Q Mountainkat...want to be sure it's ok...the audio cover for this book has a car in the background...very small...the traditional book cover doesn't show it. Will this work for 'car on cover'?

[Trio]

I'm sorry, I'm sure this has been asked already but for male author it's an author who identifies as male? and is it okay if it is co-authored by a female author?

never mind, I found a book that works :)

Teams 14 and 10 - I just got home from a long foray into town for groceries. 😳 I will get your teams checked after I unwind some and recover. It was actually the hardest trip I've made and I'm sure timing had a lot to do with it, but the hour long chat with my daughter before I left was worth it!

[Milly]

Will work for ‘Dark’ even though it’s tagged ‘Dark Romance’?

It has 3 dark tags

Ahh, yes it does. I must’ve gotten confused as I’m in another challenge which only allows you to use the first column of tags.

Hi Mkat! For task 71. Read 6 books with alliteration in the title or author's name.

Will the book A Dance With Darkness work? You didn’t specifically mention “with” and I’d like to be sure it fits before finishing. Thank you!

Yes, that will work.

[Susan]

I messaged a teammate today or last night (I don't remember when) to see how they were coming on their book and she popped on the thread (Team 21) and said she was going to drop from the team. That only leaves Logan and I left on the team. I would like to still keep playing along. Is there a waiting list that someone can get added to our team by chance? Or can we be a team of 2?

Also we are ready for our next task.

Hi Kat, I have a question re: 62. Read 6 books published in a teammates' birth month, you may not use your own month.

Does this need to be the original publication date, or does any edition's publication date qualify?

It should have been the original publication date, but if I didn't include that when I assigned the task some concessions can be made.

[Lisa]

MK , I just wanted to check this qualifies as title less than 10 letters.
The main GR page has the title listed as Black Lies and Guns 'n boys as the series title.

Yes, that works - I'm only looking for the book title. The series is not included unless the book includes it in the title.

[MountainKat, Moderator]

I'm walking away from my computer for a while. I might check in for questions during the day and I might do completions again tonight. I'm thinking my sanity needs a break. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[Sassafrass]

Take your well-deserved break, MK.

Happy Mother's Day!

Everybody needs a mental health break now and then, doubly so these days. Have a relaxing evening, and a Happy Mother's Day!

You do not need to read the same author, the books just have to be written by two authors.

Thank you! 😊

Thanks Sass and Becky. Definitely hit the wall today and Mother's Day just made it harder. Did have a nice family video chat and it was great to 'see' everyone for a while.

I hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day! 🥰
