Yes, I do


message 53: by Thereadingbell (new)

Thereadingbell | 258 comments I read all kinds of things and I am only a stickler when women write MM because they write it like a fantasy where men write it like it is meant to be written. If that makes sense.

Aoife | 690 comments Task: read a book with a blue or yellow cover
Book: The Charmed Life of Alex Moore
Page numbers: 416 (Kindle GR Page)

Qualification: cover is mostly blue (and yellow) The Charmed Life of Alex Moore by Molly Flatt
Date finished: 14/04
Rating: 3.5/5
Review: Full review

Not what I was expecting at all from the blurb. An odd but enjoyable read but it felt as if the author didn't know how to finish off the story. Some parts felt dragged out and others rushed.

Review

think i just found my new addictive book series and its taken long enough... Keira Cass paints an amazing picture of the image personality and traits of each character you really feel you know them... the book pulls you in at the first chapter and only gets better.... Loved the main character, she is so believable and real! If you liked the hunger games you will love this!!!! Going now got a new book i want to get lost in.

MountainKat | 31598 comments I am not waiting for corrections, though I will be later in the challenge. So, here is your next task!

Task 2 - 4. Read 4 books tagged/shelved as PNR or fantasy.

To qualify for this task the selected books need to be tagged as ‘PNR’, ‘paranormal romance’, ‘paranormal’ or ‘fantasy’. Tags are the only qualifier for this task. Please include a link to the top shelves page of your qualifying tag in your completion post, also include the qualifying tag, the top shelves page number and the number of tags. If the tag is MPG, just say that it is as your qualifier.

I'm good with worst pace scenario!!


message 92: by Aoife (new)

Aoife | 690 comments I think Pawsitively Poisonous fits for the challenge?? Fantasy and paranormal are both on the main page for genres.

If not Damien's Dilemma will be my choice!!
