Got it! Thanks I’m trying to plan what to read from here out since it’s not always easy to do when I’m working

Should we also be working on spelling out the characters? Do we know which one counts for more points once we complete the tasks?

I started reading that book and it was terrible. I just found another one so I’ll reclaim that task. I should have it read quickly. Sorry for the confusion

Bk 5 Task 2 Read a book where someone goes on trial

Thanks Donna & Morgan!

Thanks Morgan! I finally have a few hours off that I can play on the computer so I was looking over everything trying to plan my next few books when I noticed it.

Also, I happened to notice when comparing our "claim the task" sheet and the official sheet that there's a book (BK 7 task 2 read a book that is #3 in a series) that Geri claimed and completed but on the official sheet it has Morgan completing the requirement. I just want to make sure we get credit for both books. Thanks!

Hello everyone,

Just wondering what we should be focusing on. I know we are close to completing some of the Team tasks but I also noticed that we are all reading for all 7 books. Should we put more of a focus on those couple of task requirements we need to complete a book or should we just keep going the way that we are? Or should we be focusing on the character spell-out or the maze? I want to get the most bang for what we are reading at this point since time seems to be slipping away quickly. I know we have one more quidditch match before it's all said and done and that takes some of our players away. Thanks for the suggestions!

Go Team Ginny Weasley we may be small but we are mighty!

The Lawyer Lifeguard

Finished: 5 August

Pages: 144

Works for:
Book 5, Task 2, Read a book where the main character is a lawyer

Not bad it took awhile to get into. I had to put it down for awhile because I just couldn’t get into the first couple of chapters. I finished my other book and then said to myself “get to it!” Once I got past the first 3 or 4 chapters it was good. I’m glad I read it since I never saw the movie. I’d be up for another maze book 😉
