* both main characters are bisexual, their preferences are barely touched as the books focuses on other themes, but in a flashback Elisabeth talks about some of her relationships and it mentioned a girl with who broke up because she could not truly love her as her heart belonged to someone else and there is a mention if brief of a sexual encounter. The other main character, David, mentions briefly his sexual preferences but in a even smaller portion of the book

*MC and her "father" go camping. Yearly tradition and a trip where they work together on his research. Page 108. Also it is mentioned twice later in flashbacks when she is with her "father" around a campfire in one of these trips!
REVIEW
... And I think I am finished. I read a book about Greek Mythology but I am not sure about the prompt so I won't post it. I think I would be interpreting the prompt too widely as the Greeks Gods live on Mount Olympus. The book was Ariadne in case someone else used it for this prompt! It also mentions sheep once but it mostly talks about sacrificing goats so I don't feel it's enough for that other prompt either :)
It was a great challenge and my fist one in this Group! I can't wait for the next one! Thank you for putting it all together!
Challenge has ended. Thanks for playing!

Goal: Complete as many prompts as you can
Rules: 1. No cheating: only log the books you've started (even if you started it in any other month) and finished [in March] entirely.
2. Have fun! This isn't meant to “taunt” your reading any way, but to, rather, add up to the fun!
Instructions: March is a common month for travel. March is the time of year where most college age individuals get Spring Break. During this time, most students like to travel. So for this challenge, you will ‘travel’ through books. You will travel all over the world and to all the continents, except Antarctica.
This is how the point system works: You'll get 1 point for each book you read, plus points for the page count of the book chosen. You will get 2 bonus points if you've never read the book before. ( You receive 0 bonus points for a book you've read before) For each country you complete, you will receive an additional 5 points. Once you have logged 20+ points, you unlock bonus prompts.
Page count point system:
0-99 pages: 0.5 points
100-199 pages: 1 point
200-299 pages: 2 points
300-399 pages: 3 points
400-499 pages: 4 points
500-599 pages: 5 points
600-699 pages: 6 points
700+ pages: 7 points
