Yay, I'll be doing the Mort BOM.

That was me with the legendary characters task. I just put the name of the character in the spot where the task description was because it had a question mark.

I've got Mort which I will start reading this weekend. I'm also reading and which both have full moons prominent on the cover. So might work for E6.

Thank you to whoever listed the justifications for the tasks! Would you like a bit more info? For example, one is for a neurodiverse character do i need to explain how they are neurodiverse? Or is it just enough to claim it so?

Thanks Megan, that helps. Even though I read the instructions I didn't catch the MPG bit and therefore didn't realise we could be rather broad in our approach. I was literally still stuck on covers. I'll have a look at mine again.

Yay another one. was pretty decent. If anyone has this one on their lists, I highly recommend.

I'm finding it really hard to narrow down just five tasks. I'm trying to pick the least common or possibly harder ones to use but it's kind of hard to say.

If anyone has The Pull of the Stars on their tbr, I recommend it. Every time I see the timepiece/watch task I think of it. It's a quick and good read.

Is that the one where she gets kidnapped? I know that the bond gets broken or goes silent but I don't really remember more.

Wow moving to Spain, sunny sunny Spain. How exciting. Where are you moving from?

Which one was your favourite?

Congrats, Keli! The Mercy Thompson series is one of my favorites."

Thank you. It's such a good series. I thought I'd reread it before I got Smoke Bitten

Yay finished my first book for the challenge.

Yay!!!!

Woo-hoo I have finally read a book I bought 13 years ago! Every year since the purchase, I had intended to read it and every year I had put it off and been slightly disappointed with myself. But there will be no more slight self-flagellation because I have crossed The Seal Wife off my list. Sadly, it wasn't as good as I had hoped. On to the next.

I read My Sister, the Serial Killer and really enjoyed it. I listened to the audio and I can highly recommend.

I also removed a book from 2016 off. I started to read The Key to Creation, the third of the trilogy and I couldn't gey past the recap. It's not a small book and I just couldn't be bothered. So onward to better books for me.

I didn't know how many to recommend, so i just recommended all the four and five star books I've read so far this year.

I recommend
Fantasy

Historical Fiction

Contemporary

Memoir

Romance
Anything by Ilona Andrews or Penny Reid

Hi all. I'm a Texan now living in England. I have a 20 year old daughter and a 12 year old Jack Russell. I'm on at various times but regularly. I'm trying to read a book every three days but defo five.

Also, my friend request question is from Monty Python's Holy Grail. One of my favourite movies.

I know it's so hard cos they're all shiny and new. I've been really lucky this year with the books I have read, they were worth the wait. But given a choice between new or one I've passed up for 3, 4, 5 years now, I inevitably pick new. I am definitely going to read The Seal Wife this month as it's been in my pile since the start of the year and i kerp bumping it.

I was doing so well but I've not had a chance to read an old tbr book yet. I've been reading just all recently added books. Though I have been reminded to carry on with The Edge series. I'm up to Fate's Edge, too. I do have two for this challenge slated but will I actually get to them 🤷‍♀️
