Nancy, they aren't showing on your shelves yet. Can you double-check it took the date read?

Oh good! I wanted to use it for "something catches on fire". This totally fits!

35559 I have placed the completed books in our Mellow Mammoths sheet. As I placed them, I crossed out the tasks on our planning sheet so you can tell what it still available.

35559 Ok, folks. I'm going to start placing books now!

We are trying to finish every labor as a team. No requirements per labor but each player must complete two of the tasks before they can help with the bonus tasks.

Go for it, Stacie. You know my weekend is basically gone due to work.

35559 No box sets! But I can do this one if no one gets to it before me.

35559 Let me look. I think the one I'm thinking of is 750, not 800.

Shoot, it's 759. I'll keep looking for this one.

I can reread The Bronze Horseman if no one else has a long one planned. It's 811 pages but I may not get to it until next week.

35559 Anyone have a book with 100 chapters? That one seems like a tough one.

Also over 800 pages?

35559 When I get home tonight I will start entering our books. Remember, they are locked in once we submit, so go for the hardest categories first.

Looks like we are in pretty good shape so far! This team is awesome.

As long as all three books have very obvious tattoos, I think we are good!

35559 I'm going to start filling in the sheet. I was holding off because once it's placed, it's locked in. Let me move some things around and we will see where we are.

**Going to wait to place anything--keep declaring your books and filling in the sheet / read thread.

35559 I think a teacher would qualify for this task.

35559 I love that this book works for the non-profit task. I think we should use it there. That seems like a hard category, right? The color one could be tough, too.

Does anyone else have something that would work for color or non-profit so we can decide where to put it?

35559 It's all good! We can find a way to use them on the last event.

35559 Let's see...BINGO ended at 11am Saturday London time. As long as you finished it after 5am on Saturday morning, we are good. If you finished it prior to that, we can save it for the next round.

Oh, no! We will have to hold onto it if you finished it before BINGO ended. But no worries, we can probably use it for the next event.
