I am fully rested now! I have an ARC to read that I am starting later once the task is announced that fits two of the possible ones so I am crossing my fingers that it is one of those.

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..
Remember books must be 90 pages (first edition English language Kindle) and MPG Romance!!
You have until Friday, January 1 @ Midnight US EDT to post your completion(s).
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.
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!
Off to read!Anyone up for the speed dating rose?
My ARC works so I am going to start it! It is over 600 pages so it won't work for the speed dating one. However, I have a novella that could work that has 98 pages. Shall I read that first?
I will start a novella now :-) hope to finish before I go to sleep
I’ll read a novella too! Let’s see if we can get the 4 books :)

I need something lighter now after reading the whole trilogy in a bit more than 24 hours. I'm drained.
I won’t be reading a lot the next couple of days and being mostly offline. We have family staying and I am still working until Christmas. But hopefully the Christmas vacation will give me lots of time to relax and read🎄

One book in a series, then 6 months later I might get to the next one. No idea why, but my brain rebels if I keep going... I've only managed the first on in your series above...
