Steph (angel4492) | 32741 comments Hiya, Team Caps! Thanks for volunteering to guide your team through a round of BookShelf Bingo!

Your job, should you choose to accept it, will require a few things:
1 ~ Be our go-to person should we have any questions about your team
2 ~ Organize your teammate's weekly reads for each shelf/category so that the BSB Ninjas can quickly and easily verify and approve your stamp request(s)
2a ~ Create a master list in a post (preferably on the first page of your team's thread) and update it weekly or as often as necessary
2b ~ Post your team's stats on the Captain's Log prior to requesting a stamp
3 ~ Encourage and motivate your team (you may also ask to borrow Judithe's whip whenever necessary)
4 ~ Post regularly to ensure your team is communicating and on track each week
4a ~ Send them a PM and friendly poke if they haven't posted at least once a week, noted their book choice, and/or appear to have dropped out of webspace
5 ~ Send us a PM (Steph, Sandra or Judithe) should you need us for any reason throughout the game

Review — Truly, five stars is an inaccurate rating for this book. I have no words; and I have all the words! This book does not waste time luring a reader into the story and the story doesn’t let go even when it ends. While not a reread for me, I finished rereading the series a bit ago and was able to read the few new books that I hadn’t gotten to yet. I know this book will remain a stand out for me. I’m ready to start rereading again, just so I can experience this book again and have all the feels.

Break the Day, Laura Adrian – 10/13/22 – ✮✮✮✮✰
Review — It’s been a while since I’ve been to the Breed world, but it was a delight to come back to it. I enjoy getting to know the next generation of Breed from the group that started this series. In this book, Rafe—who is Dante’s and Tessa’s son—is the main hero. He’s a strong male, and certainly met his match with his mate. I had to pull a star because the ending felt way to rushed. I look forward to the next few books which will close out this great series.

Review
This was sooooo good! And man that cliff hanger I knew they were talking about her one and only rule a little to much in this book. But how could she not that was family what did they expect. The next book is the last one and I don't know what I am going to do without Reyes, Cookie, Charlie, and the whole gang. I hope maybe we get a series with Beep That would be kind of cool. That way we can see some cameos and what not. I love this series so much so far never a dull moment and full of spice each and every book. I am going to have to fit the last book in sometime soon.

Shelf 1 — Vampires

Book: Filthy Rich Vampire
By: Geneva Lee Albin
October 11, 2022 – Finished Reading – ✮✮✮✮✮
Review: So good!

This book is about an average woman in a vampire who are not supposed to be together! They are fighting everything with everything within them that is telling them that they are meant to be! They are wondering why it is so hard. This book was absolutely amazing I am going to start book 2 of filthy rich vampire! I highly recommend this book.

Review: Pretty good

Overall all this book was pretty good. In the beginning it was kind of slow And I almost lost interest. About halfway through it really picked up and I was hooked. At the end it seemed to just cut off and made you feel like the book was not finished. With that being said I do recommend this book if I could give it a 3.7 I would as it is closer to that.

Sandra | 25913 comments Stephanie, I think you meant to write Brimstone Bound is on the Group Bookshelf, rather than the vampire shelf. It is Free Space after all, and not vampire. :)

Review: So very good!

This book was so very good! Detective Emma Wanted nothing more than to be a part of the police force. But then she gets put into the sup squad and she thinks it's a bad thing! Turns out she's right but she's also wrong. Emma is dragged from vampires to werewolf and back again! She is killed but you'll never guess who killed her I know I didn't. I highly recommended brimstone bound! It held my attention from page 1 until the last!
