Romance Readers Reading Challenges: Yahtzee Challenge 2015 / 2016

Yahtzee Challenge hosted by Romance Readers Reading Challenges on Goodreads.

I took part in this last year and I enjoyed it quite a bit. This year there are new tasks to do for some of the rolls.

It's a 13 month challenge, with the participant 'rolling the dice' once a month. The dice need to be rolled between the 28th of the month before and the 5th of the current challenge month. You will then have the rest of the month to complete that month's task.

Only one task can be completed each month. There will be no scorekeeping, instead, you will put the title of the book(s) and date you completed the task next to the task name. This means you have completed that task for the month and you cannot do the same task again.

For Ones - Sixes - you need 3 of the same number to claim that task. It could be more, but at least 3
