I am new to this as well but shouldn't we have credit for 3 SH books? Also are we allowed to read a book that someone else has read for just the cover requirement, not for SH?

Thanks, I figured so but thought it best to confirm for sure. I doubt I will be able to find another book that fits all 4 criteria so another SH book is unlikely. I was happy I found the one I did and I stayed up to read it Saturday to ensure I got my completion post in first :)

Since GR doesn't have a Kindle page count edition, you can use the one listed on Amazon. In this case it is 427. Please update and repost. Thanks! (I usually ask for a link to the Amazon listing to check the page count when you use the Amazon book, but in this case I've already checked and it isn't necessary.)

A is for Alibi - Read a Romantic Suspense book.

The tag does not have to be MPG, but the book must be tagged at least once to qualify. Please include a link to the top shelves page of your book's qualifying tag (not to the people who have used that tag or to the shelf for the tag!), the number of tags and the top shelves page number in your completion post. This information helps if the link is broken or if the tag moves as they frequently do..

Serial Dating Roses will be limited to 10 per team for this date. Scavenger Hunt Roses will be limited to 10 per person for this date.
