Yeah I get you, I know loads of people who hate audiobooks and find them more distracting. I usually end up reading one and listening to another at the same time so I know I'm the weird one lol

MountainKat | 31598 comments I'm running slow today but don't want you to wait for your next task. I will check your completions later. 😊

Here is your next task!

Task 9 - 10. Read 4 books by authors who write under more than one name (Nora Roberts/J.D. Robb).

Books selected for this task need to be written by authors who write under more than one name. Authors such as Nora Roberts/J.D. Robb or Jayne Ann Krentz/Amanda Quick/Jayne Castle would work for this task. Please include a link to the author’s profile or website showing both names in your completion posts.

OUCH! I hope the injections help. Knee problems are so not fun! I tried one injection, but had a steroid flare and I've never had one work anyway. I've had both replaced now and got my back fixed too, highly recommended.
