Is there a limit to the number of colour bonus per round?I just want to know if I should focus on my black books for the first round, or just for the first couple of books only. thanks
Yoohoo ! Will start
right away :D
only two hours to go before the beginning of the challenge !
I want to start
. But as it is a big High Fantasy I will need a lighter book to read in parallel. But haven't decided yet.
Hi Cynthia ! Welcome :)

I'm glad I checked before deciding on it. Thanks !
Thanks!
Is this black enough? 
Not saying I'm going to read it, I'm just considering options.

That's really neat ! I wanted to continue the series as well this round. I only read the first book. I don't remember all the characters tbh. Do you know if the U-character is already present in book 2?

Horror is not exactly my genre either. But I've heard this book is not too strong on the horror. I even heard someone describe it as cosy horror, if that is even possible.
