Hi Andreda! So happy to meet you and get playing! If you don't mind I'd like to do the Good Tasks first.

I have a question or two. Have you played before? If so do you want to keep up the completion list?

Ok so for example I'm doing the good tasks first... each character has 2 tasks beneath it... Do I do both the tasks for each good character or do I choose one task from under each to complete and you would do the remaining one or do we both have to complete both tasks under each character?

Hii. Nice to meet you as well. I am fine with the Good tasks first.

I haven't played this before but I'm okay with keeping up with the completion list.

I'm not completely sure about if we have to do both tasks or not for each character. I can asks if it matters, but if it doesn't which way would you prefer?

Okay so from the Q&A, you would do all the Good Guys tasks for this month and I would do all the Bad Guys tasks for this month. Then next month we switch. So both months all tasks should be complete

Thanks for finding out for us. This is gonna be fun!

No problem!! It definitely is, I'm excited :)

How can I make it easy for you to keep up with my completed tasks? I am going to keep updating in my original Good Girl/Guy post but would you like me to also just make a new post like the one that follows each time I complete a task letting you know which one I completed?

LOL I hope that made sense because it's late here and my brain what lil I have is all jumbled.

Like for example I completed

-Read a book with a white cover ( Caroline gets married and wears a white dress) Apocalypse by Hayley Anderton 3/01/22

You can update your good girl/guy post. I come here everyday to check. If I miss one and you notice, you can make a new post. My glasses have broken so sometimes I miss things lol

Good Morning! I will do that for you. I also am on a bit so feel free just to give me a holler about any old thing if ya want. lol

I haven't really went searching yet but do you know of any good books with a crow on the cover?

Good Morning!!! And will do.

Hmmm let me check....

This one has a crow on the cover in the background. I enjoyed this. Not sure if you're into Stephen King or not



I started this one and got pretty far but had to return it to the library. It was pretty good. I recently bought the series in order to read it from start to finish.

Thanks for the ideas but I feel like a big dummy because check this out. I had this book down for the black cover book but after I started reading it today I looked closer at the cover and in the center there appears to be a flock of crows flying around that woman's head that I had not seen before. I saw that owl on top and never even saw the crows! (smacking self on head) If you haven't read it I am about halfway in and it's pretty good. It's taking me back in time to when I was a teenager with VHS tapes, cassette tapes and loads of 80's memorabilia. I am gonna switch it to the crow book because I am certain I can find a black cover book easier. LOL

Yayyy!!! I'm glad you've got one and it's pretty good. And I've done that plenty times with prompts about things on covers, sometimes it be right there and we look right past it lol. The book looks very interesting from the cover alone. And I don't blame you because it is a little easier to find a book with a black cover then with a crow.

Andreda I completed 2 more and hope to have finish My Best Friends Exorcism later tonight.

Here are the two I'm marking off but want your opinion on one of them.

Matt Donovan Tasks

-Read a book with a brown cover ( Matt becomes a Sheriff) by Laura Ingalls Wilder 3/03/22

-Read a book about Good Guys ( Matt is one of the good guys) Rock Paper Scissors by Alice Feeney 3/02/22


Have you read Rock Paper Scissors? The only place I can see to fit it is under the Good Guy book because it has nothing to do with vampires and he's not really a bad guy even thought he did cheat on his wife one time and that was an accident due to an health issue he has had since birth. I would consider him a good guy even though I totally would never consider dating or marrying him LMAO

OMG I just saw today was your BIRTHDAY!!!!! Happy Birthday sweet lady! I hope you had a wonderful day and your upcoming year brings you lots of awesome things and great reads! HUGS my new friend!

Okay I'm updating the post now. Sorry been a little distracted between my birthday being yesterday and my boyfriend's being today. Also thank you very much for the birthday wishes. I truly appreciate it!!!! All the HUGS back friend!!!

I would say that Rock Paper Scissors should count towards good guy if you found him to be a good guy, I think that prompt may be to our own discretion. I can definitely hit the Q&A thread and ask. I know I need to ask for if A Discovery of Witches would count for a vampire time traveling book since a vampire is one of the mcs but the book is centered around witches.

I'm on my kindle tonight so can't update cause it won't let me link so will do that tomorrow but I did complete My Best Friend's Exorcism. I started the new Finely Donovan but my mom took it home with her so got to wait to finish it! greed lol. So I started a book from book of the month called Goodnight Beautiful and am about 3 chapters in and it's just meh so far.

Happy Birthday to your boyfriend as well! My hubbies is March 27 and he reminds us at least three times a week that he will be expecting a coconut cake. lol

That supposed to be grrrrrrr not greed! spell check drives me bonkers

It's okay. I have your crow task completed with the date for yesterday on our completion post. Awwww nuuuu mom!!! Not the book you already started lol. How are the Finlay Donovan books? I've been thinking of giving them a try. I hope Goodnight Beautiful picks up for you soon. I'm a have to look that one up and see what it's about.

My boyfriend says thank you very much!!! Yayyyy March birthday buddies!!! Lol he's making sure he gets that coconut cake.

I'm hoping now that our birthdays are over that I can finish Vicious and start A Song Below Water either tonight or tomorrow afternoon. I gotta get caught up on the books lol.

