Thanks for your patience with me!"Hey Sandy...no worries...I'm just the opposite...nothing but reading to do this last week. I'm actually going to work most of the day today...so won't have much time to read...hopefully the next task is 'easy'.
SandyL wrote: "I'm so sorry it took me so long to finish my book!!! I'm hoping things slow down a bit at work now. Thanks for your patience with me!"No problem, Sandy! We completely understand. You have reminded me that I still need to do my taxes. I procrastinate in doing them every year even though I get a refund.
Here is Task 3:41. Read a minimum of 1200 pages in books with one word titles.
Remember to use the Kindle page count!
I'll be reading Railsea which is 384 pages. It is YA so shouldn't take me too long to finish *fingers crossed*!
I plan to read Flawless, 304 pages.We have a total of 1,054 pages so far (384+366+304).
Tammie, I think we have to use the Kindle page count for everything in this challenge and the Kindle edition of Inappropriate is 366 pages.
Sandy, your book just needs to be a one word title with a Kindle page count of at least 150 pages, since that is the page count minimum for this challenge, and we will reach the 1,200 total.

Tammie, please change your book link to the Kindle edition. Thanks!
Can everyone please edit your completion posts to include a link to the teammate's read shelf and the rating? This was at the end of MountainKat's post above:"Please provide a link to the teammate's read shelf with date read and rating for your qualification."
I didn't notice it either.
Thanks!

Posted the check-in for task 33. Next task will be posted on Wednesday.
Here is Task 5:54. Read a minimum of 1200 pages in books of the same sub-genre, but by different authors.
First choose your sub-genre and then make sure you all read different authors. Remember to use the Kindle edition page count!
Did we decide which sub-genre to read?I'm open to reading anything - here are a few suggestions: Contemporary, Historical, Paranormal
We talked about 'contemporary' but I'm not sure it wasn't for something else...I've got a contemporary q'd up for another challenge and would love to read that if OK with everyone. My author is Jasinda Wilder...https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3... ... 354 pgs. I plan to start this tomorrow but can defer and read something else if it's preferred. I've got just about everything on hand.
We have to read 1200 pages...so we might need a 5th book depending...
I guess it needs to be listed as a 'sub' not just by itself. The one I'm thinking of is listed as both...if we go with Contemp...could someone verify the one I listed above is OK...I'll be back in a few hours to check in again
Contemporary works for me as well! I'm at work right now but will post my pick later.Tammie, I would say that your books qualifies as a subgenre

I don't think it has to be listed as Romance > Contemporary Romance on the main page, it just needs to fit in the sub-genre category.
