Okay that's fine. And if anyone needs help or wants to trade, let me know!
Thank you Book :)

[Aly]

NP. I might look at what you have and see what I can trade. None of the immediate books I'm reading work for most of mine. :)

Sweet, thanks Felicia!

[Aly]

Jennifer, I took your enemies to lovers since I had a book ready that fit.

[Anna 'Bookbuyer']

So the bold ones are ones I need to trade. I will bold the other ones I can do.

[Aly]

I'm going to post books I'm thinking for my categories here to keep track of them:
Art on cover:

[Aly]

You want to read the bold ones? Or those are ones people don't want?

[Anna 'Bookbuyer']

The bold ones under my name are to trade. The bold ones under other people's name are ones I already have a book for.

[Anna 'Bookbuyer']

I'm pretty sure I can do art. I read I think this will count?

[Anna 'Bookbuyer']

So I have

Bone Crossed should work for military officer.

Half Blood Prince should work for 50% green cover

and Deathly Hallows should work for ART?

[Anna 'Bookbuyer']

Okay so some were already taken so let me randomize again. Sorry for the confusion.

[Aly]

Thanks Jennifer! I've been MIA this weekend, lots going on! But I'm back :)

[Donna]

My alerts haven't been working the last few days but I did check last night and saw my assigned task. I think I found 3 books to fit. Now I just have to read them.


6. Message Alaina and ask for a book to read (ask for a certain genre and if you want YA/NA/ADULT ) V Games
5. Title that rhymes (ex. Amanda/Miranda by Richard Peck, One, Two, Buckle My Shoeby Agatha Christie, etc.) (wanted Amanda/Maranda but can't get it quickly) Four to Score
5. Published from the year you were bornBeauty: A Retelling of the Story of Beauty and the Beast published 1978

I am getting old. There were very few books I wanted to read from the year I was born. There were 2 that I really wanted to read but weren't available on my memberships or the library.

[Aly]

Those are great Donna. I think V Games sounds really good.

[Donna]

I got the book in 2017 and never got around to it so I am glad Alaina recommended it.

[Aly]

Nice you already had it!

[Aly]

Jennifer, I have a MPG Historical Fiction I can post if you want?
And a war/military book also

[Saige]

I can do one for the LGBT tag. It'll probably be done by the end of the week

[Jennifer]

Go for it Aly!

[Aly]

Thanks!

[Aly]

I posted those reviews :)

[Donna]

I am done with my assigned tasks. If anyone needs help completing one of their tasks, let me know.

[Anna 'Bookbuyer']

Do you want to take my 5. Message Felicia and ask for a book to read (ask for a certain genre and if you want YA/NA/ADULT)?

[Donna]

Sure, I will send her a message now and hopefully start reading soon.

[Aly]

Jennifer, I have a book with 2 authors done if you aren't reading one

[Saige]

Hey! Here is my shelf for books I plan to read in May, if anyone wants to BR. It's not a full list though, so if people want to BR something else I'm totally up for that!
https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...

[Jennifer]

Donna, feel free to take on any of my tasks. I think the only one I have planned is 2 authors.

[Jennifer]

Aly, just saw your message - if you have a 2 author done, go ahead and take it. Mine isn’t planned for another week.

[Donna]

Jennifer wrote: "Donna, feel free to take on any of my tasks. I think the only one I have planned is 2 authors."

Ok, while I am waiting on Felicia, I have a book with a winter scene I will read now.

[Aly]

Thanks! At this rate, we'll be on round 2 pretty soon :)

[Aly]

I'm starting my book by a 1 name author today.
Donna (or anyone else) if you read a book in one of my categories, feel free to use it. Just let me know so I can read something else.
