Yes it is, but in this challenge 'Baker's Dozen' is only the name of the bonus level. I was just using number related terms or expressions when naming the levels. =)

A question:
A Season Of The Heart: Rocky Mountain Christmas / The Christmas Gifts / The Christmas Charm

What is the title of this one?? 5 words? On the cover it only shows A Season Of The Heart.

[Samantha]

JoAnne wrote: "A question:
[book:A Season Of The Heart: Rocky Mountain Christmas / The Christmas Gift..."

I would count it as five words.

Well, this is an odd one. The rules say if the subtitle shows on GR, then the subtitle counts, but one of the editions doesn't use the subtitle, so if you were reading that one it wouldn't be an issue. There is no specification that you have to use the edition you read, so I think you could use either 5 or 14 for that one. Up to you. =)

Romance Readers Reading Challenges
By the Numbers Quarterly Challenge, Dec. 15, 2017 - March 14, 2018
Duration: December 15, 2017 through March 14, 2018

Progress: 48 out of 35 [The Seven Year Itch - Complete any seven numbers. (35 Books)]

Welcome to the Quarterly Challenge where we are counting up the words in our book titles. For this challenge, ALL words count! Also, ampersands, abbreviations, single letters or numerals count as words. Hyphenated words count as one word. Subtitles also count in the word total, if it shows as the title on GR. So:

Ryker - 1 word
RoomHate - 1 word
Stuck-Up Suit - 2 words
A to Z - 3 words
Magic & Mistletoe - 3 words
The V Card - 3 words
A Quick Bite - 3 words
Red Dirt Heart 2 - 4 words
Hottie Scotty and Mr. Porter - 5 words
10 Ways To Steal Your Lover - 6 words
An Offer From A Gentleman: The Epilogue II - 8 words

To complete a number in this challenge, you need to read five books with that number of words in the title. There is no minimum page count for this challenge, rereads and audiobooks are allowed. You must preselect your goal, but are free to increase if your reading time allows. You do not need to preselect the specific numbers you plan to complete, just which level.

You can use any book you read, but to make them count you need to get enough of the same number word titles! The only difference between the any number levels and the any number in sequence levels is that the numbers you use have to be in order. For example, finishing 2, 3 and 5 would complete Three's a Crowd, but to complete The Third Degree you would have to complete numbers 2, 3 and 4 because they are in order.

You are free to update your initial post throughout the challenge, but please repost upon completion! It helps the host acknowledge completions and everyone loves to see what others are reading too!

Thanks. Yeah most of them were really, really good!

I completed my challenge ... Two’s Company! Message 47, 10 books.

I feel like a slacker after seeing the sheer number of books being read in this challenge! I’m thinking I need to look through what everyone read and get some new authors and books to add to my overflowing shelves! Congratulations to all!

[MountainKat, Moderator]

Yay Teresa!!

And that is the dangerous part of challenges - all the new books and authors you discover!
