25.3 - SandyL's Task - Thanksgiving!

I LOVE Thanksgiving - between the yummy food, spending time with family and reflecting on our blessings, I think it's the best holiday in the US.

This is a two book task. Choose two options and read one book from each. The total number of pages for both books combined must be at least 500.

REQUIRED: Indicate the options you chose.

Option 1: The Food
I love cooking Thanksgiving dinner, although there is plenty of help from family members.
Read a book about cooking, baking or chefs from one of the following lists.
REQUIRED: State which list you used and what page your book is listed on.
Mysteries in Good Taste
Great Books about Food
Foodie Romance
Gay Romance Featuring Chefs or Food

Option 2: Family and Friends
Getting together with family and friend is something I really enjoy (although yes, there can be conflict! :-))
Read a book with the word FAMILY, FAMILIES, or FRIEND found intact in the title, subtitle or series title. If using the series title, it must show on Goodreads in parentheses after the title on the book's main page. Example: Rachel's Holiday (Walsh Family #2).

Option 3: Sports
Thanksgiving is a popular day for watching or playing football or other sports.
Read a book with a main page genre of Sports (either standalone or imbedded.)

Option 4: Shopping
After Thanksgiving is over, it's on to Black Friday! These days it seems to start on Thanksgiving day, rather than the Friday after.
Read a book written by an author whose initials are included in BLACK FRIDAY. All initials count, and each letter can only be used as often as it appears in the phrase.

Genre verified. Enjoy!!

Please confirm Natural Born Charmer for sports. Thank you.

Also, can the word in the title or series name be FRIENDS?

Genre confirmed.

And yes, the task is for the word to be intact, so Friends works. Enjoy your books!

Thanks very much Sandy :)
