35559 I have one book Minotaurs A Technothriller (The Labyrinth Book 1) by John Triptych . It’s set in Crete and obviously has horns on the cover. It is included in Audible plus.
I might be able to squeeze it in before the deadline but don’t want to if someone else has a current read.
I have one to finish today and will check back to see if it’s been claimed. I figure it would be a good back up for Crete or horn either way. (No farm though 😜)

35559 🥹 sorry about that! I know it’s never fun to read a 1⭐️ book with so many other good books out there

Did they remove your book from that spot? 😳
if so, I would take it back...

35559 Looking through my books for horns , if I can I’ll try to read Minotaurs A Technothriller (The Labyrinth Book 1) by John Triptych

But found some I’ve read which other might want to try
The Beast Within (Villains, #2) by Serena Valentino
And
Piranesi by Susanna Clarke

If anything they might lead to other interesting horn books

~ Finally got around to the buddy reads ! Hopefully those 3 comments are enough.


Also, do we want to try for 5 point books first on the Mini? I've found a horn book and a crete book, but feel like finding a cornupia book or one in Peru, Panama, Colombia or Venezuela might be easier and a book I would rather read.

I agree the movie and book were close together , which also makes sense of why the movies are so long and it took 4 instead of 3 books.
I think I need to re-read Songbirds too... completely forgot the context!
35559 It’s my 3rd time reading (watched twice). Still love it as much as #1. And of course the book is better than the movie, but the movie is pretty cool too!

Rue was my favorite character even over Katniss, though we can’t help but love her too.

35559 I’ve been wondering about that horn task.
Can it be either a horn like 🦄 or a horn like 🎺 ???

35559 We get quite a few tornadoes too here in Texas and the past few weeks have been pretty hairy! Luckily We got a shelter after a bunch tore through just North of us and relocated all of the cars in a dealership 😱 miles down the highway 😳

35559 Hey gang, just checking in. We’ve been without power since the storms blew through 2 days ago. So I’m limited with the internet , etc.
I added a book to my shelf but am sure I didn’t get it to the SS. (Mrs Pollifax and the Hong Kong Buddha) I can look through at work and add suggestions for placement.
Do we need specific book pages? Or can I just give examples of defense, shelter , etc?

35559 Melissa I read the book and commented on my update progresses. Not sure where to participate. But I will do so, guessing you posted a link ☺️ My apologies, this week was hell with work. Tomorrow after my inservice I can put my energies back in the challenge and reading.😅
