Judy (bigfootgal) | 166 comments Congratulations!
I'm getting there - just need to pay more attention to which of the books I'm reading fill a category and get them posted.

Judy

Michelle | 2650 comments I've feel like I've stalled on this challenge.
5⭐
food or flavor
Book club read. And another I can't remember now. Just can't get those.


message 57: by Sharon (new)

Sharon Kallenberger Marzola | 3059 comments I looked through cozy mysteries. There are a ton with food in the title.

Remember the 5 Star is any book you've rated 5 stars.

Sometimes when I'm stuck on a challenge, I look at the lists of other readers in the challenge and see what they've read for the category. I've found some good books that way. Also as Sharon mentioned, the cozy mysteries have a lot of food titles.


message 61: by Robin (new)

Robin (robinmy) | 1389 comments I need an author born in May. I've googled several authors. Most of them do not list their DOB. I can't blame them.

Sandra Hoover (sandrahoover) | 11211 comments Mod
Robin, I don't know if there's anything or anyone on this list you're interested in or not but here's Goodreads list of authors born in May:

Also you can just google "authors born in May" and get several lists.

That helps. A. Lot.
I'm so stingy with my 5* rating as it has to be a book I'll read over. And over, and over. I wish I could say I'd read Desperation in death like that but the subject matter is so tough that I think it will only get reread in a buddy read..

You ladies forget this is the only Mystery series I read. If I do read any its a fluke. But thank you for the suggestion. I actually do read through others challenges to get ideas. But most don't read the same as me.

I had the same problems. I had to check every Author's web page if they had any personal info that included birthdays. And then eventually just Google to get a list of authors born in my month. By accident I found one. Whew

And I just realised Sandra already said the same. But still so you know you weren't the only one struggling finding authors birthdays. Or star sign.

Sharon Kallenberger Marzola | 3059 comments Michelle,

These don't need to be mysteries. It is any book you read.


message 67: by Sandra (new)

Sandra Hoover (sandrahoover) | 11211 comments Mod
Correct, Sharon. Thanks for clarifying.

Thank you Sharon. I'm so greatful for that. I'd be sunkt of that wasn't the case.


message 69: by Michelle (new)

Michelle | 2650 comments I have a question.
7. A bestseller from 2000s
That could be a book from this year?
For some reason I had it in my head it had to be from the first decade of this century. (2000- 2010)

See my brain remembers last year's challenge where it was 1990s and so I was thinking this year the next decade. Funny how my mind works

2022 is in the 2000s so that would be yes.

Congratulations Judy! I agree with you. It is what I like about all the year-long challenges. I find authors that I would never read without them. Some of the authors are now on my 1click list.
