35559 I finished Midnight Strikes, and I'll have Illuminae finished before I go to bed tonight. So that just leaves one left in each of those sets. I'll have my snake book done tomorrow.

35559 Dawn’s should be able to go into the Crayola spell out, and any books finished after 6/14 can switch to Tower spell out.

35559 For Dawn’s 2, that might have been Kylie. Just check date started and MPGs.

35559 I have an audio copy of Fairest from my library. But I already have 3 books claimed on the Wheel tasks, so I'll let someone else grab that one if they want.

Tammie has something down for that task. She might prefer to find an author initials in PETRIFIED, so I'll let her answer you on that one.

35559 CB is reading The Left-Handed Booksellers of London. Unless my eyes are missing something, it works for ROOSTER, right?

35559 Hey team! I just want to make sure that everyone realized that we can only use the audio narrator's name for the spell-out if you listened to the audio book. So if you link a different edition on your tower shelf, we will have to change it. :)

No worries. We'll just put Tammie's book in there since it's already completed and then we can put Shadows in Time into the regular spell-out.

Betrayal in Time also links to a Large Print edition. And you have the audio edition on your shelf. Either way, we use the default edition, which is 464 pages.

35559 I can do Illuminae (The Illuminae Files, #1) by Amie Kaufman for Gryffindor if no one else has anything. I love listening to that book!

35559 In case anyone is wondering, or trying to plan the rest of your books for the month, we have had nearly all task sets twice.

Still to come, order unknown:

Star Wars - Jedi
The Muses
Monsters - any of them!

You can check out the task sets for each of these on the "Possible Wheel Tasks" sheet of our spreadsheet.

There is one more Y in Witches of the Bayou. If we get to that one, we can move yours to that spot.

We plan to open up Balefire Dragon next, since it's the shortest remaining one.

35559 Why don’t we plan on that, Stacey, and then if someone finishes something else before you finish your aliens, great.
