*fans self* Don't tell my hubcap, Leif! He thinkgs I spend so much time on Goodreads because I love reading :-)

Oh my! What a tart! ROFL! My hubby thinks the same thing! ;)
Tart, trollop, tramp. The three "T"s! LOL! (Me, too!)
The Tart, the trollop and the tramp, sounds like it could be a name of a challenge. This is a romance lover challenge group after all. :)
**snortsnort** True, Carrie!
**hee hee** Okay, something for us Mods to work on.
Guess I'd better add "tease" to those "T"s! LOL!

And trollop is my favorite word!! It has such a great ring to it. One of my daughters fell asleep in a boys bed at school (after being a tad tipsy) and I was joking and called her a trollop. It was sooo funny!
Yes, love the sound of that work, too, Leslie. Like the way it feels on my tongue. And the reaction people have upon hearing it. Don't know why... so much better than the "S" word.

Read a book where a character is a celebrity or is named after a plant/flower or the cover features a plant/flower.
Suggestions:
This Goodreads diva is a retired nurse who is currently remodeling her kitchen and spends any and every spare moment either here with us or with a good book. She sure keeps good company! ;)
Read a book where one of the protagonists works in the health industry or is remodeling a house or read a book that features a house on the cover.
Suggestions:
This international gal can give Carmen Sandiego a run for her money! She's a South American married to an English man with a Scottish name and lives in Australia. She can also whip up a batch of blueberry muffins in the blink of an eye! (ok maybe two eyes...)
Read a book set in Scotland or Australia or South America or read a book by an Australian author or read a book with an English hero.
Suggestions:
This southern belle is the epitome of a Steel Magnolia and with a houseful of princesses and various pets, she puts every ounce of that steel to good use! She also enjoys sewing, reading, and cooking. Her jambalaya recipe is delicious...

Suggestions:
This lucky girl lives in a Caribbean island called Puerto Rico and the beach is never farther than a short drive. She enjoys scrapbooking and taking her 4 y/o son sea shell hunting.

Suggestions:
Who is The RLftCI Online Elf??? This versatile character changes his name with the season, and his pic gives us all something to drool over from time to time. He's courteous, he's proactive and he likes being (a mod) in charge. But who is he really?? An alter ego for one of the mods? A good excuse to post pictures of hot guys? A way for all the mods to edit some posts? And most importantly... is he single??
Read a book from the mystery or suspense genre or features a hot-hot-hottie on the cover.
