Heather I need you to judge a book to see if it fits a category.

I read , in it Risa has been changed and is now categorized as a dark angel. She fights a woman that hell couldn't keep in. Would this one count for angel vs demon?

Heather, can you also explain what you're thinking with the fire and ice one?

I've been trying to think of a book for that one too.

Would a book with a dragon (fire) and then some type of ice spell work . . . or is it something different?

I know, I've been trying to think of things too. My other thought was something like Caressed by Ice, you have Judd who is a very cold person, while Brenna is bubbly and warm.

Good one! Sadly I'm not ready to read that one again . . . maybe Shield of Winter could work . . .

Literally. An actual fire, whether it be a lit candle or a forest fire. Or, an ice cube, ice to skate on, slip on, icicle...

Heather what was your verdict on this one?

Gotcha!

Sorry, I didn't see the post. I initially thought the whole good verses evil thing, but I didn't put that. I put angel vs. demon. I guess as long as she is an "angel" then it works.

Thanks! If it was a no, then I'd move the vamp one there and search for a new vamp one.

In it! Its happening! I'm getting some points this year, y'all! Until I completely forget that I signed up to do challenges as per always. Sigh.

Ok...so what I'm hearing is that everyone should start harassing Tya toward the end of the year.

Yep. True story. Harass away.

Mawh-ha-ha! Permission to Harass . . . me likey.

Try doing a google sheet for it like me. That really helped last year, and it's working really well or me this year.

1) What's a google sheet?
2) I'm kind of done, but not really. I have the categories, but I'm still looking for a cat and dog book to get full points.

I'm reserving Steel Beauty as a re-read for this one.

I could re-read an Animal Magnetism book, but a new one comes out at the beginning of April.

Heather wrote: "I could re-read an Animal Magnetism book, but a new one comes out at the beginning of April."

I thought of that series too.

Oh, google has a excel/data shet in the google docs. I put all my challenges in there and then keep track of them from there.

Go, Heather!

I read a book that would work for the nature/city one, I think. She's from Georgia and runs off to New York and after her marriage fails she runs back to Georgia. It was...pretty bad, actually. I'll use it if I can't find anything else and if it counts. But, I'd rather wait until I find an actual good book.

Just finished mine, the last category, dogs vs cats was a tough one. The book I stumbled upon and 2 of each and even a hamster.

Yeah, Darcy!!

Thanks Shera!

8/10

I read a cat and dog book but now I don't remember what book it was!

Heather wrote: "I read a cat and dog book but now I don't remember what book it was!"

I hate it when that happens. What about going through your read list and sort it by date read. That might job your memory.

I always have it sorted by date read. I thought I had knew which one it was, but when I did a search they talked about a cat, but never got one. There's another one somewhere. Oh well.

Upon finishing a book I come over to the group and try to match them up with challenges. Then put any alt they could match up with on the side.

Or else I'd never get any points!!

What about

Thank you Darcy. I'm uploading A Kiss Before the Apocalypse now.

It is a good series. I love the dog in it.

I'm listening to it and it threw me at first because it is narrated by the same person as Kevin Hearne's Iron Druide series which also has a "talking" dog. I like it so far

I can see that. When I first listened to the Kitty Norville book I had issues because it's the same narrator as the Rachel Morgan series. I seemed weird that Rachel's voice was in Kitty's words.

I need a recommend for Dog vs cat!

Also, which series have good vs bad vamps? My brian is pulling up a blank. Would Mercy Thompson series work since Stephan is good and the other vamps are bad? Especially book 2.

I think that work work for vamps. Also any of the later books from Lindsay Sands or Kerrilyn Sparks would work.

Thanks! As I was falling asleep the books started popping up in my mind.

Sadly dogvscat isn't coming to me.

Take a look at Dana Marie Bell. She has some cat/dog shifter books that fun and short reads.

Ooooo, thank you!!

Sure thing!

I'am done
