Has anyone got something for Jingle bell rock 1? (crown in title or on cover) because if so we can finish that category! I'm not a fantasy reader so they don't really make an appearance in my books 😂

Amazing! :)
I think I can probably do that one but I'm a mood reader so digging down may be a little tricky but I definitely have something that old that I never read 😂
I joined goodreads way back but didn't use it fully until 2020 so it may not be marked as want to read 4 years ago but it'll have been on my shelf that long

I answered this on the sign-ups thread but it's okay if it hasn't been on your GR tbr over 4 years since a lot of people are only just active. So long as it's been on your tbr over 4 years (and the book has been out since at least 2018) and you explain it in the completion post, I'll count it :)

I can't count this as Pink Polo 2 because it's not #ownvoices. The author is nonbinary but the main character is cis. Please pick another prompt :)
