88432 I'm doing a book challenge that makes pre-planning books difficult right now but don't worry, I do plan to read more than two books LOL.

Yes! Luckily I got sick *before* challenge started so sleeping all day wasn’t a big deal because I didn’t miss a whole day of reading

I know this is just for fun but is there a rule against connecting our own books? If we finished two in a day and can connect them? 👀 (I didn’t but just in case 😂)

88432 Love this idea!

Shopaholic & Baby (Shopaholic, #5) by Sophie Kinsella connects because it is also set in England. There is a birth in the book. A possible cheating scandal! Sophie Kinsella has written under a pen name as well. The book was published in 2007. Main genre is Chick lit. Main character’s name is an alliteration. Let’s see how we can connect this one! I tried to give a lot of options to choose from.

88432 I just finished But I Love Him by Amanda Grace and before that it was Finding Me A Decade of Darkness, a Life Reclaimed - A Memoir of the Cleveland Kidnappings by Michelle Knight so two extremely heavy and sad books in a row. Reading Shopaholic & Baby (Shopaholic, #5) by Sophie Kinsella now for a light and funny read. I’m trying to stay away from series books right now since they are better for Uno but this one works for another challenge I’m doing

And if we both read it and someone else is interested in reading it, it could also be used as a reverse! I don’t remember seeing any rules that it had to be read before the challenge.

I did look through and compare books with a couple people for the reverse card. It seems like quite a few of us have the same tastes which comes in handy
