I'd say either makeover task because it's going to be harder to find books that fulfill that task. I'm swapping one of mine into the makeover task as well. In the middle of reading Eleanor Oliphant, I realized there was a makeover! I was inexplicably delighted by this meager discovery.

It's always hard to know which category to put books in before reading them. But it's usually not a big deal to switch them around :)
I'm leaving Vicious where it is for now, but feel free to move it, if any of you need the spot!

Yes, every category needs 3 books read by 3 different people. The same person can't post two pick for one category.

Should we wait then before we submit reviews for a task? I'm about to finish Eleanor Oliphant in the next hour. I'll write a review but wait for the heads up in case we need to put it in another task.

I think the makeover category won't be that easy anyway, so from my end, go ahead :)
Just put my CR book,
in for the "toilet" one but it could fit a lot of places. I can see that it would work for makeover as well, if people want me to move it there, assuming a magical transformation into a princess contestant from a normal city girl counts - she is transformed into new clothes and her hair becomes different during the scene.

Maybe you can decide when you are finished which category to use it for.
Just a quick question to all of you because I wasn't able to find it on the main thread: Are we allowed to use alternate cover and language versions for this challenge?
(I guess someone in this team knows, so I don't have to bother Alaina)
Mod
Just in case anyone is wondering. I can't line things up well so I strikedthrough the finished books just so I have a better idea of what's finished. :)

for "eyelashes?""Looks good to me! :)
Celia wrote: "Should I use for "eyelashes?""I clearly see eyelashes so looks good to me. :)
If someone needs a spot on the task 'Author's initials are in SHAMPOO', I can move my book to 'Fire on cover' :)

Sorry just seeing this! Gotcha checked in!

Sorry just seeing this! Gotcha checked in! Congrats your whole team is here now!!
I still need to write my review. I just don't have the energy today. I'll write all my reviews when I get into a mini slump.
Close to finishing my second book now. Put it down for eyelash on the cover
I put my current book,
, for "all the letters of BATHROOM in title" in the dropdown for the first riddle. Is this good with everyone? I can move it if need be.
Celia wrote: "I put my current book, , for "all the letters of BATHROOM in title" in the dropdown for the first riddle. Is this good with everyone? I can move it if..."Nice! This is a tough task so I say go ahead.
I'm finished my second book now. I think the next book will be a slumper so I'll probably do my reviews soon.
So I have some early morning chores to do and then I'm going to force myself to sit and write my reviews.

My reading is going okay. I've finished one book, I'm just procrastinating on writing the review 😅The last few days have been a bit hectic because I had some uni projects due, but it should be a lot better from now on :)
Sorry I haven't reviewed the books I've finished, and still getting through a couple others! Will have the finished books reviewed by end of day today and try and finish my others by end of week :)
I’ve written my reviews will post sometime today. :)
Mod
I'll start the Bubble book today

Awesome!
I'm still reading two of my books in the SS. I think I'll be slower over the next week or so. Maybe the whole month. Things have gotten busy.
Mod
I just finished one that works for lipstick and I'm reading another.

I just wanted to take a minute and congratulate you all on doing such a good job on this challenge! You guys are all kicking ass in it and it's making me really happy!! Depending on how you all like this, I can definitely make a different version next year for a two month challenge.
Keep kicking ass guys and enjoy your books!!

Woohoo! Same thinking here!
I agree, it would be so much fun to get through all of the rooms with the additional time!

I also agree. It would be nice to get through more than two rooms.

One Word Title (hopefully you can find one that is 8 letters ONLY)
**Also for "First-aid Kit", The Hunger Games has that in it. I believe twice. It's also a BR and I think free on KU?
I have two reviews to write. Will do that in the next few days.
Wow, hi guys!!! So yeah I'm terrible... it's halfway through the month and I've read a whoping 1 book. -_-So yeah I finished
earlier today and I'm gonna write the review for it shortly.But do you guys think/are okay with me putting it under tissue in text? The word is found at 98% of the book. But let me know what y'all think. If it doesn't work, I can try to fit it for something else.
