Apoorva  (bookishcrack) | 502 comments I am not big on historical but will go with whatever is decided.


message 353: by Plethora (new)

Plethora (bookworm_r) | 525 comments Who else is in PtP? I know Carmen is. The last call is today.

We could maybe see what fits depending on the call.


Tink Magoo is bad at reviews (tinkmagoo) | 1381 comments I'm in it too and I'm sure I can muster something up for what we decide here

☼♎ Carmen the Bootyshaker Temptress ☼♎ | 2496 comments Oh yeah ptp call and will help with covering both if we can wait for a few hours.


message 357: by Plethora (new)

Plethora (bookworm_r) | 525 comments Well the PtP call wasn't very specific, so we are still open to suggestions.

8. Cold snap - read a book with less than 300 pages

Or Option 2 where we can pick for the team specificied for your team. So I think that will be my option since we can find books with bigger page count.

Ok so what are we going with romance - sub-genre?

Plethora (bookworm_r) | 525 comments Well yea. I have have never used option 2 in all my ptp rounds.

Apoorva  (bookishcrack) | 502 comments I can manage any sub genre except maybe historical 😅 I have a lot of contemporary ones though.

MountainKat | 31599 comments Here is Task 14:

10. Read 4 books tagged/shelved as PNR or fantasy.

The tag does not have to be MPG, but I will be looking for the specific tags of 'PNR', 'paranormal' or 'fantasy' to qualify. Please provide the number of people who tagged the book with your qualifier and the page number of shelves for that tag. Links are appreciated, but not required.
