Here's a countdown timer I created. TOO SHORT! (I don't want to lose you guys.)

Thanks Kerri - that is a great plan!

I'm going to go look for a countdown.

Concentrating on colour covers so we can move them across to rainbows if we can -

This looks light blue to me:


What do you think?

Not sure I’ll manage to finish more than that - ..."

That looks light blue to me - and Orphan X is the best! But don't worry too much about colors - I may be being totally wishful thinking about moving some - and I have a decent list - so read whatever you want!

Hooray! Huge thanks to all of you long book readers! It is wonderful having our reading towers officially done!

Of course, if you have one in progress that you can finish - we will LOVE those page points. Or medium books, or short books....love them all.

Sounds good!

New Wheel Tasks (for Tauntaun)

Read a book with a white cover
Read a book with the letters ICE in title (in any order)
Read a book with a large domesticated creature on cover (e.g. horse, cow, donkey)
Read a book with set of at least three repeated letters in the title (example: THI is repeated in the title THIs THIng of Darkness)

Awesome! I'll check those in and get a new spin right after I drop off the grandson :)

Yes! I just came back here to say that - eeeeee! I just did complete update and hooray! I'll admit I stared at it a bit :)

If you cannot fine a place for a book, please just message here. I can likely find something. And read like the wind! (Horrible analogy since the wind doesn't read, but you get what I mean.)

And really, whether or not we win, we'll know we've been trying our hardest!

I went through and made some notes for myself - I can easily free up 8 more common letters in TT by creating another rainbow, if we get to that point.

You are all so awesome! Thanks!

I am about 25% done with my 500 page book, but for now I'm going to focus on reading things as quickly as possible. But I'll finish my 500 pager if we need it.

Anyway, getting as many wheels as possible done is also good. Currently all the tasks are taken.
I need to finish my two Nero Wolfe books, and Leslie has one more left (in our series thing).
Amanda will finish her chocolate book and that'll get our cupcakes done.
Janine has the Gryffindor and Ravenclaw books which will finish our sorting hat.

We don't get an extra bonus, but we do get all possible team tower points (for finishing all the words). If we finish them all and still have time to read, we can juggle some into rainbows.

Adding right now.

I'll try to update all the books tomorrow :)

Cris, Janeylou claimed Gryffindor and Ravenclaw, but I think Diva Haunts the House would work for Hufflepuff since she clearly has the traits of dedication and hard work.

Here we go:
Read a book that would be sorted into Gryffindor House
Read a book that would be sorted into Hufflepuff House
Read a book that would be sorted into Ravenclaw House
Read a book that would be sorted into Slytherin House

I requested our new spin - should know soon!

About moving letters - I think I'm going to wait until Monday, to see what we get (in hopes we finish both).

Nanci - I'll take a look - but that sounds like a brilliant idea!

Thanks! We will pack up from camping this morning and I'll update sheets when I ger home.
