Looks like it would, but if I were you I'd get a second opinion or ask Mkat.

I might read the first book in that series, it sounds interesting and like something that I'd read.

message 457: by Chris (new)

Chris | 643 comments also, if anyone wants to read an MC book that will fit the task, there are few I've read you may want to check.


message 458: by Ris (new)

Ris | 485 comments Chris, your book is tagged by two as "stripper," so it qualifies!


message 459: by Chris (new)

Chris | 643 comments great! I didn't check the tags!


message 460: by Ris (new)

Ris | 485 comments And thanks for that list - it really helped!


message 461: by Chris (new)

Chris | 643 comments I've started reading Slade, it has 160 pages.
I'm 10% and there have already been two smutty scenes... I guess that it will be one of those books.


message 462: by Chris (new)

Chris | 643 comments yup, I'm reading porn...
at least it's only 160 pages

Guys when you decide what book you are going to read ,just let us know the page number to check if a more books than 4 are needed.

Milly (purpleglitterypinecone) I can’t remember the exact count but it’s 200 and something for mine :)


message 466: by Chris (new)

MountainKat | 31597 comments Here is your Task 9:

38. Read 6 books with 3 word titles.

Articles count and so do ampersands.


message 479: by Ris (new)

Ris | 485 comments I can read two books for this task!

Especially since it’s both the weekend and I HAVE to read books for the PTP challenge. But if someone else finishes a second book before me, that’s fine too, since I’ll have to have read those books anyways, haha.


message 480: by Milly (new)

Milly (purpleglitterypinecone) I might only be able to read one this task :)


message 481: by Chris (new)

Chris | 643 comments I'll be working tomorrow (usually I don't) and on Sunday as well, but I'll try to read a second one.


message 482: by Milly (new)

Milly (purpleglitterypinecone) I don’t know why I typed a :) earlier when it’s supposed to be :(


message 483: by Ris (new)

Ris | 485 comments I can also try for a third book, too! It’s pretty rainy where I am, so it’s the perfect stay-in-and-read setting! (And my team is out of PTP, sadly)


message 484: by Milly (new)

Milly (purpleglitterypinecone) I’m going to try my hardest to get a book finished, but I might have to pass on this task. I’m having relationship troubles and it’s emotionally draining. I’m not sure whether I’d be able to finish a book :(

I will try my best though :)


message 485: by Milly (new)

Milly (purpleglitterypinecone) I’m currently 20% through my book. I’ll be trying to get my book for PtP finished first as it’s my priority at the moment. But, I’m just feeling emotionally drained today so I’m not sure if my trading pace will be the same as usual :(

Dance with Me by Alexis Daria
Pages: 308 (GR)
Qualification: Three words in title (see above)
Date Completed: 5/16


message 489: by Ris (new)

Ris | 485 comments @Amelia, no worries at all if you have to pass or it takes you longer! Just focus on yourself and your mental health 🤗


message 490: by Chris (new)

Chris | 643 comments Chris are you going to read a second book?

I've started one more but I'm not sure if I'll be able to finish it. I had few friends telling me to not read it and some others believe it's awesome, so I don't know how it will turn out.


message 491: by Milly (new)

Milly (purpleglitterypinecone) I think if I don’t reach 50% of my book by Monday, I’ll use my pass. I wouldn’t want to keep you all waiting so long :(


message 492: by Ris (new)

Ris | 485 comments Yes, I started on a second book and have a third book that also fits the theme. Both are under 300 pages, so they shouldn't take me long at all to read since I still have all of today and tomorrow before I have to head back into work on Monday.

Chris, which book are you reading that's had the mixed reviews?

And no worries, Amelia; hopefully you can achieve some calm this weekend before having to get back into the bustle of the work week. Honestly, I enjoy the tasks portion of challenges (at finding books that fit the theme) more than the winning of the challenges (I've also never even come close to winning a challenge, but you can't miss what you've never had, right? haha)

Chris | 643 comments facing the enemy

I really loved the cover, it reminds me of children of bodom.


message 494: by Chris (new)

Chris | 643 comments unfinished books staying at my currently reading selve, I just don't have the heart to put the on the side.


message 495: by Milly (new)

Milly (purpleglitterypinecone) I understand Chris. I usually enjoy doing challenges because of the tasks. I know I’m not as fast as some readers (the ones who read three books a day - I don’t know how they do it). I aim for around one every two days. I’ve only ever come close to winning a challenge once. I also seem to get more competitive when I’m close to winning. But, sometimes life gets in the way, like it has for me today and I always feel like I’m letting my team down :(

I’ll try my hardest to get a book done because this is such a simple task and I’d rather not have to use my pass. If I don’t finish for a long period of time (around two to three days) I’ll have to pass.

message 500: by Milly (new)

Milly (purpleglitterypinecone) I’m going to try get my book done. So, do you guys mind waiting a bit longer even if you have 6 books? I just don’t want to use my pass on a simple requirement. If it’s taking too long I’ll use it though.