Howdy! I haven't completed any more yet but have several started. Haven't felt so good past few days so ain't really done alot of anything. ONly jumped on tonight because I absolutley had to update a few challenges but wanted to pop in and say hello and let you know I was reading just aint finished anything else yet.

Hope your reading is going well! My mom brought my book back and I had to shush her several times. She said well hurry up and read it so I can talk about it. LOL She do me the same way about tv shows/movies if she watches them first. She be bursting at the seams to spill the beans.

Hiiiii!!! I hope the books you are currently reading are going much better than my current read. Awwww I hope you feel better soon. It's never too good not feeling your best. I'm so glad your mom has brought back the Finlay Donovan book. Your mom sounds so fun, but at least you know the book is good. My boyfriend is the same way when he reads except he gives me updates every reading session so I end up having to put books off for awhile so I have time to forget LOL. I hope you'll enjoy the book as much as your mom did.

LOL your boyfriend and my mom sound alike for sure. I have about 15 pages left in the second Finlay book and I must be honest.....its nowhere near as awesome as the first one! It's not a bad book but no action comes in until you are about 150 pages or so into it. The first 150 pages is updating you from what happened in book one so in my opinion it could be read as a stand alone if need be.

Next I have one I need to get read for a review but I am hoping it will fit under bad boys. I have it listed there for the time being but wont know for certain until I get it read. I'm trying to fit all I read under a task because some I have to read for review whether they fits or not. lol

Happy Reading!

Dang I hate when a book does nothing for the first half but try to catch you up on what happened in the last book of the series. I hope at least it ends well for you and the first 150 pages were at least easy to get through. That's kinda how I feel about A Song Below Water right now. I've made it to about the 100 page mark and it has just finished up with what's already in the synopsis. :(

I definitely understand trying to get books to fit the prompts. We're moving in like 2 weeks so I'm trying to get a bunch of the library books I have checked out here finished. I'm doing my best to get them to fit the prompt but I'm not sure that'll happen. Hopefully the book you need to read while fit under bad boys.

Happy Reading to you as well friend!!

How ya doing today? I haven't read much yet but about to go kick back and see what I'm in the mood for tonight. I can't just stick to one book at a time because I am such a moody reader but I try to have the books I am reading at a time be kind of different in story matter so I dont get confused. lol

Are you a member of Book of the Month? I love that company! If you are what books did you get this month? I picked up by Simone St. James by Lucy Foley by Karen Joy Fowler by Karin Slaughter and by S.A. Cosby

Heyyy. Sorry I've been a little MIA. We moved from NC to TX a week earlier than we were supposed to. Once the internet is up and running Thursday, I'll get everything updated. How have you been? Are you feeling better?

I used to do Book of the Month, I need to get back into because I love the choices they have. All the ones you've chosen look very good. I hope you'll enjoy them.

aww I have been missing my new friend but I had forgotten you mentioned you were moving soon and I know that takes alot of work just moving across town. I can only imagine having to move over a few states! But darn I didn't realize we were neighbors practically before you moved! I am from South Carolina :)

Yes I am feeling somewhat better. It's mostly back pains. My old back is eat up in arthritis and even with meds from time to time it gives me a pure fit.

Out of the books I listed above, I was sooooo excited for The Paris Apartment by Lucy Foley and omg let me tell you that was a long and boring book. I don't know if I'll have time to get my review up for it tonight but it was very disappointing!

No worries it happened way sooner than I thought. Moving across states is definitely difficult. I can't believe we were basically neighbors before this move!!! I'm originally from Ohio but I've done a bit of moving over the past few years.

I'm glad you are feeling better. I hope your back gives you a better time. Back pains are always the worse, especially when you can't really relax because laying on it doesn't really help :(

Awwww nuuu!!! Not The Paris Apartment being long and boring. I hate when it's always the one you are most excited to read that's disappointing. Hopefully the rest of the books are much better than that one. There's a Lucy Foley book I've been meaning to read but I can't think of the name of it.

I've finally finished A Song Below Water and it got a little better by the end but it was just average in my opinion. Now I'm on to trying to finish up A Game of Thrones

ok I have updated my original post Here

I'm not sure if I'm gonna finish either but I'm trying my best. I'm bout halfway through my 4th book and my 5th book being about 1/3rd of the way done

So how'd we do this month girlfriend? I'm so glad I read alot towards the beginning for this challenge because I slumped off bad towards the end. I did my best to complete it but just ain't gonna happen....not for March anyhow. I had 3 tasks left.

-Read a Book with a pink cover
-Read a book about nice Vampires
-Read a book about traditional vampires

If by some chance I complete a book in April for them that don't fit my April tasks I will fill it in to one of them just for the sake of completing the challenge but if not oh well. lol think 9/12 ain't too bad eh?

Heyyy. I've done terribly this month. I kinda fell into a slump after moving. I'm starting to get out of it now. But I think part of that is that I chose to read A Game of Thrones this month which was huge lol. I should probably finish Her Perfect Family before the day is over and possibly The Fury. That would put me at 5 tasks completed. You did very good this month. 9/12 is very good.

Hopefully next month will be a better month for us. I'll probably try and throw some of those books from this month into next month.
