Just finished the book with the rating in between 3.0 and 3.5 so we can get a new monster now. :)

Then I think we have completed unused L books to cover the rest. But, as I said, I'..."

I was about to come say the same thing! I think we also have some N books banked also. I've found a couple books that work for the rating that I'll get one knocked out tonight.

Our banked books are enough to slay it."

I did it with help from google books ;)"

Thanks! My easy work day went to hell at lunch and I couldn't get back to check things. I'll take that rating. Let me find what I can knock out tonight.

I'm catching up. I'll keep an eye out today to see what I can read to help speed up these monsters. I have an office day so I'll be listening to lots of audio today and I have a lazy weekend that I can work on flying through a few books. If we get the deaf task again, I have a book banked on the list for that one that we can add in if we need to.

I just marked that one to read in case we get the task again. I found a fast historical fiction book to read. The page numbers were 351 so if we needed it then it would work for that also and it worked for Italy and MPG War. I have some 400ish page books planned this week to help with points and hopefully they will fit some new monsters or be good bank books.

I can work on finding something to work for those.

I am a pretty fast reader so is there something that I need to try to find to finish up a monster to get us a newer one to use someone else's book. I have a few things lined up through the week but I can kick something on audio and finish it tonight if I need to. I'm also working on getting the tasks updated for the books that I've finished this week to have them on hand. A couple don't have good page numbers but if we get one of those lower page number tasks then they would be helpful. Also, one has a deaf character in it so that's a good bank book.

I have books to bank but I probably won't get them all updated until tomorrow and probably then I may have a couple more to add. :)

Okay, so I'm sitting here working on planning what I'm going to read for next week. Any tasks that we definitely don't have books for so I can see what I can find that fits other things that I can make fit the monsters? :)

I just finished the Master book but I totally have to go back and answer all my questions. I didn't stay on top of that this time. I have a couple books in that page range to add but they don't meet the other prompts. I just haven't had time to sit down and look up all the things that they work for.

I finished one this morning. I realized afterwards that the page numbers were not the greatest but it was such a fast read so got that one knocked out. Plus it had the right page numbers in it for other things. ;)

I'll take the deaf character. Today got away from me so I'll get my updates done tomorrow afternoon-ish.

I fixed my one book. I had it marked for TT 2021 so definitely off a year there. Work has slammed me this week so haven't had much time to listen to audio or check in but I'm almost done with the never ending Bleak House on audio and I'll figure out if it fits for any other tasks and I finished a book that I need to task up. Good thing I have no weekend plans that I can actually sit down and work on reading and getting things updated.

I’ll fix mine tonight. I also have books to finish from the maze but some don’t fit my other things this week so they have to wait but I’ll finish up two tonight and I’ll see where I can get them to fit for monsters. I’m right there with you on challenges. I have so many going on right now. Oops!

Oh, that makes sense. I'll work on that tomorrow after work with my books.

Cool, I'll work on that. That's a good idea. Sighs default pages is 1013 and audio looks like 33 hours but I'm planning on chipmunk speed so I'm hoping it won't be that bad. It's crazy long but worth some really, really good points.

It's me again and I'm apparently on a rambling spree. I think for my books I may wait to keep checking back after the 15th and see where they fit and then also see what I can find to fill the holes. I'll knock out a couple that I know don't really match until the 15th and then bring books for the monsters. :)

Scratch that I'm going to figure out which tasks are open that I can use for these books. I also have a couple 500 page books for turf wars that I'm going to start but not finish. I'm going to try to be ambitious and hit this super long Bleak House on audio for the week. I'm sure it's going to be boring even on chipmunk speed so I'm going to have to do it for like one of my commutes and do something else for the other but I'm going to make this happen.

I haven't even started the Master book yet and was going to start it tomorrow. You are not alone on the books in progress....so many books started....but they will be good for the monsters. ;)

These look fun. I have a feeling that we may be a little competitive and will end up fighting tons of monsters. Way to go staying up there in 2nd place! I'm trying really hard to watch page numbers over here and I just spent like the whole day catching up on all the things that I let fall behind because I was lost in that maze for awhile. ;)
