romanceopoly Reading Challenge hosted by Under the Covers and Peace Love Books. Those ladies put together a great list of recommended reads for each of the properties on the challenge board.
But there were a few times where we found ourselves saying, "But what about this book?" So we wanted to put some of our own recs out there for everyone else participating in the challenge. Or anyone looking for a book rec really. And maybe talk about some of the topics we haven't found books for yet.
(These are our additions to the lists the hosts have already put together so we're not repeating anything from their recs.)

There are a few categories where we're still looking for the right rec. If you have a favorite for any of these, let us know in the comments.
College Row
I thought I had a great idea, but it wound up being set in high school.
I've already read The Game Plan by Kristen Callihan
London Street
I've already read Darkest London, London Steampunk, Iron Seas, Clockwork Dagger
Military Mews
Read a Romantic Suspense with a military hero or heroine:
I've already read Black Knights Inc, The Associates, and some PNR featuring former military heroes.
Cozy Corner
Read a mystery or a cozy mystery:
There's this series called The Vampire Knitting Club that I'm thinking of doing for this prompt but I'm open to other ideas. I've only read one cozy series before and it was just okay for me.
Murder Mill
Read a thriller or a romantic thriller:
I have a couple of ideas for this one, Jane Doe and Zero Sum Game, but this isn't a genre I normally read so tell me your faves.
Women's Ave
Read a Women's Fiction novel:
I wish they would find a better name for this genre. It's just as bad as telling kids there are boy books and girl books. I have no desire to read Nicholas Sparks or anything that was made in to a movie. Anyone have a Chick Lit rec?
