35559 I just finished reading The Will (Magdalene, #1) by Kristen Ashley . So, all different editions have different page # amounts. I just finished the Kindle Edition and on Goodreads and Amazon it says 375 pgs, but it's 572pgs and that's without all the acknowledgments and Prologue for the next book. What should I put on the tracking sheet? The 375 or the 572?

Way to go team, we are crushing it! I can't believe I hit my cap and can't read anymore with you guys till the 17th! Grrr I should have put more books on there but I never had a challenge with a cap. I always over read what I put down for books a month, but again never had a cap put on books.

I was going to ask the same thing. Thanks, Jhmingos for bringing it up again.

35559 For Mini 2 #9: Read a book with an unearthly mode of transportation on the cover (i.e., spaceships allowed)
Would wings count? I have a book with a fallen angel and the guy has wings on the cover. Would that work or no?

35559 For mini 2 #11: Read a book where a character is superstitious or believes in some myth or entity.

After finding her grandmothers Grimoire Sophie believes she is a witch and is set on becoming a witch. There's also Vampires and Werewolves. Would this fit?

35559 Hey all, I'm Jillian and I live in Michigan where I'm patiently waiting for the weather to cooperate so I can hit the beach. I just finished up with UNO and was super excited when I seen that TTs were back. This will be my 4th TT.
I read mostly Romance but love a good thriller or suspense.

🧭Have you discovered any new authors recently that you love?
I started the L.O.R.D.S. series by Shantel Tessier for the UNO challenge and fell in love with the series and author. She is officially close to the top of my faves list.

🧭What book are looking forward to reading during TTXI?
I'm looking forward to diving into the The Fallen Royals series by S. Massery. and the Maura Quinn series by Ashley N. Rostek.

🧭If you could take all the works of 3 authors with you to a desert island, which authors would you choose?
-Kristen Ashley
-Tijan
-Patricia Briggs
