And the Gansetts... perfect comfort read for everytime :-)
I'm also going to go with
from Stacie's shelf.Mostly because it's on KU and not part of a series (yet). And tagged humor so hopefully not too tense and angsty. Can't handle that right now!
It wasn't super tense or angsty I don't think. The banter was good and there's some women's empowerment stuff from what I remember. I don't like a lot of tension and angst usually so I think you're okay!

You all had favorites shelves?! 😮 Well, that made this easy! 😂Here is your next task:
63. Read over 1000 pages in books that start with the same letter (no articles), teams decide letter.
Select a letter as a team and then choose your books - remember to disregard articles! Also remember to use the first edition Kindle page count.
I could do either. I have an S with 500+ pages
S works with me have a meet and greet to get out of the way.So S is our letter.
OH! sorry I missed the new task coming out. So S is our letter? T would have been easier but that's on me for being MIA for a day. Hmm. Dangit, I actually have to dig a little for S. Imagine that - having to search for an S.
Might be Saturday at this rate for me.
