Check out the sign up page for complete information but the basics are:
Read six books that have an animal....on the cover, in the title, plays a major role, Main character is an animal or shifts.
Possibilities:


Books read:
1. cover - Rainshadow Road by Lisa Kleypas (butterfly)
2. title - A SEAL in Wolf's Clothing by Terry Spear (Navy SEAL wolf shifter)
3. major role cover - Liver Let Die by Liz Lipperman (duck)

9. major role - Hiss of Death by Rita Mae & Sneaky Pie (animals help protect main character)

um, I'm using Liver Let Die as major role because duck liver plays a HUGE role in the story....as in, no Foie gras, no story! I do have a new Mrs. Murphy cozy....dog and two cats with major roles! ok, ok, Liver Let Die was stretching it!
