New Maze Task!

Task: Read a book shelved (listed on the first page on GR) as friendship - plurals and spelling acceptable

And we need to go East, so Even Number of Pages.

Yes, we can use that!

@Amanda - Can you add the date read to Stiff? Thanks!

And it's on Kindle Unlimited!

Here's where we're at on Monsters:

1. monster slain!

2. Need book title with letters of ZEUS in title - Snowtulip

3. Need 500 - 650 pages; Musical instrument on cover - Snowtulip

4. Need musical instrument on cover - Lisa

5. Need 500 - 650 pages; book that features a sorceress (or witch/wizard/sorcerer)

6. Need 500 - 650 pages; book mentions a volcano, lightning on the cover; title has letters of ZEUS

Sounds good!

I can do The Sun is Also a Star, but it won't be done before tomorrow at the earliest. If anyone else has something, that's great!

I don't know if this folder has all of them, but it has a bunch of the Books of the Month.

New Maze Task!

Task: Read a book that has been a NBRC Book of the Month

Going West would be backtracking, but we can go:

North - Title starts with A-M
East - Even Number of Pages
South - Title starts with N-Z

Thanks, Lisa. I totally forgot about that part.

We need a title that starts with K.

Task: Read a book that starts with the letter K

We can go either South or East.

South: Title starts with N-Z (In this case, we need Author's LN K)
East: Even Number of Pages

Let's risk going East. At least if we have to backtrack we might get a better task! I'll be right back with a new task!

I can do another Jill Shalvis book, but with my Turf Wars commitments, it might take me a few days.

Perfect! I'm just about ready to get through this maze!

I'm about to start Trickster's Choice, which works. But it's about 450 pages, so if someone finishes something else first, great. I need it for another challenge anyway. :)

Between the 2 of you, then, I’ll just go back to my audio. I’m in the exciting parts, where I don’t want to stop listening and switch to an ebook!

We could go West, but I'm afraid we would have to backtrack again. But if you want to try it, post yours when you're done. I'm game. We get 5 points for each book we have to use, which is the same per book for the monsters. So it doesn't cost us anything to use a book for the maze instead of monsters. :)

Impossible Imposter will probably start moving fast for me soon. It just takes her awhile to set up the story. But once Veronica and Stoker get going, there's no putting them down!
