Sandy, I can read Heaven and Hell, if you can do Country Heaven?

I think that’s the relay accounted for:

Sandy - Country Heaven
Emma - Heaven and Hell
Danielle - Hell Fire (alternative option)
Linda - Fire Country

I haven’t been able to figure out another relay yet and I have to head to bed. I’ll pass the baton on to someone else who may be able to find another relay. Obviously if the above one works for the team, then that’s fine too :)

So, I realised the Final Girls provably isn’t good to use as the fourth book would have to end in the word ‘Final’ which is not a normal word to end a total in. So, I’ve been going around and around trying to find a relay and have come up with these options. However, we would need to find some Newts who would be interested and able to read them. I’m obviously happy to read one of the books. If anybody has a replacement title that would work for one of these books that would be fine too.

Fire Country Country Heaven Heaven and Hell Hell Fire

I’m going to see if I can figure out another relay and will back with another option hopefully.

Longest book I’ve read in a while but thankfully also one of the best books I’ve read so it was an enjoyable 1009pages. :)

I found this definition of a cottage and going by that your cover fits as a run down abandoned version. I’m sure it would have been cozy in its prime :)

A cottage is, typically, a small house. It may carry the connotation of being an old or old-fashioned building. In modern usage, a cottage is usually a modest, often cozy dwelling, typically in a rural or semi-rural location.
