How it qualifies: MPG Romance and rated 4.28 on GR
I had to search by ASIN to find my book and then type it all out 4 times as I kept getting error messages when pressing post.
I did read it was messed up when searching. Then I was able to use it and five minutes later it was gone again.
Yeah the search when adding books is being sketchy. If you search with the ASIN, it usually works. Getting errors when posting is usually that the page has been open too long without reloading. GR can be really frustrating with that - sometimes too long is 1 or 2 minutes and sometimes I can post something hours after the page was last reloaded. 😡🤷🏻♀️

🌹The Bachelor Team Challenge - Round 5🌹🌹Theme - Quarantine Dating🌹
Date 8 - R - FINAL DATE!!
R is for Razor - Read a book with a clean-shaven model on the cover.
To qualify, the cover of the selected book needs to show a clean-shaven ADULT MALE model on the cover. There can be no facial hair - no beard, no mustache, no obvious scruff or 5 o'clock shadow. The cover does not need to show the entire head of the male model, but it has to show from the nose down at a minimum, basically the area that would have facial hair. The area from the nose down of the face must be visible in the cover. It can not be in shadows or a silhouette. You can use any edition of the book to qualify for this task. Please include the qualifying cover in your completion posts. If you have any questions please ask BEFORE you read the book!.
Remember books must be 90 pages (first edition English language Kindle) and MPG Romance!!
You have until Friday, February 12 @ Midnight US EDT to post your completion(s).
Please ensure that your completion post conforms to message #3 of your team thread. If you complete more than one book for the date task, be sure to include that information in your completion post. Remember no discussion in your completion posts! I will not be correcting any completion posts, but will be checking the threads. If they are missing elements and are not corrected/reposted, they will not count. Teammates, help each other out! Double check for qualifiers, MPG romance, page count and that all info is in all completion posts! PLEASE, include that your post is a repost when making corrections and don't forget which book number it is for you!!
*🌹*BONUS ULTIMATE SCAVENGER HUNT ROSES AVAILBLE FOR THIS DATE!!*🌹*

To make a claim for the Ultimate Scavenger Hunt Rose, post in the Scavenger Hunt thread with all the required information. Each successful claim will earn your team 5 bonus roses!!
Traditional Scavenger Hunt Roses are available as usual, using all the possible task requirements for R - Rah-Rah, Razor, Rift and Rome.
Notice for the final week:
This week, I will not be correcting any completion posts, but will be checking the threads. If the completions are incorrect or missing elements and are not corrected/reposted, the book will not count. Teammates, help each other out! Double check for qualifiers, MPG romance, page count and that all info is in all completion posts! Because I will be checking the threads, please repost all corrections even though I am not the one requesting them! I will be counting books with links to an different page count as long as there is a matching page count to what was posted, but please be nice to me and double check your links! If the page count you list is not found on the book, your book will not be counted. PLEASE, include that your post is a repost when making corrections and don't forget which book number it is for you!!
In the Scavenger Hunt thread, I will only be listing the claims that are complete. The first complete post for any book will claim it. If the book doesn't qualify, I will still comment stating so. Follow the dots here - if the book is listed, all is good. If the book isn't listed, but I didn't comment, something is wrong/missing in your completion post - and the book can be claimed by another participant.
I will only be answering questions in the Q&A or Scavenger Hunt threads! If you want a quicker response, post in the Q&A thread.
