Book was re-published years after original release? Our book was originally published in the 80s but our linked book was published in 2005"


Also going to add on:

• scenic word in title (hill, mountain, ocean, etc)
• author initials either K or I
• title starts with A
• book title with at least 3 words but none of the words are longer than 5 letters
• 16 letters in the title
• Authors name ends in a vowel

Why is this so fun. Can we get extra points for having a weird as hell connection?

Also, is anyone planning on reading the book? I looked and my library doesn’t have it and it’s not on scribd

Since I’m doing the Genre of the Month challenge and staying with romance this month, I won’t stray from that and will probably use contemporary but will look into possibly a debut author that I may not have originally planned!

I’m kind of tempted to try to find a book that is 183 pages too

88432 Also got Moderna! I'm feeling much better today, thank you!

88432 I will say though that I 100% do not regret taking it! Going to the gas station today didn't fill me with anxiety for the first time in a year which almost made me cry!

88432 Sorry I've been MIA! I got my second vaccine on Monday and I've had low grade fever symptoms. Haven't been awake much the last couple days but I'm on the mend and should be able to finish my Wild Draw 4 today!

88432 My shift was pushed back to start at 11 instead of 6 so I can help out with the vaccines at work tomorrow. Debating on if I should still wake up at 4 am to start reading 😂

88432 I have two more to read so that should last me up until Sunday night! Starting the month with my colored card so I don’t have to stress about it lol
Jan 26, 2021 03:32PM

88432 I just told my boyfriend "I have 3 challenges starting on the 1st so you won't be seeing me much" 😂
Jan 26, 2021 02:49PM

88432 Oooh it starts right when I wake up for work! So I'll be able to at least start my book near 4 am on Monday

Thank you for the tip on adding the letters to the top of tracking post! I always get annoyed having to switch tabs 17 times to remember all the letters

88432 For any mystery readers- One for the Money and the rest of the series is a great one to read during this challenge.

The books work for all number cards for series, they work for skip, and reverse because I’ve read nearly all of them.

They are quick and pretty funny. Off the top of my head I don’t remember if any of them would work for colored cards but for everything else they are great to pick up
