Team Ira was wondering what sin you used Save the Date for?

Missed this, Vanity I believe

Looks good

With 1 day 6hours to go we have 30 books completed. Great work team.

@Alex how are you getting on with your book?

If you have any books that you are currently reading that will be finished in time please ensure they are posted an hour before deadline to give LaurLa and myself a chance to get them logged.

A reminder with regards to Sins. When allocating a book to a sin we look to go in terms of highest points first:

1️⃣ Cover - Pink; Yellow, Green, Red, Blue, Purple, Brown - worth 5 points

2️⃣ Genre (From 1st page of Shelves) - Historical Romance, Dystopia, Young Adult; Guilty Pleasure; Dark Fantasy; Contemporary; Space Opera - 3 points

3️⃣ Sin Specification - Check first page of thread.

Finally finished this book last night and admittedly the last 1/3rd of the book was a lot better than the rest. I listened to this as opposed to reading, my preferred format, and I do feel that a lot of the detail was lost in the audio version. I did enjoy the humour and the interaction between Gideon and the key players but not enough to continue with the series. Although should I re-Read the kindle edition I may reconsider.

End of Week 2-Start of week 3

Beige is a shade of brown.

This has a top shelf of contemporary.

Does this come across as brown, looks like varying shades of beige?
