Books selected for this task need to be published in sequential months. The months can cross over from the end of one year to the beginning of the next. You will be using the initial publication date for this task. If there is a date at the top of the editions page, use it. Otherwise I will be looking for the earliest dated English language edition regardless of format for the qualification. Please include the selected dates in your completion posts.
I don't think we were totally set on this one - do we want to do January - April 2020?

I’m good with either 2020 or 2021 as I have quite a few books to read that were released this year
If we want to go with 2021, I’ll take February 2021! 😊

Here is your next task!Task 11 - 66. Read over 1000 pages in books with Mystery or Suspense as MPG.
Books selected for this task need to have 'Mystery' or 'Suspense' as a Main Page Genre. Remember to use the first edition Kindle page count.
I usually try to post here once I post the completion in the other thread but just finished my book right before bed last night so I forgot, sorry Roger! But I did get it posted :)Yay, time for some mysteries! Luckily I have quite a few lined up to read this month already. I’ll start with Murder on the Rocks. Only 266 pages but then I can start another right after I finish it if we still need more pages. I think Michaele has us covered with 600+ pages though so we shouldn’t have to double up on books for this task 😂
Laks, you just need to meet the minimum page requirement for the appropriate MPG mystery/suspence
Good morning everone. Thank you Michaele for the long book. That makes it easier for all of us 😃 . I will see if anything suits from what I have lined up this week

Review : I had read the first book in this series last year and somehow missed getting this one at that time.
It was good going back to Brian and Nick; to see how they are coping together and Brian putting his Finding ability to use. As expected there are plenty of complications ahead for them; the cops and Damon. And I was also glad to see Bry sort of eradicated. Kaje has done a good job unravelling all the threads to finally get a sanctuary for Brian.
A good series with all the good things- action, romance, memorable MCs and paranormal stuff.

I am sorry to say I havent read this author at all , even though he is in my TBR. Its because very few of his books are available in KU....I guess should give him a try sometime then.
if you don't own Galaxies and Oceans by N.R. Walker it is currently on sale for $.99 and a great book. I suggest buying it. htpps://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DZNX1LT?geniusli...

Review: This was quite an enjoyable mystery that had me fairly stumped on who the murderer was. I had multiple theories at different points but things kept spinning in different directions. Not much of a romance plot line but the character is openly gay, he’s just not focusing on romance during the timeline of this book. He does have someone who is interested in having a relationship with him but he’s too focused on his current case to focus on any type of relationship.
