Thanks for the heads up! I know that for sure I am one of the ones lagging and I'll sure try to get caught up! If Ii remember right, I said 21 per month - so I need to (or at least will try to) have at least 10 total by the time this round is over. So eeek - yup - need to step up !

I have a big event I'm in charge of on Saturday and should have more time after that (knock on wood).

Somehow I missed the "main character/important character" in my brain - I'll update mine too just in case - to give other options if nothing else.

Wow nice page count - that'll be lots of points!

Date Read: 10/13
Letters: D (Character Izzy Dreshler)

Yes that will be good - and it's nice they decided it'll work for O too - I'd guess that gives our captains more flexibility which is good.

Thanks for checking on the letters for that book title!

And good idea about the Planning sheet and only letters that work

So question for the captains :

I need to read: 1414º by Paul Bradley Carr
I'm not sure what letter we'd say the title starts with, since it's a number. Maybe none? But it could be read "one thousand four hundred fourteen" or "one four one four" or "fourteen, fourteen".

Anyway - not sure if we can use it for an "O" or not.

Letters: Y - Yosef (main character)

My day works great for me - thanks! I'm feeling lucky - maybe it's that rabbit foot.

My Under the Whsipering Door book has the bonus (but I'm pretty sure you already counted that one).

And yay! I got chosen to do questions for the first BOM read! I think for tower I volunteered every time and never got chosen :)

If I get lucky and am picked, can you please put me on any day except day 1? The 16th (and 15th) are crazy for me.

I was super mentally distracted yesterday and couldn't settle to read, but I started (barely) my first book! I'm thankful for reading - it can help distract/calm me :)

Sometimes the time is just not right for a particular book. Lol and sometimes the book is just not right for a particular person.

I'll be interested to know if you like Star Mother!

Oh I'm glad you asked that Pooja. I assumed that was true - wheels on a cycle counted. That is why I marked yes for Under the Whispering door (a parked scooter on the cover). So it is good to check.

Have fun on your getaway Natasha.

Oh I was thinking the challenge starts Saturday?

Although all day yesterday I was thinking it was Thursday, so I'm not a very trustworthy time source :)

I volunteered to do daily questions for the Group book - here's hoping! (Love those extra points....I keep telling myself I'm not competitive, but I just might be.)

I'm volunteering for DQs for White Rabbit
