perfect, thanks Keely :)

Prob your Turkey and my Greece will be finished about the same time

ah! (sub) tropical islands - I got confused!

Finished .
works for pink cover (just 50%) or #1 in series


I found a collection of short stories with tag Hawaii that I might read next. Being short stories I can leave the last one if Danielle's Hawaii one gets done first :)

It was marked as read, with a date so we could use it. but it's still not on your specific shelf - it'd be helpful if you could add that shelf tag so we can double check books on our sheets and on your shelves

and of course the kindle is complete at something like 67% of that page count #loveanindex

I listened to the audio (author read) which was great - it brought it even closer. A bit like Alice Roberts' - it feels chatty with friends.

So pleased you are enjoying!

Adult BOM Run-Off Poll

There was a tie for the December BOM so we are having a quick run-off poll.

You can find it here: https://www.goodreads.com/poll/show/3...

Do vote! I'm going for God in the Woods as I read Emily Wilde within the last 6 months, but don't let that influence you! :D

wonderful Vikki, thanks!

why don't we have tagged Spain in the gardening mini, eh?!

I'm pressing on with Saint Death's Daughter.
Just started Fire From Heaven - which could work for powerful person - it's about Alexander the Great.
but sadly no cloak on cover :(

I picked up a Greece book :)

We are now all done with the food items, so would REALLY appreciate any claims on the country tag tasks:

Hawaii

Keely's got Turkey in hand.
updated:
Cat : Greece
Danielle: Jamaica

For the Admin, we've got these unclaimed:

the clue to solving a murder is found in paperwork
letters GREY in title
author first & last initials in FILING

update:
Lucy - cover colour is at least 50% orange

Thanks!

amazing work! thanks all :)

and I've found lentils in my current, long delayed book! good reason to focus myself! :)

finished my last for this round!

no lentils nor bonus words. Red cover or #2 in series. or double letter (baRRow)

That's good 👍

Status Update: Minis

@Preeti: any solving of murders via paperwork for your witch cosies? #everhopeful!

(think: clue in a letter / identification papers / following the money trail)

Mini Food Update!

We are getting to the end of our list of ingredients!

Food items we still need are:
apple
beef
lentil
onion
pasta
sugar

ideally with vinegar or lobster :-P

It's a BIG book Elli! Totally understand taking your time over it. I'm doing the same with my Saint Death's Daughter - I'm reading and enjoying but also unable to race through it, so it'll probably end up pushed into next week so I can make sure I finish my U book (don't want to waste a U!)
