I like your title too. I have really only looked to see what the challenge is about, so far. I’m still thinking of a title for mine.

Thanks, Cherie! I think it's all thank to my latest read, with the touring through google map, lol.

I still have unfinish books if I want to earn my badge, so I'll only focus on badge 1, pick some books, and leave my thread untidy for the time being. We still have a lot of time!

Good luck - both finishing up this year and starting planning for next 😊

Thanks, Margo. I only need 2 more books but I'm stuck XD

You have a whole month yet - hit the library girl 😉

Ooooh - how was it? I bought the book specifically for that task.

It was so great to the point where I might hate it. Though I was more enjoying the genre which isn't on the MPG.

Which genre is that?

Romance?
