MN Lisa’s Comments (group member since Jul 20, 2023)

MN Lisa’s comments from the Hooked on Books group.

I could probably do Jonathon After All, Just Bromantically Invested, Jaded, Kala, Keeper of Lonley Sprirts...if I can get help fitting them into my solar system challenge too. Pretty Please. :)

I'd buddy read join the club just because I love that book. 😁

I'm going to have to try and double/triple up on books for all of my monthly challenges. If we could find some that:
Read a book with all the letters of "JUPITER" in the book OR series title.
Read a book with something large and red on the cover.
Read a book with a "ORANGE" cover (>50%)
Read a book with a character that holds authority.
Read a book with an MPG of "EPIC or HIGH FANTASY"
Read a book from the Inspiring Books list.

That would be super helpful if they could go here too. :)

I'll spend some time looking tomorrow and Friday. We get the new hunt categories on Friday.

🧩 Prompt #6: Puzzle / Chaos

Type: Mirror Prompt

What this means:
This is a Mirror Prompt, so you and your partner are working with the same theme — but from opposite sides of the concept.

For this one:
One of you picks Puzzle — a book that features mystery, strategy, hidden meanings, or characters trying to solve or understand something. Think clues, codes, or complex plans.

The other picks Chaos — a book filled with unpredictable events, impulsive choices, or breakdowns of order. Think disasters, wild energy, or beautiful messes.

📌 Once you’ve both finished reading, post your Story Stitch (your connection blurb) in the Check-In Thread to unlock your next prompt.

Some stories solve the riddle. Others throw the pieces in the air. 🧩💥

**Sorry. Not sure how I missed it.

I can look when I get home. sometimes a formula did create correctly.

oh goodness I haven't even picked one yet, but what I'm reading seems a bit chaotic, so thata good.

🧩 Prompt #6: Journey / Stay

Type: Wildcard Prompt

What this means:
This is a Wildcard Prompt. Each of you chooses one side of the theme — one selects Journey, the other picks Stay.

Then your partner gives you three book options that match your chosen theme — and you’ll select one to read. Swapping roles after is optional — go for it if you’re up for an extra round!

For this one:
Journey can be literal (road trip, quest, adventure) or emotional (growth, change, discovery).
Stay could mean stillness, holding ground, protecting what’s familiar, or finding peace in one place or state of mind.

📌 Once you’ve both finished reading, post your Story Stitch (your connection blurb) in the Check-In Thread to unlock your next prompt.

Movement isn’t always the point — sometimes, it’s the choice that matters. 🚶‍♀️🛋️

🧩 Prompt #3: Love & Loss

Type: Split Prompt

What this means:
This is a Split Prompt, so each of you will choose one side of the theme — one selects Love, the other picks Loss — and choose a book that fits your side.

For this one:
Love might focus on romance, friendship, devotion, passion, or deep connection between characters.
Loss might involve grief, separation, heartbreak, sacrifice, or the aftermath of letting go.

📌 Once you’ve both finished reading, post your Story Stitch (your connection blurb) in the Check-In Thread to unlock your next prompt.

Two of the most powerful forces in storytelling — sometimes tangled, always true. 💖💔

Done to here.

I'm reading Jar City that will probably work for Puzzle, but I could easily find something for Chaos as well.

🧩 Prompt #4: Power / Disguise

Type: Split Prompt

What this means:
This is a Split Prompt, so each of you will pick one half of the theme — one chooses Power, the other chooses Disguise — and select a book that fits.

For this one:
Power might feature strong leadership, magic, influence, political control, or characters wrestling with strength and responsibility.
Disguise might involve literal masks, secret identities, undercover roles, or characters hiding something essential about themselves.

📌 Once you’ve both finished reading, post your Story Stitch (your connection blurb) in the Check-In Thread to unlock your next prompt.

Some characters shape the world. Others shape what the world sees. 🦸‍♀️🎭

This was really good. I wouldn't necessarily say a Happy Ending, but definitely a satisfactory one.

MN Lisa, Amanda, Jackie and Kirsten would like to team up!

Please and Thank You!

This was a perfect example!

I am picking this up from the library on Tuesday after work.

I will probably start listening to this on Monday on my way to work. I only get about 45 min a day to listen so it will take about a week to finish I think.
