Just a heads up everyone! I am on call for a birth that will hopefully happen in the next couple of days. 👶🏻🤞🏼 I have enlisted ~KarenH~ to assign tasks if needed while I am away. I have preselected, with my handy-dandy randomizer, the next tasks for several teams to send her if I am called overnight. So don't be surprised if she posts your next task, or maybe the one after that, instead of me. 😊

81. Read a minimum of 1500 pages in books with a dog/dogs on the cover.

Do words or tattoos count? For example: The word "Dog" is in the title on written on the cover or if the cover model has a tattoo of a dog visible?

The cover needs to represent an actual dog, so a tattoo would not work. The word itself also does not work.

For this task:

Task 7 - 30. Read 6 books with nekkid man chest on the cover.

You can use any edition's cover to qualify for this task. Basically, I’m looking for lots of skin here, minimum of an open shirt on the cover. Please include the qualifying cover in your completion posts.


Do these covers work:

(You can only tell if you look at it up close but there is a semi nekkid man there)
(It does say open shirt works, but not sure if this is enough)

The first one works, the second is barely ok, but still ok. (The second isn't released yet so I am guessing you have an ARC.)

Thanks! I do have an arc, that's okay to use right? I feel like it's been asked before but now I'm questioning lol

Yes, you can use an ARC as long as there is a GR page for the book with the usual info.

For the books by author with a First or last name starting with the first letter of a teammate's screen name we have three team member all starting with L. I advised them that because there are teammates also with an L they could use the L. Did I advise them correctly?

Kat is away today, attending the birth she mentioned a couple of days ago. I can answer this one though, since it came up on my team in a previous round. Yes, you told them correctly - they can use their own initial if someone else on the team also has that initial.

[Roger - president of NBR United -]

thank you.

For wedding /proposal does marriage work if it is in context of getting married.

[Lisa]

If there is no page count for the first edition, can you use the page count from another kindle edition.
Or can we just add the later page count to the first edition.
