MountainKat | 31557 comments Here is your next task!

Task 4 - 23. Each teammate reads a book that has been read by one of the RRRC moderators. No pass for this task.

To qualify for this task, the selected books need to be marked as read by one of the RRRC moderators. There is no date requirement for this task, but the selected book must be marked as read and rated. Please include a link to the moderator's review or read shelf in your completion posts. To make your searching easier - Fran, Jane, Karen and I all read MM Romance, but Jane reads MM exclusively. Fran, Karen and I read both MF and MM.

Fran's profile is private, but I'm sure she will accept any friend requests. 😊

Char | 401 comments If you like MM , try Icebreaker - It's a college romance and I read it in Feb 9 , which is less than 3 months ago, technically


message 123: by Katelyn (new)

Review- I loved this book. I also loved the first one. I had a hard time relating to the MC in the first book and I couldn't wait to read the second book because the character was more relatable to me. Loved it, loved both MC.


message 131: by Katelyn (new)

Katelyn | 546 comments Glad you loved it! I felt like I had a smile on my face through most of it.

Char | 401 comments I checked us in, since I was the last one to complete. I hope that's okay!


message 134: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31557 comments Here is your next task!

Task 6 - 15. Read a minimum of 600 pages in books with an audio edition.

You do not need to listen to the audio, but an audio edition must be available for you book to work for this task! Please include a link to the audio edition in your completion post. Remember to use the first edition Kindle page count.

That works! Thanks


message 136: by Katelyn (new)

Katelyn | 546 comments I asked in the Q&A if the audio book edition needed to be linked in goodreads or if we can find the audiobook on like hoopla or overdrive.


message 137: by Char (new)

Char | 401 comments I hope it's enough if we link it to Goodreads
I read ebooks and PDFs exclusively, since I find my attention wavering when I listen to audiobooks. Which means I have 0 clue on how and where to find a audio book


message 138: by Char (new)

Char | 401 comments And just to be sure, our books need not be tagged Romance right? Because I remember seeing this last time I was here , but I wasn't sure whether we follow it this time too


message 139: by Katelyn (new)

Katelyn | 546 comments I believe you are correct. The amazing race books do not have to be romance.


message 140: by Katelyn (new)

Katelyn | 546 comments I am wondering if like if it shows it has an audiobook on amazon then it would be fine.


message 141: by Katelyn (last edited May 11, 2022 12:43PM) (new)

Katelyn | 546 comments I think I am going to do Edge Of Darkness (Arrow's Edge MC, #2) by Freya Barker . It doesnt have the audio book edition on goodreads but it is accessible via audible.


message 142: by Katelyn (new)

Katelyn | 546 comments I wont be able to start it until tomorrow though


message 143: by Shandrea (new)

Shandrea Freeman | 888 comments I think what they expect us to do is click “other editions” and if it has an audiobook edition there listed it counts.


message 144: by Katelyn (new)

Katelyn | 546 comments Thats what I figured. It just sucks because they aren't always listed. But I was actually able to find a bunch and just picked one.


message 145: by Shandrea (new)

Shandrea Freeman | 888 comments Okay good! I’ll post later tonight

Let us know if you need help finding anything. I can always try and put together a lit of ones that have audiobook editions listed on their goodreads page.


message 147: by Katelyn (last edited May 11, 2022 04:27AM) (new)

Katelyn | 546 comments So this is the answer I got...

Katelyn wrote: "For the task 15. Read a minimum of 600 pages in books with an audio edition, does the audio edition need to be listed on Goodreads or can it be something we can find on our hoopla or overdrive? or amazon..."

I would prefer a link to Amazon or audible if the audio edition is not listed on GR, but outside links would be ok. I know not all books are updated here


message 148: by Katelyn (new)

Katelyn | 546 comments So if the book you want has an audiobook listed on amazon you should be good


message 149: by Katelyn (new)

Katelyn | 546 comments Also my book is 255 pgs so we still need 345 pgs


message 150: by Char (new)

Char | 401 comments Im gonna be reading Smile And Look Pretty by Amanda Pellegrino. ( I'm on the app - so can't link).

It has about 350 pages, if I'm not wrong.
