Kirsten, it's almost perfect - you just need to switch left and right.Thanks so much for tanking charge of that challenge!
Be sure to say it is MPG Historical, since the description sure doesn't sound like it (except I suppose they mention Regency).Too bad the prince isn't a poet, musician, or dancer :)

Sure - that'd be great to use My Fair Captain for history.
That would be super distracting! But a deck will be great to have.
I moved Cris's book to cover "Love" (the muse) since it sounds like we have our square tasks planned :)If Cris finishes before Nanci, we can move Cris's book to Chaser, Keli's book to Beater, and Nanci's book to a muse.
We got Muses again. I'm going to say we will keep it (even though we've had it twice) because it's a pretty flexible/easy one for us.Pick four different muses and read a book that fits their role:
Comedy, History, Music, Tragedy, Dance, Love, Sacred Poetry, Astronomy, Epic Poetry
I finished my Christmas book a few minutes ago. I need to unload groceries then will mark it as read and get a new wheel thing.
I would suggest with the square, lets just take the first book finished after the Wheel that isn't needed for something else. And run with that. The hardest part of the square is that 4th side.
The two new Wheels:Read a book with the letters SEEKER in the title and/or author name
Read a book with the letters KEEPER in the title and/or author name
Read a book with the letters BEATER in the title and/or author name
Read a book with the letters CHASER in the title and/or author name
And Save Christmas, which is the make the square. For this one it is just matching starting/ending letters.
Thank you! And especially thanks for being such a Wheel champion!

Awesome! Can you put it on your tt shelf?
Oh woah - that's no good! Makes it hard to answer questions :)
Oh! I just noticed! caRRiE SOTO works for Rooster! I'm going to move one of those that were finished after July 10. And yes - let's watch for the pages from that other book - I'd guess they'll appear sometime soon :)

It looks like publication date is July 28, so....even if we don't use it for this task, let's keep an eye open, and try to use it before the end of challenge for something soon as pages show up (if they won't put in pages from the facebook answer).
If you want to ask in the captain's group and show the facebook link, it's possible one of the librarians can update Goodreads and we can use it. It's sure frustrating when stuff like that happens! SEEMS obvious that we should be able to use it, but I guess with as many as play this game...On that note, for the newest wheel, team remember: Books with MPGs Childrens / Kids / Poetry / Play / Graphic Novel / Illustrated / Photography / Art (or which have "Illustrated" in the title or an "Illustrator" contributor in the metadata) must have at least 30,000 words (must be a verified count. sites that provide estimated word counts are not valid sources for verifying word count). ArBookFind is a great site to double check (there are also .co.uk and .com.au versions). If in doubt, ask your captain. A good rule of thumb is that if the audio is over 3 hours, the book will be long enough.
I can read Three Bedrooms, One Corpse for Rooster if the original book won't work, but hopefully we can find verified pages somewhere :)
I updated our books and we narrowed the lead quite a bit since last Sunday. Way to read everyone!
Oh that's such perfect timing!
