The Amazing Race Team Challenge - Grim Reapers (12)
I've started mine as well, I have way too many book half read... they aren't interesting enough...

Does there have to be a certain amount of tags?
Chris wrote: "I've started mine as well, I have way too many book half read... they aren't interesting enough..."If this ever happens, and I’m over halfway I tend to skim and scan the book

If it’s tagged ‘Dark Romance’ would that be classed as ‘Dark’?

That’s what I thought. I’m going to get a second opinion before I start to read it though :)

Who is reading an extra book this task? I know Tiki is. If anyone needs me to I can :)
I’m still working on my first book - it’s so, so badly written it’s almost funny! I’m hoping to finish it today or tomorrow; definitely before weekend’s end, though!
I think I should ask in the Q&A section because I’m not sure if it’d be classed as the same genre or not.
I’d imagine that would be okay, but I suppose it’s best to get a second opinion!

Even if it's the MPG?
If it’s the MPG, you can just say “MPG Dark”
Also, we might be able to change our sub genre to be “Dark Romance” my book is tagged “Dark” and “Romance” so that should work, right?
Chris wrote: "Also, we might be able to change our sub genre to be “Dark Romance” my book is tagged “Dark” and “Romance” so that should work, right?"Better let it just dark. Mine doesn't have the tag "dark romance" in one.
Oh! Sorry, Chris, I only checked the ones that were currently completed when I suggested that. Okay, hopefully they give it to you, Amelia!
Lol, Amelia, if you ever need an ego boost concerning your name, heroine in the book I’m reading is named “Amelia” and every time she introduces herself, the response is “Beautiful name,” and sometimes, but not always, followed by “for a beautiful girl.” It is a really pretty name, but come on! Every since time?! 🙄🙄🙄
haha, I actually really hated my name for a while but then I found out it was #7 on the prettiest names list and that changed my mind-
I was checking about audio books , I was thinking about giving it a try while I work, usually I have Netflix on the background. Anyway, I did a search and I found this site:
http://www.openculture.com/freeaudiob...
It has many classic books and several the author is the narrator.

Tiki all completion posts have been updated. Guys, if we need another book let me know. I just finished one that has some dark tags, I didn't check it before I started reading it.
I have less than a hundred pages left of the one I was reading and I think Tiki is doing one too. But, I think you should just post it because that way we can get through the tasks quicker :)

When I started reading it, I thought it was just another young adult, bully romance but it's on the darker side, not so dark but still and I checked the tags. Anyway, I'm off to finish shorting out my e-mail! I have 1.950 un-read emails... It needs my attention ASAP!
Chris hasn't finished yet and yes we need one more book.
I have around 70 pages left of the one I’m reading - hopefully I can have it done today :)

Task 7 - Same sub-genre
Half Truths by Claire Contreras
Pages: 372 (GR)
Qualification: tagged “dark” by 5 people
Date Completed: 5/10
Amazing Race Team ChallengeGrim Reapers (12)
Task 7 - Same sub-genre
Book 1: #411
Book 2: #412
Book 3: #413
Book 4: #433
Book 5: #440
Book 6: #442
Here is Task 8:69. Read over 750 pages in books about the same profession, teams decide which profession.
Professions such as law enforcement officer or musician are fine. Just don't try to pass off both a rancher and a chef as in food industry, those just aren't close enough. Remember to use the first edition Kindle edition page count!
Are we going for sex worker? As it was mentioned in the previous msgs?
If we went for sex industry would we be able to get away with sex worker and pornstar etc etc? Maybe it’ll broaden our choices?
Sex worker by definition is someone that works in the sex industry, pornstar,prostitute, strippers etc at least that's who wikipedia defines it.

9. Read 6 books in the same sub-genre, teams decide.
Select your sub-genre and name it in your completion posts. I need to know how your book fits that sub-genre. Is the tag MPG or how many people tagged the book that sub-genre - use that as your qualification.
