That's awesome, Mary-ellen! We smoked 'em!

Yay! And hope your power is back!

My banked book Avenue of Mysteries could be used for the "A" in spell out of HEART if you want, Laura.

Great idea to make a planning tab. There is so much going on!

Oh no, Laura! I'm so sorry about Mittens and how traumatic for your daughter to have to witness that. Also sorry you're having to deal with flooding and no power. Hope tomorrow things smooth out for you.

Laura,
For Card 5, the book I'm currently reading has all 4 directions in the text in it...east, west, north, and south. Do you want to put me down for one of them and then we could change it as needed?

How it fts:
Banked book: Dogs on cover in desert
circus, Virgin Mary and many religious themes and symbols, orphans, prostitution, transvestites, Viagra, medication beta blockers, Mexico, Phillipines, priests

I finally finished that I have been listening to for awhile...17CDs! It was a big, fat zero and so disappointed in John Irving, who I really like. Well, it's done and I'll add it to the Read thread.

PS-I have no idea what any of those cards mean, except for card 1!!

Ok team, I have finished my book Avenue of Mysteries for the final leg of our journey!

It was wonderful playing this game with all of you and learning lots of things about some countries that were new to me! Hope to see some of you again in future challenges!

Also I have #1 in series I can read The Onesies, Fall

Very rainy here today from the hurricane near the coast of VA, but we are driving to the mountains to go apple picking today where it is sunny and dry. Time to read in the car!

Great planning, Laura! Thanks and it makes it really easy to understand and see the patterns.

I have requested it from the library and hopefully will be able to start it on Monday. Meanwhile, I'll be reading my other book.

In looking around some if we still need #5 in a series I can read Anne's House of Dreams from the series Anne of Green Gables. I loved those books when I was a child and would get a hoot out of reading one again. The word count is 78,896 if that is acceptable. If not again just let me know what I can read to help and I'll do it.

Wow! A whole lot happened today while I was gone! I want to read what is most needed, but not sure what that would be. I can read any number in a series that is needed or whatever else is needed. I never read series, but happy to do so to help the team. Until I hear from you, I'm just going to start a new book that I've been waiting to read (sounds like it can be banked and used for possible quest or to buy gold pieces.

I finished my relay book for Bonus 29. Hooray! Glad to have finished my last commitment for Bookules. Ready for Emerge the Victor!
