Too bad they're not on the romance package, I'm swamped with Kindle books right now but I'll try to get to ..."

I guess a cyborg could count.

Ok, thanks!

Ya'll I finally got 75% of my reviews done!!! I don't have the energy to find spots for them this sec but these are the ones that have a review now.

Yay! That's great :)

Are we using our last pass on flipflops then?

Felicia, do you want to try to read the series next month? I'm sure it will fit for the Pride challenge and since neither of us got to it this month...

Yes ma'am. I will try. :D

I'll restart it for June 1st.

Okay thanks! I'll try also, there's just so many books!

Aly wrote: "Okay thanks! I'll try also, there's just so many books!"

I'm still not reading. ): Maybe I'll try picking something up this weekend to read.

Would Butler count as a common last name? If so, I have a book for that category

Done all my reviews!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Woohoo! Thanks for being so patient with me guys. Is there any particular place you want me to put them or just anywhere? ^-^

Anywhere they fit would be great! We're pretty close to finishing Hunt 2 now

I didn't find a spot in hunt 2 so I put them in hunt 3. :)

ALY! I am loving the shit out of Fake Boyfriend so far! 30% in! :D

Yes! I loved it too. Need to read book 2 :)

I'm going to go right into book 2 when I finish. I'm hoping this is the end of this weird slump thing I'm in. :D

I hope so too! I'm hoping to start book 2 by tomorrow

Hey gang! We are down to our last few unclaimed categories:

1) Person wearing sunglasses on cover
2) Cover with winter scene
3) Boat on cover
4) Cover has summer scene
5) MCs name starts with F
6) Message Alaina for a book
7) Author has common last name
8) M-A-Y in title
9) food in title
10) reread a favorite book
11) MC has an unusual pet
12) MC goes on vacation
13) MC is/gets pregnant
14) set in spring
15) features love at first sight

I may have one for the summer on the cover, but I need to check with the mods to see if they will accept it. And I think I can switch something around to cover the unusual pet category.
Otherwise, I got nada at the moment unless I get really creative with moving things around.

Saige's book is currently under a really easy category. MC is male but I have found one with a boat cover. Do we want to switch that around? Do we have a banked Male MC book? https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8...

There's also an edition with what appears to be sunglasses? https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Thanks Anna! Does anyone have a boat or sunglasses coming up to help decide?

We might also be able to use for MCs name starts with an F. In the blurb it says "When Deuce, Fade, Stalker and Tegan set out, the odds are against them."

It's also under a really easy category of female MC.

Aly, I just got the ok to use for summer on the cover - but I haven't even started it yet. You're done and have banked it, do you want to post it now for the open category?

Sure! Thanks for looking into that. And I can move Horde if we want

I moved mine to the "cover has a boat" category. I also have one that'll be finished in a few days for "author has a common last name"

Guys we can move Saige's book The Rithmatist from published in May to M,A,Y in the title with this edition. :)

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4...

I can then use my book for published in May.

Looks like we are close to getting the final few categories claimed. Take a look at the spreadsheet and see if there is something you can do to fill them up. We can also use our 3 passes from June to get us to the next round too, but I'd rather see if we can fill them with what we are reading/have read first.

Good idea Book!

I asked Alaina for a book I could read so I'll try to get that done this weekend

Also if anyone has a red haired character I asked if Whiskey would count for food. I figured hair is easier and Felicia okayed it.

I will post my book shortly ish. I'm currently watching a K drama.

I am reading but I don't think it counts for anything right now.

If a Mod okay's my Lovely War for love at first sight, that will be done.

I'm like 99% sure Felicia just did that. :)

Perfect, I posted it!

Awesome!

I have a red hair book. Kell from A Darker Shade of Magic has red hair

Wait, we don't need red hair. That was covered a while ago

Ah I get it - move my Whiskey to food and Aly can take red hair. Red hair has to be on the cover though, I think the French edition shows Kell.

Yes. So that would be one more down as well. I think we are left with 7 or so?

1) Person wearing sunglasses on cover
2) Cover with winter scene
3) Message Alaina for a book (Aly did this. Will read over the weekend)
4) Author has common last name (Saige has a book planned but is not currently reading for it)
5) M-A-Y in title (switching books.)
6) reread a favorite book (Saige is reading Carry On)

Double checking SS now. I went by books posted.

message 295, I asked to switch Horde to MC name starts with F and put another book in the MC female category.

KK. Just missed it then. :)

So we only have sunglasses and winter scene unclaimed

I found sunglasses on the cover!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Who was read Living Dead in Dallas? Was it you Jennifer?

Link to edition - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Man in back has black sunglasses.

Wow! Good eye there Anna! I didn't even notice the guy in the background.

I've gotta go get my kids from school, but I'll add it when I get home.

Yay so close

So just winter scene now. Anyone have anything? I'm not even 100% sure what the mods mean by winter scene? Like snow? How can you tell for sure it's snow?

1) Person wearing sunglasses on cover (Living Dead in Dallas)
2) Cover with winter scene
3) Message Alaina for a book (Aly did this. Will read over the weekend)
4) Author has common last name (Saige has a book planned but is not currently reading for it)
5) M-A-Y in title (switching books.)
6) reread a favorite book (Saige is reading Carry On)

I have a snow book that I can listen to tomorrow. It's short so shouldn't take me long
