I hope you enjoy it. I love that book

I also have a question. For the bingo card it was said we could get creative with how we translate the task. Do you think for B1 Rincewind Scream a horror novel would to much of a stretch?

I added this to the SS under books. I finished it for book club and it didn't fit any particular task.


The Paris Dressmaker by Kristy Cambron

I finished my last group and am claiming 3 more. I have marked them on the SS. If I have missed a message please tell me. It is going to be hot this week here in Vancouver, I am going to hide in my basement. If you live in this corner of the world take care of yourselves.

245 Sheep on the cover
C6 White Horse
E5 DEATH and Cats

Happiness is getting a loaner laptop from work while you wait to get a new computer. I am going to be updating my books shortly.

I also found a Hippo, has anyone else found one? If not I will put in a claim on that task. Why was it easier to find a hippo than a sheep?

Made it to the library late this week. I finished my previous round of stuff and have marked everything on the SS. I also might have found a Hippo. Will double check. Claiming the following tasks.
19 Horse on the cover
78 Turtle on cover
D2 Hourglass

Thank you
I will reserve the library computer to do that more than once a week since editing the SS on the app is nigh impossible.

As someone already filled a book into 158 Spell out KIDBY – K please change my claimed task to F4 semaphore signals . The one I was reading should fit that.

Good morning (well it is morning in Vancouver) I would like to claim 3 more tasks please.

158 Spell out KIDBY - K
243 fossil / skeleton on cover
Bingo square C8 “I aten’t dead”

I finished a few books also, will post after work

I am claiming 3 new tasks

163 features talking animal(s)
165 Rodent on cover
228 Rabbit on cover

If you want to keep it for the bingo task I can cover the talking animals in my next round of reads. I have all the books in the Redwall series.

I am going to be finished with my last book by tomorrow evening and I have 3 more tasks I would like to do. If someone else has claimed them and I missed it I will pick something else

31 Retellings MPG
54 set in South America
128 set in one of the places listed...

I am off work for the next week so I can cover the task no problem. I think I will read the Count of Monte Cristo

Ok, It was written as a novel. If I had remembered that I wouldn't have wasted my time on it. i will pick up a new classic to fill the spot

I think I fixed everything on the books tab. If I missed doing something just let me know and I will fix that. Sorry for forgetting.

I forgot I will do that when I get back to a computer.

Oh my goodness. I found one randomly. Woo Hoo. Will update tonight and we can scratch the most annoying task off of the list. I found morris dancing.
