Haha, no worries! Copy/paste is wonderful until the extra stuff. :P

Hey Beth, in your first turn post, it says we landed on Mystery?
This turn was a great Thanksgiving present!! Happy Thanksgiving for those that are celebrating, and Happy Thursday for those that aren't! :)

Char, almost any romance will be dual POV, if that helps. I'd offer to swap, but my POV book is stuck behind a few other books already, and I'm hoping one I'm already needing to read will work for Watching. 🤞🏻

Prompt Name / #: Non-Fiction #6
Book: Evil Thing
Author: Serena Valentino
Date Read: 11/27
Pages: 352
Task: Read a book where a character seems cursed.
How it Fits: Cruella believes her earrings are cursed, and attributes her life hardships to the curse

Ah okay, no worries, I will see what I have that works... I think I'm gonna be last again, y'all, I'm sorry. :( This weekend is always nuts for me, so I probably will only be able to read in bed. I'll try to do more, but... yeah... The food, the shopping, the decorating, the wrapping, the cards, it's all the things lol. If I don't get a solid start or get done this weekend, I always find myself behind and I do not like to stress the holidays lol.

Oh okay, I didn't catch that. Hopefully some random books will also be tagged and it can be a surprise for us lol. 🤞🏻

Claire, is that the right book? That appears to be historical fiction.

Oh, I read that. Movie was better. 🤣

Do you both want to read Rogue Protocol for Watching, and get the buddy read? Or do you already have books that work and I should find something else?

Sigh, y'all are on your own for recommendations... If I've read any speculative, it's not much and not memorable lol.

Beth, do you think Rogue Protocol would work for Watching? I still have that waiting for a buddy read lol.

Lol, well, hmm... I'm gonna have to find books I think... Two POV shouldn't be hard, but those other two are headscratchers at the moment. Everyone Is Watching is a good thriller with a reality TV element, so I can recommend it, but I've read it lol.

I was getting worried about doing turns with as many deals as are happening, but basically if it's Base Rent, we pay it; houses, we don't pay if it's to LLD, and we do if it's MM or SFS. This is doable in my brain... 😂

Y'all, MM just landed on Pulitzer Prize, which LLD transformed into a gorgeous revenue generator. ;) We did good!! 👍🏻
