oh, I didn't realize that..sort of got ahead of myself when I saw the list lol I'll stay out of the challenge since it's technically closed and wait until next month to participate in whatever the challenge is then.

could I still get rec's for books with asexual rep?

No problem, the reason we do that is because it’s competitive and point based. There are pries etc so we need to keep track of the points. Hope you get some recs and happy reading! :)

Oh you are right. This was the reason the total was 31, even though I remember it was originally 30 total. Sorry for that mess up.

Regardless, there are total 30 prompts and 30 days in June. That was the intended reason for the number 30.

Please use the numbers given here itself.
