Thank you to Gräfin Schlotterstein for providing today's challenge idea.

  1. Simon vs the HomoSapien's Agenda:

    For four months now, Martin has had a crush on the new girl. So far he hasn't gotten her to notice him and he's too awkward to approach her. Until, today. Today he found some dirt on her best friend, Simon Speir. Maybe he could keep Simon's secret in exchange for a wingman. Time for blackmail.

  3. That is a really great challenge idea.

    Are the challenges just for fun or are they part of the giveaway or part of something else? Should they be posted here as comments or...? I tried to re-read posts to learn more and I'm probably really overthinking it, haha, but I'm just curious about the challenges.

    1. Hi J,

      The challenges are for fun! We have separate rules for the Grand Prize, which you can read here: http://boutofbooks.blogspot.com/p/grand-prize.html

      You can simply post your answers here, or on Twitter, or wherever you feel most comfortable. Just remember to use the hashtag (#boutofbooks) so others can see your response! :)

  4. This is the coolest challenge ever! Here's my link of my progress. Basically, I fell asleep listening to the eAudio Book so have to start over tonight. That's cool because the performer has a great English accent. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10209682364871758&id=1108855616
