She was shot protecting the president, and woke up naked, in the arms of a hunk... A hunk named Kahn, who told Secret Service agent Tessa Camen an outlandish story about traveling through time, saving the world, and a Challenge only she can accept. Kahn offers her proof she can't refute: Tessa has been brought forward through time to save Earth by winning an intergalactic challenge. Kahn only has a few weeks to train Tessa to use the psi-abilities he insists she has. He is confident in the success of a time-honored method that uses sexual frustration to bring out her powers, but Tessa is dubious. She's a martial arts expert and can fight her way through anything, but she's never had much luck with emotions. Luckily for Earth, Kahn can be very convincing...

Made some adjustments #BFC21 I wanted to walk/run every day but got some aches so now I‘m alternating with yoga which is good. ✔️
I meditated 5 days ✔️
Finished one book and with buddy reads I should finish 3 more by the end of the month. ✔️

Crazeedi Sounds like you did really well! 👏👏🎉 3y
Cuilin @Crazeedi thanks. I returned to work this week too so I tried to be reasonable with myself. How are you? 3y

Yippee!! 🏆 🏆 🏆
I started the year with a goal of 150. With Covid shutting everything down, I ended up reading a lot more than I anticipated. I also credit readathons and the #scarathlon for pushing me along. I don't think I'll edit my goal any more, so everything from here on out will just be bonus.

How's your goodreads challenge going?

TheSpineView Great job! 🤩🤩😋 3y

HELP!

I've been AWFUL at gauging what I want to read lately. So, I figured I'd issue a Reader's Advisory Challenge & see if anyone feels like playing! For guidance, I'll list the genres I typically like & some titles I've enjoyed recently in the comments; otherwise, go nuts! Try to limit yourself to ONE stand-out book suggestion (but I'm open to a Top 3 if restricting yourself is far too difficult). ;)

Excited to see what you all come up with!

monalyisha Genres:
Literary Fiction
Speculative Fiction
Memoirs (esp. with a religious bent, a la “Priestdaddy“ & “Educated“)

Titles:
“Dandelion Wine“ - Bradbury
“The Sisters Chase“ - Healey
“The Flatshare“ - O'Leary
“Sadie“ - Summers
“Sing, Unburied, Sing“ - Ward

merelybookish Been recommending this to everyone! 5y
Hooked_on_books Phenomenal book. If it feels a little redundant early, keep reading—about 1/3 of the way in it gets completely turned on its head and is so worth it. 5y
xicanti I highly recommend Andre Alexis‘s latest, 5y
monalyisha Thanks @laur89, @Mdargusch, @cobwebmoth, @merelybookish, @Hooked_on_books & @xicanti! I‘m definitely planning to check a few of these out! (@merelybookish I read “Normal People” recently...mostly in the bath! I enjoyed the writing!) 5y
Crazeedi @laur89 that book stayed with me for a long time, just.wow... 5y
laur89 @Crazeedi Yep! Totally worth a re-read. 5y
