30.2 - Jonquil’s task: Takin’ It to the Streets

Two book task.
1. Read a book set in a place that you consider 'magical'; state why in post.

Book1 -- Dreamland Social Club by Tara Altebrando -- GRA -- (Magical place: Coney Island)

I have fond memories of clinging to by father's back as he dodged the 'enormous' waves at Coney Island beach. To a small child it was thrillingly adventurous, and I marveled that we ever managed to survive each time. It wasn't until young adulthood that I learned that my beloved dad had only been crawling around on his knees (as I held on for dear life)... in the shallows... because he couldn't actually swim!

2. Read a book where a group of people are celebrating in the streets; name the celebration in post.

Book2 -- Fat Tuesday by Sandra Brown -- GRA -- (Celebration: Mardi Gras)
--------------------------------------------------------

30.4 - Dlmrose’s Task: Title Time

Book1: Two-Word minimum in title.

The Stranger by Harlan Coben


Book2: Complete title of Book1 is found in Book2.

The Stranger I Married by Sylvia Day -- GRA

Marie-Anne post 1346

For task 20.9, you claimed a BB ticket for The Name of the Wind, stating that it has 722 pages. The edition you linked to has 662 pages.

In this case it doesn't matter, since either length will get you 1 BB ticket. However, you should be careful which edition you link to, since in many cases it could make a difference.

No need to repost - this is just for your information.
