What Crystal said, lol, my book was super easy and fast to read. Plus it fit another challenge that I needed to finish before October started. You have plenty of time 😊

I will double check with MKat. I would think not, otherwise things like young adult would be acceptable I'd imagine?!?!

I know this one is going to be a struggle for me. Hoping I can at least find something where the MC has a kid and hopefully tagged as such lol.

Same. I'm just happy I was able to use the book I had next up anyways. I was really stressing I would actually have to read a childrens book lol. It certainly can be difficult and interesting when doing multiple challenges, that's for sure! But hey I like sci-fi, I'm sure we can try to fit one in should we need to for a future task :)

Review: It was very interesting meeting a young Snow and learning how he became the villain we know from the Hunger Games. I wouldn’t mind getting the next chapter as he becomes that villain.

Otherwise I had marked down Gridiron Series for this task. Thoughts?!?!

Ive probably have read it! Lol I lived in the town next to where she lives, my best friend in high school lived in her town so i was pretty hooked on Nora for a long time. I will admit that in the last few years I havent read that many of her books...So i will check them out.

I did find a Dean Koontz book that also fits in another challenge. I will probably read it.
