Got about an hour left on my book.

This was in the Floor is Lava thread.

ROUND 3
COUNTDOWN STAGE - WE ARE ALMOST AT ZERO!

Remember....
We start off by shouting "The Floor is Lava! In 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1-0!"
By the time the counter is 0, the floor is Lava and if your team hasn't read the required books, [that is, the 10 books in the countdown stage], your team will be stuck in the lava (i.e. lose points).


ZERO for round 3 is Friday 13th Sept, 9pm AEST for CRATER and MAGMA teams. Countdown is here

ZERO for round 3 is Sunday 15th Sept, 9pm AEST for MOLTEN teams. Countdown is here

I'll finish my book by this evening.

Going in order works for me.

I signed up yesterday. I couldn't resist. :)

I'm planning to read The Likeness by Tana French. One of the police detectives is named Sam O'Neill.

Unless someone else really wants it, I can also take iii - Read a book with a skull or other poison logo on the cover and that contains the word POISON in the text.

I can do the N in Poison.

Also, Laura's right. I can do the first option in Group 2.

For Countdown, I can do any of these: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

Group 1 - O, S, or N

Group 2 - i - Read a book with yellow writing on the cover where the title contains the letters P-O-I-S-O-N (doesn't need to be in that order)
