This is why I suggest you start from a blank template and not copy earlier posts or a teammates post - 180 isn't listed as a page count of any edition for that book. 🤷🏻♀️
Here is your next task!Task 3 - 8. Read 4 books with a beach on the cover.
To qualify for this task, the book’s cover needs to clearly and obviously show a beach. Ideally, you would want to show sand/dirt and the edge of water on your covers. You can use any edition’s cover to qualify for this task. Please include the qualifying cover in your completion posts.

Review: This was a lovely romance even if the two started on the very wrong foot. There was a lot of external angst, but I liked the way the romance developed

Read: October 2nd
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️
I was actually going to read Honeymoon for One by Keira Andrews, but when I was looking for it on my Kindle, I stumbled across this book. I have owned it for 10 years already but have never read it. Well, now I have.... It was okay, a light read with no surprises.
Caipi, i thought you'd posted the wrong book at first ...then when i saw the author , i thought " well she wouldnt get the author wrong as well" 🤔🤔😄

Rating: 4 stars
Review: Really creative characters and I love the plot - Nino is so adorable and you can see his character changing in the sweetest way, it's just great. Such a fun read (and an incredible listen). Def the best Provincetown book yet.
I probably won't get to my book till Tuesday.

Out in the Deep by Lane Hayes
154 Pages
How it qualifies: Caipi recommended (see link in msg. 94)
Date Read: 10/9
Rating: 3 Stars
Review: This was a sweet and easy read but also a little boring. I like Hayes's later stuff, so I think this series will probably get better.

The Art of Husbandry by Jay Hogan
402 pages
How it Fits: rec'd by Amanda (see link in msg. 94)
Read: 11 Oct
Rated: 4 stars
Review: I'm a fan of Jay Hogan mostly because of the variety of their stories. You never get the same thing twice, and it's so refreshing.
The Art of Husbandry is a mellow hurt/comfort story which really focuses on the development of the relationship at the healing of the MC. There are lots of warning tags about "death of a child", and the main character and his ex explore their feelings deeply.
There's also a beautiful romance for the MC, and signs of a budding one for the ex (which is the subject of the next book in the series, so I'm looking forward to that one!).
Slow paced, with lots of gorgeous descriptions of New Zealand sheep farming land. Beautifully written, as all of Hogan's stories are.
for this one, does the series rule apply? or does the actual book need to come from one of you guys' lists?
