HRCYED 3.0 x Pagebound Quests (Titles Edition)
If we are going to do Qwordy's the Hardest Reading Challenge You'll Ever Do 3.0 - we should probably get some Pagebound badges along the way! I'm specifically going to be adding books from Quests and readalongs that go past the July start date and match at least one of these title prompts: Periodic Table, Familial Terms, Rainbow of Words (also Joseph's coat), Numerical Titles, Titular Counting 5+, Pun in the Title, and First & Last Name in the Title. Recommendations welcome!

Here's every book so far from BOTM's monthly shortlist since February 2015 for anyone who wants to read them all like I do!
Reality TV Setting
I can't remember the title, but the cover is blue
Ah yes, this ol' issue that has plagued librarians and bookstore clerks for decades.
And sometimes you find the right book, but... can you even call that shade blue?
“Reality” Show Fiction
novels that feature a reality show, and in exploring the behind-the-scenes, expose how scripted “reality” can be…
suggestions welcome.
Influencers in Fiction
Novels where being an influencer is a big deal. I made a separate list for Novels About Podcasters - Novel Another Podcast, ugh.

ISO‼️ Plus Size Recommendations
Please tell me your 5-star plus size reads! AND whether the story is mainly about being bigger (eg: Mile High) or if the character is repping for the curvy but focused on other aspects of their life (eg: Next Best Fling).
Watch What Happens
Reality TV books with romance
City of Angels
Romance books set in Los Angeles and its environs
Lights, camera…love!
Books that are set during reality show or any type of beauty pageants.
romance in reality tv
inspired by my simultaneous binge watch of old seasons of love island and survivor, alongside the current season of big brother. Romance books that take place on/around reality tv/tv sets. Bonus points given to competition reality!
