Romance Lovers for the Challenge-Impaired discussion

Remember that old Dance Party Team Challenge we did ages ago? Think of this challenge as a both homage and reinvention of that challenge!

How To’s and Rules:
🎼There will be no levels to this challenge. Re-reads are allowed and there are no page minimums for this challenge! Do remember that you CAN change your chosen Books at any time during the month to count for the challenge!
🎶 NO DUPLICATING BOOK OR TASK ENTRIES!! Books and Tasks are only to be used/listed/completed once! An example of this would be reading a book published in December 2014 for the "Read a book published in December (any year)" task, and then reading another book, this one published in December 2016, justifying it by saying that the books were published in two separate years. Once you complete the "Read a book published in December (any year)" task, it can't be completed a second time to complete the task.
🎹 Each month, a new artist will be chosen. There will always be a "Fun Fact" task listed, and then the artist's 10 "Greatest Hits" (as chosen by our mods!) will be listed as tasks for you to match your reading to. If you do not like the songs picked, but are still a fan of the artist, there will be a link to the artist's "Songbook" where you can see all songs by that performer and can choose a song to challenge yourself with, or you can choose to do the spell out options!
🎵You can read as many or as few books as you like each month! However, you must keep your original post updated and must also mark books as finished by adding the date finished next to the book listed and either striking them out using the "< s> < /s>" HTML commands (without the spaces) or by copying and pasting a checkmark: ✔ ✓. No date or checkmark will ensure your post doesn't get counted for participation! Be sure to give a shout out in the thread when you're all done! Please do not make a separate post with your finished challenge, edit your original comment! This is so we can keep accurate track of participation. You can make an announcement post like "Finished in comment #2!", so we know where to find your completed challenge to congratulate you! Duplicate posts will be deleted!
📻 Duration will be from April 1st to April 30th, 2020.
📱 Call into DJ Trea by the 14th of each month to request a specific artist! (That means send her a PM if you've got an artist you'd like to see featured!)

Here is April 2020's Artist of the Month: Disturbed

Mod Trea's husband is a huge fan of the Heavy Metal band Disturbed, and he was watching a news blurb today about how empty most places are, including Times Square, but more importantly, they're silent! Since one of his favorite songs that Disturbed has done is "Sounds of Silence", she thought it would be a perfect time to feature Disturbed in this challenge!

Fun Fact:
The band has accomplished a feat only two other groups have done: had 5 full-length albums debut at #1 on the Billboard 200 consecutively- Read the 1st and 5th book in a series (does not have to be from the same series)

The Songs (In No Particular Order):
"Sounds of Silence": Read a book where a main character is deaf, mute, or both, or is listed as a post-apocalyptic or dystopian romance.
"Down with the Sickness": Read a book in which a main character is a medical professional (doctor, nurse, lab technician, etc.)
"Prayer": Read an inspirational romance
"Land of Confusion": Read a book in which a main character suffers from amnesia/repressed memories
"Violence Fetish": Read a BDSM romance
"Guarded": Read a book in which a main character is a bodyguard or requires protection
