**Remember to use the first edition Kindle page count only! If your page count comes from a Kindle edition published on the initial publication date on the editions page, it will count. If your page count comes from a Kindle edition labeled '1st edition', it will count. If your page count comes from the earliest dated English language Kindle edition, it will count. I am looking for one of those three things when confirming your books! As long the page count you list is correct, I will accept any link to the book. Ebook page count will be acceptable if no Kindle page count available. The acceptability of other page counts will be made on an individual basis.**

Please note that a rating is now required in your completion posts! A small review is also welcome. 😊

[MountainKat, Moderator]

I think most of you know each other, at least a little, but feel free to introduce yourself again. Please give any relevant information, especially time zone as that helps know when it is best to communicate. 😊

Please select a team leader to help keep track of where your team is in any given task. And as necessary guide discussions for task decisions. Any teammate can report your completions though.

Remember, it is the team's responsibility to notify the host (me) if a teammate fails to complete the task in a timely manner or otherwise goes missing! I am not checking all the team threads regularly to notice and may only check when notified a task is complete.

PS - If you want to be known as anything other than 4 Fast Tarts, just let me know!

[Jill]

Checking in and my book passport is ready to go. I think Lilliana should be team leader unless someone else wants to take that on.

Task 15 - 79. Read 6 books that have the same romance trope, teams decide which trope - we picked Gay for You

As a team select a common romance trope, fake boyfriend, secret baby etc., then read 6 books that use that trope. Please include the selected trope in your completion posts. Remember to let me know how you know your book qualifies, be it precis, tags or lists - I need to know where to look to confirm your books. Include any necessary links or info in your completion posts.

Task 14 - 67. Read 6 books by an author whose first or last name begins with G.

Books selected for this task need to be written by an author whose first or last name begins with an G. Please include the author’s name in your completion post.

Task 13 - 100. Read 8 books with more than 10 letters in the title.

Books selected for this task need to have 11 letters or more in the titles. Ampersands count as 1 letter, do not count spaces or punctuation.

Task 12 - 65. Each player reads 2 books in a series, teammates can read the same or different series.

This is not a team decision, you can read any series listed on GR for this task. Each teammate needs to read 2 books in the same series to complete this task. In between books count as long as they meet the other challenge requirements. So, Michaele reads two books in a series, Jill can read two books in the same or different series and so on

Task 11 - 77. Each teammate reads a book that the teammate after them alphabetically has rated 5 stars. No pass for this task.

There is no date limitation for this task, just select a book the teammate after you alphabetically has read and rated 5 stars. Please include a link to the teammate's review in your completion post.

Task 10 - 58. Read 6 books published in the year one of the teammates joined RRRC, teams decide which teammate.

2017 (Michaele)

Task 9 - 50. Read 6 books set in the same location, teams decide the location.

As a team select a location and read 6 books set in the selected location. If you choose a big city it is easy enough, but you are free to use the state if within the US or the country if outside the US. Remember to let me know how you know your book qualifies, be it title, precis, book details, tags or lists - I need to know where to look to confirm your books. Please include any necessary links or other information in your completion posts.

Task 8 - 43. Read 6 books published in June.
For this task you will be using the initial publication date. If there is one listed on the editions page, use that, otherwise I will be looking for the earliest dated English language edition. Your selected books can be published in any year, but must be initially released in June

Task 7 - 32. Read 6 books with over 2500 ratings.
You can find the number of ratings on the main book page under the title. Remember you are looking for ratings, not reviews. Please include the number of ratings as your qualifier in your completion posts.


Task 6 - 17. Read 4 books written by a male author.
Books selected for this task need to be written by a male author. Please include a link to the author’s profile or website in your completion post.

Task 5 - 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.


Task 4 - 11. Read 4 books in continuing series, one that has not been completely published.
To qualify for this task, the selected books need to be in series that are not completely published yet or are ongoing. So the second book in a trilogy where the third is coming out later this year would work or a book in a series such as In Death that is ongoing would also work. Please include in your completion post a link to the series page to show that the series is not completed yet, i.e. expected future publication date on a later book or description as a trilogy with only two books listed.

Task 3 - 3. Each player reads a book by a new to you author - no pass for this task.
To qualify for this task, the selected books need to be written by a new to you author. You may have other books by the selected author on your shelves, but only the book selected for this task can be marked as read/rated. Include a link to your read shelf in your completion post, ideally sorted to your selected author. Please make sure the book you read for this task is on your shelves and marked as read. If your profile is private, you will either need to open if for the duration of this task or friend me so I can confirm your book. If I cannot confirm your book, the task is not completed.


Task 2 - 5. Read 4 books first published within the last year.
To qualify for this task, the selected books need to have been initially published on or after September 16, 2021. If there is a date listed at the top of the editions page use it. Otherwise I will be looking for the earliest dated English language edition regardless of format as the qualification. Please include the initial publication date of your selected book in your completion post.

First Task - All Teams!
0. Read a sports romance (MPG) or a book with a primarily green cover, teams decide which. No pass for this task.
With both college and pro football seasons starting, I’m sure I’m not the only one with sports on the brain! As a team, decide if you are a book with primarily green cover or a book with MPG Sports Romance. If selecting a sports romance, it can either be the generic Sports (alone or combined) or the specific sports such as football, baseball or hockey - but it MUST be MPG! If selecting books for the cover option, green must be the primary color you see on the cover to qualify. No pass for this task.

Thank you and perfect Michaele !! Some indications :

For task 12 : you have to make 5 suggestions of your own. For example I’ m going thought everybody shelfs to suggest 4-5 books you all didn't read. I only found 3 for now :)
You may suggest some of the same for sure .
I ll update the recap (message #8) with all our suggestions and conclusions

[Michaele]

Ok, hopefully this works...
12. Recommendations

1. How to Be a Normal Person
2. Breakaway (this isn't my favorite in the series, but I figured it was easier to start at the beginning).
3. Upside Down

These are for Liza - since she has read all the others I've suggested -
4. Signs
5. Home & Away

[Michaele]

Favorites

1. Socially Orcward (this is the last in a series -but it's my fav of the 3).
2. Dex in Blue (again, not the 1st in the series, but I really did not like the 1st in this series)
3. The Witness (a mf option)
4. Finders Keepers (super sweet, no angst at all - cute dog)
5. Honeymoon for One

[Michaele]

53. Each teammate reads a book set in one of your teammates' home town (born in, raised in, currently live in - all work), teams decide. No pass for this task.

We may need to make a decision on this one too - I think we need to pick one place and all read a book set there - unless I'm misunderstanding?

If we do need to agree, I'd say we shouldn't pick my hometown - It's possible to find mm romance set in Utah, but not easy!

[LillianaPassions]

You right ! Thanks !
Mine is not easier : Paris (France)
I ll update the posts !
