The qualifying page count needs to come from an English language edition. There is an English Kindle edition published in 2008 that has 118 pages. Please update, but no need to repost. 😊

Date 2 - A - Tasks: Breakdown of the qualifications for possible tasks for Date 2.

Please remember that all tags/lists must qualify IN CONTEXT!! Links MUST be provided.

Don't make more work for yourself than necessary - if the qualifier is in the title or on the cover, use it! You don't have to go searching for tags to make it work. 😊 If the link you use for the book is the same you are using for the page count and edition - say so (see above edition or something similar)! That saves us all some steps. But please double check your links!

You may use separate editions of your Scavenger Hunt books to qualify for the different tasks. Links MUST be provided.


A is for Abroad - Read a book set outside the US.

To qualify for this task, the title, series title, précis, book details list or tag would need to indicate that the selected book Is set outside the United States. The setting can be a city, country or region. Remember, I am super picky about combo-tags!


A is for Acclimate - Read a book by a new to you author.

To qualify, the author of the selected book needs to be a new to you author. You can have other books by the selected author on your shelves, but only the one you read for this task can be marked as read. If your profile is private, you will either need to open it for the duration of this task or friend me so that I can confirm your books.


A is for Alibi - Read a Romantic Suspense book.

To qualify for this task, the selected books need to be tagged as 'suspense', alone or combined. The qualification for this task comes from tags/shelves ONLY. 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.


A is for Apple - Read a book with a school setting or one featuring teacher or student.

To qualify, the title, precis, tags or list would need to indicate that the selected book has a school setting or features a teacher or student. Coaches will be allowed in context, that being they are coaching/teaching children up to college age. Professional or adult league coaches will not be allowed.

Kat has answered quite a few questions already in the Q&A thread so head over there if you are looking for answers ;)

Hello! With all the travelling and trying to read my current book, I have not been very active. I am crossing my fingers to finish it and not fall asleep before the deadline (I woke up at 4am to take the flight). Everything went well so now I can relax and read :)

[Gustaf]

I’m honestly amazed that I managed to finish three books while having presentations and exams every day this week 😅

[Aiswrya]

I've finished one and have another one going. I'll post both those completions later today

[Jane (PS), Moderator]

Hi everyone - going forward, can you all please include the broken link for you book at the bottom of each completion post? It saves me a huge amount of time!

eg [*book:Among the Living|5603414]

Simply Add book - select the right edition - click on add - then insert an asterisk immediately after the first square bracket [*

***edit***
Please use the 1st Kindle Edition for the broken link book :)

I finished my book (I managed to go for a short nap earlier) but now I am ready to sleep so many hours!! I just had to finish it because it was so long that I didn't want to waste it. Really enjoyed it! Loved the world-building.
