TART Challenge - Round 5 - Snakes on a Plane (14)

[Stacie]

I'm pretty sure it's Romance and then something listed after it based on what other teams have done. So it will need to say Romance -->sub-genre.

I can do contemporary romance, historical romance or fantasy romance.

[Laura]

Okay. I might have to look a little bit more, but I can still do what I said above.

[Stacie]

So to recap so it's all on one page.

Laura: fantasy, contemporary, YA, NA. Or even Sci-Fi.
Stacie: fantasy, contemporary

I think contemporary might be easiest but we'll see what LaurLa and Louise say!

They only display like this on the main page, not on the Top Shelves pages. I'm going to ask MK if Contemporary Romance or Paranormal Romance work for this one, or if they need to be formatted like you showed. I have some newer releases which don't get tagged a lot, so end up with not very many MPGs.

[LaurLa]

Reading this week:


Fate's Edge
Romance > Paranormal Romance
Fantasy > Paranormal
Fantasy > Urban Fantasy
Fantasy > Magic
Paranormal > Shapeshifters

When Summer Comes (currently reading)
Romance > Contemporary Romance
Womens Fiction > Chick Lit
Category Romance > Harlequin
Romance > M F Romance

The Cowboy Wins a Bride
Romance > Contemporary Romance
Womens Fiction > Chick Lit
Romance > Western Romance

MKat says it doesn't have to be formatted like the MPG set-up, so if we go with Contemporary, we just need a Contemporary Romance tag.

I don't think you can use When Summer comes, if you were already reading it when we got the task, right?

Right. Has to be started after we decide.

[Stacie]

Got it. So three votes contemporary (I think). Louise are you okay with that?

[Louise]

I can do contemporary; fantasy; paranormal; historical; sci-fi (at a push)

That’s right it needs to have been started after the task was called

[Stacie]

I think Louise and I posted at the same time. Sounds like we're good with contemporary.

[Laura]

Works for me. I’ll start one as soon as I finish my Dystopia book for Prison Riot.

[LaurLa]

Just FYI, I did actually start reading after the call. I had just started it up when I posted. But I'll read something else if I need to be safe.

Remember to use the first edition Kindle page count.

I am caught up with your team now, only those two corrections from Task 8. 😊

Here is your next task!

Task 10 - 9. Each player reads a book in the same series, teams decide. No pass for this task.

As a team, select a series listed on GR and everyone reads a book in that series. (Does not have to be a numbered series.) Please include the selected series in your completion posts. Teammates can read the same or different books for this task. No pass for this task.

[LaurLa]

Some series I think we've all read or might have interest in


In Death- JD Robb
Mercy Thompson - Patricia Biggs
Argeneau - Lynsay Sands
Women's Murder Club - James Patterson
Amelia Peabody - Elizabeth Peters
Elder Races - Thea Harrison
Gansett Island - Marie Force
Fatal - Marie Force
Wallflowers - Lisa Kleypas
Betwixt & Between - Darynda Jones
Misadventures - Various
Adair Family - Samantha Young

[Laura]

Yikes!

I could listen to an old In Death book (not my preferred option).
Currently re-listening to Innkeeper Chronicles, but I could do any Ilona Andrews series.
I’m almost done with Anne Bishop’s The Black Jewels series.
I’ve got a library loan for one from Wayfarers (I think that’s the series:The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet).
I can do any Nalini Singh series - I’m always up for a Guild Hunters re-listen.
Penny Reid - any series
Julia Quinn - anything other than Bridgerton (read them all).
Tamora Pierce - any series

From LaurLa’s list, I can do Wallflowers.

[LaurLa]

I could do Penny Reid - Winston Brothers or the not Bridgerton Julia Quinn


I'm open to other ideas, was just throwing ideas out there.

[Stacie]

I'll fix my books later when I'm on a laptop.

[Louise]

I can do:
Penny Reid - Beauty and the Mustache (#0 Winston Brothers; #4 Knitting in the City)

Julia Quinn - any

Women's Murder Club - James Patterson - just bought the latest one
Wallflowers - Lisa Kleypas

Gansett Island - Marie Force

[Stacie]

I can make penny Reid work

[Laura]

So, we’re doing Winston Brothers?

[LaurLa]

Looks like! Although Louise and might have our own side task with Women’s Murder Club 😃😃
