This wasn't my favourite.. but I still love the BDB. This is the end of an arc so a bit of a twist at the end.

Great going gals getting the DQ's. Once I'm back next month I'll be volunteering for some DQ's as well, and I think I may have some tokens left for extra entries.

I know, Sally. I had booked our hotel last year but with all the covid kerfuffle and trying to get money back last time we tried to go, I just did with a fixed price but depending on the exchange rate on the day and free cancellation up to 24 hours before. When we changed our plans and I tried to modify to 2 days instead of 3 it was more expensive for the 2 days than our original booking of 3 days, so I just left it and told them we'd be arriving in the morning instead of the night before. The prices in Central London at the moment are unreal. Leaving tomorrow.. usual excited nerves.

Sounds like the scenario in houses all over Australia, LOL.

I'm missing the Coronation by a week but my travelling buddy is there now, said the streets are crowded but the atmosphere is buzzing.

Oh I missed that this..."

I liked it but then I'm a J R Ward fan. She's bought this series back in sync with the BDB. But it ends on quite a few unresolved issues so I hope Book 3 isn't too far away.

Manman Duck is done.

Hi Juliana,

It stands for Main Page Genre. If you look on the book's first page there will be a list of Genres that most people have tagged the book. This is where you find it.

I just finished that one! Enjoying the series, it was very sad that Lucinda Riley passed away in 2021. Her son collaborated with her so the final book in the series could complete her vision.. , I think it's out this month. With a character named Electra (winner's tower) it's perfect for this Challenge. Hope you enjoy it too.
