Task: Read a book that is in the "The Best Urban Fantasy" Listopia List (https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/5...)

H- Heidi by Johanna Spyri 11/6 4★
A- The Mirror Crack'd from Side to Side by Agatha Christie 13/6 4★
L- Love Letter to Lola by Carmel Bird 12/6 3.5★
T- The Broken Spine by Dorothy St. James 9/6 2.5★

B1A3 done & ss updated - N'Tsuk.

Do we have to read them in order or can we all read at once?

There's a few starting with Engender/ing, such as Engendering America: A Documentary History, 1865 to the Present, then you have Vengeance in Death.

Probably interesting though."

Ooh! QQA would be nasty.

Oades Paris 2024? Oadenol's Codex?

The Road of Lost Innocence: The True Story of a Cambodian Heroine? NCE would be hard to find.
The Road to Oz - I suppose there are books starting with ooze.
The Road to Bittersweet - EET?

Not that I can access any of these.

Sure, I'll read it.

N'Tsuk by Yves Thériault

Found one for NTS that is accessible.

Ah! I see. Then I suppose Clubbed to Death would be ok, but that old favourite Lubricating Grease Manufacturing Technology would be better 🤣

Here's a good one but who'd want to read it

Lubrication Fundamentals

or, Lubbers Afloat - impossible to find

another great one - Lubricating Grease Manufacturing Technology
& of course - Lubrication for Industry 😂

more erotica, no doubt Lube Job, Lube Job, Lube Jobs: A Woman's Guide to Great Maintenance Sex

I'd be happy to read Clubbed to Death.

I suppose that would give them an easy 5 letter start with 'death' - I'm not sure how many letters you can use.

There're lots of books starting with Club or The Club - mind you, many of them are erotica.

Looks like supply drop was worth it.

Of course there is! I remember you saying that earlier but I forgot all about it. On the ss is fine just as long as I don't forget 🤦😖

My last couple are in. Can we get a countdown at the beginning of this thread so I don't have to keep working out when the round starts & ends? For the next rounds, anyway.

Cornucopia
Kylie - The Seven Imperfect Rules of Elvira Carr..."

I'll finish this in time.

How nice!

I should get my 2 done in time.

Are these horns OK? I hope so because I'm looking forward to reading this after all these years.
