Thanks Kat. The book I was thinking about is HR but I'm unsure if it's set in the Highlands or if the guy is just Scottish. Oh well...I'll wait until the date is announced to see.

I do know a CR set in the Highlands that would work:
Unbound by Cara McKenna . After all, it's in the "Grizzly Adams: Romance Heroes Who Are Mountain Men" list! :)

Yes.


⚚♆ Cynthia ♆⚚ B is for Backcountry - Read a book with a rural setting such as a ranch, farm or mountains.

For the above task, does all the book need to be set in a rural setting or can it be just part of it?

It doesn't have to be entirely set there, but needs to be enough that you can show it, i.e. tagged or on a list.

Nikitha | 500 comments Hey Kat! Sorry to add to the questions, I just have a quick doubt- the new tasks will be announced on a weekly basis or like in Amazing Race, after the team has finished reading for that task?

New tasks will announced when each date begins on Saturdays at 6 PM EST. You will have until the date ends on the next Friday night at midnight US EST to complete any books for that date.

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 1067 comments Hi Kat, and thank you for this fun challenge again! I love it so much.

Question: may we start to read a book in anticipation of which task we might get or do we have to wait until you call it to even begin reading a book for it?

message 79: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31637 comments A lot of people have checked black covers with me, if I approved a cover kindly include a mention of that in your completion posts. There were too many books for me to remember them all and if they were iffy I wouldn't want to start second guessing myself. Thanks!!

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 1067 comments Suddenly our Internet won’t connect. I’m on my phone with my my Wi-Fi turned off. It’s so frustrating because I was in the middle of making my post in my own private thread to use.when I was finished and our Internet went out. So far my husband can’t figure it out. Of course, I can’t read all the messages on my phone so if y’all don’t hear from me shortly you’ll know why. 😩😩

Annette (nettyb23) | 238 comments In the spirit of the Bachelor, is this book okay? I know it’s black and MPG Romance, but it’s non-fiction. I wasn’t sure if that’s allowed.

D.G. | 4477 comments I need to read this book for another challenge but not sure if any of these covers would qualify as black.

Possuída Pela Noite (Midnight Breed, #8) by Lara Adrian Taken by Midnight (Midnight Breed, #8) by Lara Adrian

You would think that a book with "midnight' in the title should have a black cover in one edition at least!
