thanks!"

I saw that book on the spreadsheet, checked the length, and added it to the official spreadsheet. All without realizing that it was for Meghna, not you. I guess you both read it on the same day!

Beth, I started last night. It’s one I’ve been meaning to re-read for awhile. We’ll see who finishes first. The race is on! :)

@Pooja - it looks like you finished that one yesterday. Books have to be finished after we get the new task.

I’ve got a couple of options for this maze book!

New task!

Task: Read a book where a character is about to celebrate a birthday

And, we need to turn around and go South, so Title starts with N-Z.

Somebody did add it. I checked the word count a few days ago, and it works.

@Amanda - Can you put Mad Man on your Tower shelf, please? Thanks!

Let me ask in the Captain's Group, because I have no idea.

Carrie, that’s correct. Although when the next mini starts, we may need letters again.

Beth, I think the maze is an individual NBRC challenge.

I finished this book which can be used for points pls add my both books."

I've added it. But I only see one book to add. What is the second?

Borrowing Blue

Starting now."

Thank goodness. All my up next books were in the 30s. Except for the one with 52. :)

New Task!

Task: Read a book with 41-50 chapters.

And we need to go North, so Title starts with A-M

I’ll enter it now. Be right back with a new task.

This was the answer when I asked about Started Series and To Start Series tags.

“I've just had a look to see if I could find things that worked as my first instinct was to say no and there doesn't seem to be anything. So yes those tags will work”


So, basically, there are no helps or skips for the maze, but it’s not suppose to be impossible. And we should be using our own judgement on these things!

I just searched my entire Kindle and don’t have any! Might need to use Google books for this one!

Beth wrote: "Jesse has “start” on first page of tags"

That would work. And it has an even # of pages! Are you going to read it, or just offering it up as a suggestion?

Unfortunately, the tasks are random. So there's no telling if another team will even get that task. :)

I added it to my question.

I just noticed that there aren't actually 100 pages of books tagged Started.

Beth wrote: "That one is going to be much harder than I thought. Even the tagged list linked above doesn’t have “started” on first page for most of them since they have a lot more tags before that one pops up"

Yep. I think I'll go to the end of the list and work backwards. I found nothing in the first 20 pages!

Amanda wrote: "I hope so because I'm finding nothing on first pages"

I'm asking in the captain's group.
