If it's The Strange and Beautiful Sorrows of Ava Lavender, I'm pretty sure it will fit the Ghost task ;) Thanks!

I'll put you in that spot for now... I'm pretty sure the War genre is not topping the Polar Bear to-read list ;) lol

I've heard from Kat, she will not be able to join in for this challenge. School has been keeping her busy.

The only problem for those that did not read 2 main labors, is that they cannot read for a bonus. So I think we can just jump in and pick what we want. If they haven't been around so far, I cannot imagine they will be reading bonuses.

I'm currently looking for a ghost book that I want to read :)

Lastly our most current bonus discusses 3 of us reading books that have something in common with each other... I think we should focus on our main labors and finish our other bonuses first.

Input? Suggestions? ????

Great! I put it under the Bonus, but will keep in mind for main labors if needed. Also, if it's an audiobook will you post the page numbers for me? It will save me a step in the override process. Thank you dear ;)

I don't know which category it'll fit in."


I put the book under the task under - Read a book that's title starts with T.
For your next completed book, PLEASE look at the spreadsheet https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/... , and decide which tasks your book would fit. We cannot choose these, as We did not read the book. As a participant in this challenge you have to decide on the tasks the book you read could possibly fit. As a captain my decision is to arrange everyone's books to complete the tasks (in addition to other jobs). SO, please take a few minutes to help us and list your Labors. IF you do not understand how to choose these, please message me. I would be more than happy to help you ;)
