Nice! I'll put your name down for one.

Awesome!! I'm going to put your name down for two spots...

and that just leaves two more spots to go

I think I can read recommended by Team Cheery Middlebottom.

We need two more books recommended by other teams if anyone else wants to read for that task.

Hi there. Dropping by from Team Rob Anybody. Click on the link to get our recommendations.

Can the tasks be used for more than one book?

I thought I better ask before I post anymore because I don't want to be costing out team any possible points."

One book per task, one task per book.

For Stop #7, we can do SIO or detour, or book set in Spain or by a Spanish author. The detour is: Read a book with the name of the tarot card "The Chariot" in the text or title. Although I did find some books on my kindle with "the chariot" in text.


I'm leaning towards a SIO of either SPAIN or GRAN CANARIA (we can earn more points with this longer word).

Completion
Stop 4 - 4. Petropavlovsk (RU) - Hiroshima (JP)
Detour: Read a book where the title starts with the letter U

The Unbroken read 4/30/21, 4 stars
