Wow, Anna, you’re my hero - I wouldn’t have even started my second book until tonight! 😅. You definitely carried the team this round. Thank you. 🙏🙏🙏😊

[Michelle's Empty Nest]

Alrighty, team, who do we want to read??

[Sunflower Reads]

I have books by Ali Hazelwood and Sangu Mandanna that I want to get to, but I’m totally open to other authors if the group has favorites. What do you all prefer?

[bamaace83]

I've never read anything that I know of by Sangu but maybe I have. I probably can find a book for either of those authors. I love sports romance books so those are really easy for me to knock out.

[Sunflower Reads]

I'm open to anything. 🙂

[Vicki]

I’m also open. Whoever you all want to read, I will find a book by that author. I live in California and we are driving to Arizona to see my granddaughter who is my oldest grandchild and her two children and her husband. I will also be seeing a grandson who is 27 years old and I will get to meet his girlfriend. So I will be gone for 10 days.

[Michelle's Empty Nest]

Why don't we go with the Ali Hazelwood suggestion, then? There are lots more to choose from with her.

[Sunflower Reads]

Can I use the same Ali Hazelwood novel for two separate challenges if it fits requirements for both?

[Sunflower Reads]

That is... if we're going with Ali Hazelwood.

[bamaace83]

Sure, let's do Ali. Yes you can do it for separate challenges. I like to make my books work for multiple things.

[Vicki]

I will see what I have. Hazelwood it is!

Thanks, that’s really helpful to know. I do have more of her books on my TBR, but I’d like to read another author in between before coming back to her..

I'm reading that one too! I've read a lot of her books so I had to find one that I hadn't read yet.

[Michelle's Empty Nest]

I almost chose that one, too.

[Sunflower Reads]

😄 it's pretty good
