Aunt Dimity and the Summer King by Nancy Atherton
Pages: 288
Date: 17 Aug
Goal: Read a book with a bicycle on the cover
Current Goals- Read a book where a character's first name starts with the letter Q
- Read a book written by an author who was born in South Africa
- Read a book where a character is a cowboy/cowgirl *new*
- Read a book with a hellhound
- Read a book that is book 10 or more in a series
- Read a book that is in the Amazon 2015 bestsellers (http://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/...)
I am currently reading Trail of Kisses and that should work for the new goal of Character is a cowboy. They are traveling in a wagon train. I don't know what constitutes it being a cowboy or cowgirl.
Check in captain group, but I don't think traveling in wagon train would be enough.Aren't cowboys supposed to be working on ranches and with animals? And in train there were everyone not only cowboys.
Then again, my knowledge about that comes from movies so who knows :)

Just checking. Didn't want you to feel you need to read it for the goal if you don't really want to. :)

There is a captain's group? I don't know where it is.
This is why I think cowboy. They are on an Wagon Train to Denver City and have Oxen, horses, and other animals in the wagon train. And he looks like a cowboy.

I can reread Grisham or Brown if nobody sees anything they'd read.
Mod
Cameron Post does have a cowgirl in it though.
Got audio for Grisham so I'll start it since other book I'm reading doesn't fit a goal.If anyone else gets it before me, at least I'll get page points.
And I'm 2 pages short from whole point! Who ends a book with 498 pages?! What's the problem with nice round number?!
I quite fancied the adult colouring in book from the best sellers list but I'm guessing it wouldn't have enough words to qualify :-)
Mod
You talking about Grisham / The Last Juror? The Last Juror has 505 pages...

Sadly since most editions are under 500 pgs, I've checked page count and it's not enough to jump over that line :(
I have a book with job in the title, I'll make it my next victim. :)
