MountainKat | 31552 comments Information required when posting your completion/s:

Task
Book/cover link
Page numbers with source
How book qualified, with links or cover as necessary.

Rating/Review.

There is a 150 page minimum for books, rereads and audios ok. Books may only be used once per player during the challenge. Players may read the same book for a task unless otherwise specified. Books do not have to be romance, but must be fiction.

**For this challenge, use the GR Kindle first edition page count if available. Ebook page count will be acceptable if no Kindle page count available. The acceptability of other page counts will be made on an individual basis**

Please note that a rating is now required in your completion posts! A small review is also welcome. 😊


message 4: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31552 comments I think most of you know each other, at least a little, but feel free to introduce yourself again. Please give any relevant information, especially time zone as that helps know when it is best to communicate. 😊

Please select a team leader to help keep track of where your team is in any given task. And as necessary guide discussions for task decisions. Any teammate can report your completions though.

Remember, it is the team's responsibility to notify the host (me) if a teammate fails to complete the task in a timely manner or otherwise goes missing! I am not checking all the team threads regularly to notice and may only check when notified a task is complete.

PS - If you want to be known as anything other than Team 1, you are free to come up with a team name. 😉

Trip  (shardsofromance) | 2210 comments 93 - Clever mm romance is just a list i found with some cool books on it is all, there just a few suggest lists i found interesting.

53 - For hometown i think Mkat said last time we can use the country or such. So like could be England, Ohio, France or Germany we pick one?

58 - Rrrc is the groups name, what year did you join? It can be found on group home and if go to edit membership it should say at the top.

64 - We can't use Europe or North America as we all from those continents, so we can use anywhere outside them. So like australia or new zealand im probably go for. x
