My most recent Snakes and Ladders book, Ever Strange by Alisa Woods was super fast to breeze through, and probably another one of my guilty pleasure reads. Not even a full day and I had it finished... okay, maybe about a day...
Anyway, moving along to the my last dice rolls!

Basically, all of my hoarded books DID come in handy at one point or another throughout this game, and very much so with these last three rolls.
Long story short, the next two rolls after finishing my last book were both eights, which managed to land me on squares where I could fit a book I'd already read into.
I landed first on Square 90: A new-to-you author, then on Square 98: Title starts with any of the letters in LADDERS. In which I inserted the following two books, respectively.
Dangerous for square 98 speaks for itself, and Indigo is the first Beverly Jenkins book I've ever read. It all fits!
And since I was on square 98, and was able to insert a book that fit the prompt, I was able to roll two dice, which pretty much meant that anything I rolled would have landed me on the last square, Square 100: Let BL pick it for you: post 4 choices and read the one that gets the most votes!
I rolled anyway and got a 4, but that's a moot point now. I made it and will have a poll up shortly so that everyone can tell me what to read next!
(I am no longer showing what books I'm currently reading and what books I've hoarded for future use, because it won't matter anymore. I'm at the end! In case anyone's wondering...)
