The Lost Challenges discussion

Bands & Books

A good book can make me think of a good song, and a good song will remind me of a good book. To me music and books just go hand in hand. Just like they do in this challenge.

For this challenge you will pick a specific number of genres that link to a band name. Then you will read books for each band name, the number of books you have to read depends on how many genres. 4 genres with 4 books in each, or 12 genres with 12 books in each, it’s up to you.

I like this challenge, but I've already got way too many that will end next December 31, so I'm going to postpone signing up for a month or two :)

Barb wrote: "Dawn, not to stir things up, but do you deliberately have "first in a series" listed twice?

It's not only "first in series", but also "angels", "romance" and "young adult". So maybe it was deliberately. :)

Musical tastes vary, I just listed band names that I though reflected a genre. You can pick a band you like better, or come up with your own.

It's not only "first in series", but also "angels", "romance" and "young adult". So maybe it was deliberately. :)"

Now that I look more closely, I see that, Tea, thanks! I just wanted to be sure it wasn't a mistake :) If I'd read more carefully, I would have realized it wasn't!

No problem. :) I went through the list so many times trying to decide should I go with band part or with book (genre) part. I'm still not sure I've picked right ones. I'll have to get a friend to come up with other things.

Tea I love your Village People section. I don't read M/M so I never thought of it.

I love it! I'm in, but it's going to take awhile to figure out which categories and what level.
