Kristen (kristenlees) L is for Labor

Read a book with a blue collar worker, either included in the précis or tagged with blue collar or a word/job that indicates blue collar.


message 262: by Makbeth (new)

Makbeth | 69 comments Ouch this one’s gonna be tough for me.... and what’s a blue collar ???


message 263: by Kristen (new)

Kristen (kristenlees) it's a kind of job - so anyone who works with their hands, kind of? though MKat is allowing other careers too. so think like mechanic, construction worker, plumber, etc. MKat is allowing bartenders, cops and firefighters too.

Think laborer, someone who does physical work that doesn't require advanced education or training. Like a mechanic, construction worker, farmer - that sort of thing.

message 274: by Becky (new)

Becky (fibrobabe) | 1573 comments Don't forget that a tag of 'blue collar' works too, in case you don't want to wade through messages to see if someone else already asked or wait for an official 'yea' or 'nay' on your book.

Eugenia (eugereviews) | 2084 comments Do you need me to add a third book? Just finished one that would qualify. Let me know if it’s needed to reach 8.

Kristen (kristenlees) you can if you want to, but as long as Ferdinanda and Nicole read a book, we will get 3 roses, and if only one of them read a book, we will get 2 :)

It is good, I was between 3.5 and 4 stars, but I think it missed something, I can't put my finger on it.

message 292: by Kristen (new)

Kristen (kristenlees) hey guys, Mkat posted this in the Q&A and I wanted to share it here to make sure we all saw it - when sharing your completion post, make sure you share which edition specifically qualifies. you don't have to read that edition, it just has to be listed.

Please list which edition qualifies your book, i.e. kindle edition, hardcover, mass-market paperback, audio, etc. The edition MUST be listed on GR. You do not have to read this edition, but your chosen book needs to have at least one edition published in October to qualify.
