35559 We got another Typhon! I think one of us angered the randomizer god. This is our 17th monster, and our fifth Typhon! That's nearly 1/3 of them!

We still need a book for this one. I'm sure one of our unused books probably fits, but I don't know which ones.

35559 We have a new monster!


Cretan Bull



The Cretan Bull has been spotted running amok across your lands destroying defensive walls and crops alike. He is hard to defeat and really should of been sacrificed as the gods intended. Also, not opposed to participating in some marriage infidelity. So there may be some surprises popping out 9 months from now.

To vanquish this monster you must:
1.) Read a book between 350 and 450 pages (inclusive).
2.) Read a book with a white cover.
3.) Read a book where something physical is destroyed (e.g., building burning down and not a relationship being ruined).
4.) Read a book where the MC ignores important advice.
5.) Read a book with a 7 in the page count.


Let me see what we have that fits.

35559 So far we have 1 non-fiction, 1 space opera, and 1 horror. If we could get 1 more of each, that would probably be great! And then we could use 4 Romances.

35559 Add them to the planning spreadsheet and put W in the mini code column. I believe we still need to put them on the main spreadsheet in order to get page points for them.

35559 Perfect! We had a book that’s long enough, so that will knock out the newest one.

35559 It’s the first page of shelves, after you click Top Shelves.

I read Zeus. It’s on KU, fits 4 of the 5 tasks, and wasn’t horrible. Don’t let the #6 scare you. It works as a standalone.

35559 Snowtulip! I feel like every time you find a book for Zeus letters in title, we get another Typhon before you can even read it! :)

Task: Read a book with a flower on the cover

And we need to go South, so Title starts with N-Z

35559 I just started a non fiction this morning. But it’s our mpg animal book. I think Amanda is our go-to reader for non-fiction. Although Michelle and Snowtulip read their far share as well.

35559 It goes to the 15th. And we actually have another Typhon, but my mouse died before I could update the spreadsheet.
