Sorry, no. It needs to be clearer than that."

That ok! Boundaries are needed.

I have no idea why my links didn’t work in the previous post today.

56. As a team, pick a list with over 100 romance books on it, each member reads a book from that list. No pass for this task.

Task 17

[MountainKat, Moderator]

Hello everyone! Only about 12 hours left in the challenge! 😲

I have to go out and run some errands today, and probably won't be home until early evening (my time). There are a couple of teams that haven't yet received the last task. If your team is one of them and you finish your current task, go ahead and grad the task from another team's thread if you want so you can start. 😊

And if a team hasn’t finished their current task?

Then you can't get the last task, your current task would be your last task. I will be checking all the team threads when the challenge ends. 😊

[MountainKat, Moderator]

Just walked in, a little over 3 hours to go! Remember completions must be posted in your team threads before the challenge ends.

Kat, just to verify... as long as we link the qualifying cover, we don't actually have to state how the book qualifies, correct?

Yes, that is enough.

Team 5 - Last Task complete

OK everyone, I tried but my eyes are too tired to check anymore books! I literally drove all over most of the county today - and mine is a big county! I will post the final standings tomorrow.

Take your time Kat. You have to take care of yourself, we can wait impatiently for the results.
