Remember to look for the words BELT and bonus word CARPET when reading.
I have chosen the book The Secrets of Us by Lucinda Berry. I requested this book 2 months ago from my library and it just arrived today!


The other book only had belt. It had carpets instead of carpet.
There also looks like there is a murder in this book so that would work for the other challenge. Just waiting to hear from someone as goodreads says it is under 140 pages when it isn’t

Belt & Carpet Week:
My Letter: E
Book: Property of Lucian by Simone Elise. Property of Lucian

Review:
Overall the story wasn’t bad but there were quite a few errors. Not just spelling mistakes but sentences that didn’t make sense. I also found that it jumped around a bit and was missing information in certain spots. I actually wanted to rate it 3 and a half stars but since we are unable to give half stars I am being generous and gave it a 4.
Bonus Items and Points:
Belt: "...unclipped his gun from his belt ..." p. 42
Carpet: "...His eyes stayed focused on the carpet..." p. 69
Total: E=1; 1 + 2 = 3 points
Note: It says this book is 136 pages but it is actually 179 pages.

I’m switching my book because it’s the 4th in the series that I was completing. Started it today so should finish by Saturday. This series has consumed my week.

Belt & Carpet Week:
My Letter: B
Book: Brutal Vows by J.T. Geissinger
Read: 6/9/22
Rating: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Review:
Reyna and Spider... *drool*
The buildup in these books, the hate to love and tension, just explodes into so much passion.
This will probably be the review for all 4 books as I am in love with all 4 men and all 4 women in these books. I devoured these books in a week, the last one in a day. If your a fan of mafia men and the women who make them powerful (or weak), this is the book for you. I wish there was a continuation of this series.
Bonus Items and Points:
Belt: "...makes sure she buckles her seat belt ..." p. 83
Carpet: "...He falls face-first onto the carpet..." p. 111
Total: B=3; 3 + 2 = 5 points

Ive, Vicky and Dale-- you guys are going to hate me but my eyes have gotten bigger than my stamina. i'm going to have to back out of the Scrabble game.
my trying to read/ find a 140 page book and get thru it in exactly 7 days is more of a challenge than i can handle on top of my other challenges. I did let Lanelle know.

For this challenge you will need to read one book a week.
Each week the moderator will announce the Word of the Week. The WotW will have four letters. Each team member will choose one of the four letters. That letter will determine the book they will read that week. You can use the first word of the title (excluding 'a', 'an', or 'the'), or the author's first, middle, or last initial.
There will also be a BONUS Word of the Week. (BWotW)
Example:
The WotW is 'BOAT'. You pick the letter 'A'. You decide to read Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen.
If you find both the WotW and the BWotW in the text of the book, you will earn the Scrabble point value of the letter and a point for each of the found words. In this example, A is worth 1 point, plus 2 points for the two found words for a total of 3 points.
WotW and BWotW will be announced each Monday morning.
