I'm leaving now to go watch some fireworks so just briefly got on but I'll have my other book done tomorrow and I'll probably have a couple more finished tomorrow too.

Ohhhh, good catch! Fire is an archer, she's the main character. I would also say Fire is very wise in the book. Ch. 19 states "she was suggesting she was too wise with the weight of her experience". It doesn't fit the other things.

I'm working on a book that I need to have done tonight that works for Chimera 1, 3 and 4. Love and Ruin. We are going to watch fireworks in a few hours but I'll either have it done tonight or in the morning.

Just filled it in so now we can get a new monster. :)

I just finished one and will post it soon. I picked one up last night and finished it this morning.

Finished the mystery book and my big book but I'll figure out what all it works for later. :)

I can read that mystery one that was posted. My library has it so I can get it done this afternoon.

Oh you go right on ahead with that one. I can find another book. I was just trying to help move a monster along since I had some downtime. Let me see if I can find an animal book with better page numbers. :)

I found a short fast romance that is tagged animal and has snow on the cover but the page count is only 224. Should I go for that one to knock out that monster or try to find a couple different books?

I'll have my 800 page book done by lunch time and we can bank it. What should I look for to help us get through a couple monsters today? I should be able to spend most of the day reading.

PS: I'm not a huge Epic Fantasy fan so I would need someone to point me in a direction that won't bore me to death if I need to take that one.

I'm back! Okay, I think we can do a little switching around.

Caspian: is 8th in series and in Ch. 15 "we'd spent the day swimming"

Mine to Have: 1st in a new series that's ongoing and is in the 200 page count

I think that 8 may be harder to find and I needed to read that short book for some things. Now, off to put the 800 page book back on audio for a bit.

What are the rules for books working for both the monsters and the team challenge?

That's okay. I'll see what I have in my pile that I can help with these monsters. I still have that big book going on audio that I can finish by tomorrow unless someone else finishes one first.

I think the 8 monster came up after I read Caspian but it's 8 in that series so it should work for the open monster. I think that's where I get confused? Can we use the book for more than one monster that is open?

Yay for new monsters!!! I still have that 800 page book going on audio that I can pick back up but I won't get it done until later this week so if anyone gets a big chunky book done before me go for it. I'm hoping the little books that I need to finish fit a good bit of tasks when I sit down to put them in.

Oh nice! I was thinking the monsters were over at the end of the month so that makes me feel so much better. We will be on vacation July 6 - 11 so I won't be around much or have a lot of time to check in. I will have some books to read but nothing near my normal load and I'm not taking my computer. I'm off work though starting this Thursday until the 11th so I can definitely get some books knocked out during the pre vacation downtime. :)

I finished the 3.0-3.5 rating book so we should be able to move that one along now. Also, I have a deaf book that is still banked and I think we have some books for some of the other tasks banked but I'm not totally sure. I have 3 books that I need to finish before the end of the month and I could add another 1-2 depending on page counts and audio counts. Two of my books are not the greatest page numbers but I need them for other things.

Gotcha. I just filled those in. I found a book between 3.0-3.5 rating that I can put on audio for the day and I should have it finished tonight. I have another book that I have to get done tonight but it's not a bad read so I should be able to finish both before I go to bed tonight.

I'll see about finding a book with that rating to listen to on audio today. I would argue for Maxim because that monster was open last night before we cleared out the last two. That is if The Giver of the Stars doesn't count. I'll see what I can do to find another suburb book that with bad ratings.

Maxim works for subdivision/suburbs. He lives in a subdivision outside of town with a lot of the hockey team. It’s in chapter 2. Sorry went to bed last night and just now checking in.

I'm going to bed early myself tonight so I totally understand the need for sleep! Just finished the book so I'll go update. It fits a bunch of tasks that we have open if we wanted to save Book Lovers and Wolf of Fire for new monsters. I don't know how the fancy spreadsheet works but I put them down as possible choices. :)
