Since I had read it wrong I was planning on waiting for everyone else to do theirs and then was gonna choose, but I’ll be going with Score as well. I won’t be doing a full selection post until the morning though as it’s after midnight and I’m way too lazy to get on my computer right now lol

Trio, I got an invitation a few years ago but I never joined cause I'm in Germany and it always seemed to be very complicated/impossible to gift someone else an ebook via amazon.de. :/

Yes, I really don't like it when there is no audiobook available and I can't continue my book while doing household chores, gardening or driving!

I've started the book, and it's a fast reading (around 9 hours) even if I'm slower because English is not my first language

And it's good 😎

Review: This was just some adorable fluffy goodness. I mean, if a book has a Guinea pig wedding in it, you just know it’s going to be good! I did feel a little like the romance wasn’t completely fleshed out, but as I’m someone who loves books that explore family dynamics, it still worked for me

message 425: by Trio (new)

Trio | 2832 comments lol - Score it is 😂 I'm starting it now. It was a crazy day and I was actually finishing Slick which was fantastic! Really low angst, super erotic, and fab dirty talk. Just a lot of fun.

Janeylou | 3052 comments TASK 10 COMPLETION POST..book in same series

Score by A.E. Wasp
332 pgs kindle edition
Men of Hidden Creek -series 1

this was so much better than i was expecting, ill be honest and only picked because of the guinea pig wedding , but that puppet show was just as good ( reminded me of all the puppet shows my girls put on when they were younger )
I really connected with Beau & Connor and was rooting from the go , and kids were great as well.
Just finished the last 20% this morning and im a mess with all the crying i did .
finished 3rd oct
5 stars

Adorable ❤️
Great mix between funny and quite serious moments.
Connor and Beau are a wonderful couple and watching this family find together as a whole was really touching.
The guinea pigs Mac and Cheese were a nice addition to the family. :)

Review: Absolutely adorable. I would never have listened to this one except I needed it for a challenge... well I'm urging you all: do not hesitate to read or listen to it whenever you need a really sweet/sexy/interesting/just plain old excellent story. There's angst, but it's not really between the couple so much as it's in the characters. Wasp does an amazing job building this extensive cast, and the story flows from beginning to end seamlessly. Really, really well done.

Please add your completion date and rating. Thanks!

MountainKat | 32097 comments Since I'm not waiting for corrections - yet, that will be changing, here is Task 11:

43. Read 6 books published in January.

For this task, use the initial publication date to qualify your book. If there is a date listed on the editions page, use that, otherwise I will be looking for the earliest dated English language edition for your qualification. The books you use can be published in any year, but must be initially published in January.

Trio | 2832 comments hi Kat, the info is there, I just didn't leave any space before the review - I bolded it for you (post 434)


message 445: by Trio (new)

Trio | 2832 comments hi guys - I've got a suggestion. Since Kat is (rightfully) going to be requiring complete completion posts I've got an idea:

If I post my selection, then post the completion as a template in the very next message hopefully I'll never miss any of the info.

Is that okay with everyone?

When I actually do complete my book I'll post that it is completed and I've updated the message (I can even put in a link) in our thread.


message 446: by Janeylou (new)

Janeylou | 3052 comments When you say you'll never miss any info ......dont you just copy and paste your selection post , change selection to completion then add a review /finish date/rating ?
Thats what i do and presumed everyone else did


message 447: by Janeylou (new)

Janeylou | 3052 comments But if you want to do it the other way , thats fine by me as long as you let me know as i may miss if we on other page

Trio | 2832 comments okay J, I'll add date completed and rating and just leave them black on my selection posts - hopefully that will help me remember! Thanks, good suggestion xo
