Ashley GR Yes please, I won’t be at my computer for another hour or so.
Ashley GR Skye, that is amazing!
MountainKat Here is your next task!

Task 9 - 14. Read a minimum of 1000 pages in books with Contemporary Romance as MPG.

Contemporary and Romance do not have to be combined and may be combined with other words, MM Romance for example, but BOTH must be MPG (Main Page Genre)! Remember to use the first edition Kindle page count.
Skye Blue ☆*~ﾟლ(´ڡ`ლ)~*☆ I'm gonna read something in the Borealis Investigations series. Gotta figure out what book I have next on the list
Peggy Another newbie question, this is the total for all of us together and the page count for each book is still 150 pages?
Ashley GR Peggy wrote: "Another newbie question, this is the total for all of us together and the page count for each book is still 150 pages?"

Yes exactly, basically we keep reading until we reach 1000 pages and each of us has read at least one book.

Ashley GR Sorry to hear that Skye.

MountainKat Here is your next task!

Task 10 - 36. Read 6 books with animals on the cover.

Books selected for this task need to have an animal on the cover, real or mythical. Any edition’s cover can be used to qualify. Please include the qualifying cover in your completion posts. Shifters count, but must be in animal form on the cover. The depiction on the cover needs to represent the actual animal - so a dragon on the cover works, a statue or tattoo of a dragon does not. Not a team decision.
Skye Blue ☆*~ﾟლ(´ڡ`ლ)~*☆ Nice, I'm gonna go with a Fantastic Fluke book

Peggy I am going to post this since I am here
MountainKat I’m on my phone so I will check your completions later.

Here is your next task!

Task 11 - 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.
Ashley GR I'm going to go away from MM on this one because Crown of Midnight just came to me on my library holds list. I forgot I even had it there but it has over 500 tags of Paranormal so why not.

Peggy We had a lovely road trip, the weather was perfect, but 1200 miles in two days with a night in an uncomfortable bed are a bit much for me these days. My co-pilot can't drive for a bit yet so it was all me behind the wheel.

The book was odd to say the least. All of Jayne Ann Krentz's books are very much the same, but this and the first one in this series are not. They are both the same story from many of her earlier books, but the voice is completely different. I would say the story is hers, but the writing style says someone else did the actual writing.
Ashley GR Peggy, that's so much driving! You're a champ! Gald you had great weather.

I just finished my book and it was good. I will keep reading on in the series but for now I'm going back to my usual reads for a while.

idk why I didn't chose a shorter book.

Task 12 - 33. Read 6 books in the same sub-genre, teams decide.

As a team select a sub-genre of romance and than read 6 books in that sub-genre. Please include the selected sub-genre in your completion posts.
Skye Blue ☆*~ﾟლ(´ڡ`ლ)~*☆ That's our easy one.

m/m romance is a subgenre.
Skye Blue ☆*~ﾟლ(´ڡ`ლ)~*☆ I can't belive it.
My kid did it again.

He yawned, and dislocated his jaw.

He did it twice in the same day a little over a year ago.

Poor kid.

I was so excited to see that there was prequel to Out Of Focus. I could read dozens of books with these three. Getting to see how it all started with Angel and Dante was great. Loved the flash back perspective to it as well because we still got to see Jordan.
