Thanks, Julie. :)

Looking at the spreadsheet I am thoroughly confused. How many books do we need to read? One for tomato and one for set in Spain? Do we also have to read a book for the spell-it-out?

I added a possible book for the spell-it-out, set in Spain, and "tomato" so I just need to know which we're doing.

Set in Spain and has "tomato" in it:

I can use this one for either.

Yes Vicky

I can't find any books to do with Spain.

I've found tomatoes in a book though


I added a little table-like thing in th..."

Thanks, Tina.

I assume "tomatoes" is okay for "tomato," right?

Thanks, Ashleigh.

Okay, so do we ALL need to read a book set in Spain and a book that contains the word tomato?

If so, can it be a book we just finished, one we might finish today or tomorrow, or do we need to wait until Sept. 8 or 9? I'm a bit confused...AGAIN. LOL

Finished my book yesterday covering letter O in Costa Rica. I put it on the SS. Is that all I need to do?

The next stop on the SS is for Seville (ES), which is in Spain.

Option 1 -We can either spell-out (SEVILLE or SPAIN). Or read book..."

Well, IF I knew my geography better I would've known that. LOL Thank you, Ashleigh. It helps a lot.

I'm okay with either option.

Erin, that’s awesome!!! I enjoyed playing with everyone on this team. Everyone was so nice and I loved the team cooperation!

Hope to play with you all on other challenges. :)

Thank you. :)

Oh good, thank you!

Eni, my book is posted HERE but for some reason it's not on the books read thread. I added it to the SS and here, so will it not count?

I just posted my last book but don't see it here: The Ghost of You and Me? Did I miss it somehow?

I don't know what any of this means. What/where are the stops? I don't see Spain on our itinerary SS. Am I overlooking it?

Oh, okay, since I'm new to this challenge/team, I'm still playing catch up in the knowing how to play department.

I just finished a book today that can replace Elen's book for Read a book with your favorite romance hero(es)/heroine(s) or your favorite pair (Pair has to be a romantic couple in the book, not just a love interest)

I read Enough by Danielle Norman and it fits quite well.

How it works: Ariel and Kayson (view spoiler)[ fall in love over time after he rescues her from a violent attack. They marry at the end of the book. (hide spoiler)]
