I'm doing book games also and it's really hard to stick to the tbr! My biggest culprit is library books though. I end up reading whatever comes in for me instead of what I planned to read. And none work for this challenge or else I would have read them a long time ago. lol

I might be able to finish one more but not sure yet. I usually update the spreadsheet as soon as I finish so as Stacie said, if it's not there at the round end it's because I didn't finish. :)

I'm super behind. I may have signed up for too many challenges. lol

Yes I had heard. I'm a little disappointed with the casting because I honestly always thought of murderbot as more gender neutral/female leaning. Probably because I didn't listen to the audio until book 2.

I'm reading Network Effect #5 right now and loving it. Listening to it on audio which is so fun.

So we'll know all the titles by the end of week 1 but have to start and finish them all within week 2? oh boy... I get so many books from the library that one week isn't a lot of time.
Also if we supply drop a title to our partner district, does that mean we don't count it on our spreadsheet?

He's a mad scientist botanist who appears to finance his experiments through selling plants to his fancy rich select clientele. It's not really a business. I think I was optimistic when I called it a flower farm. lol

It takes place in a botanical greenhouse, but I'm guessing that doesn't count as a farm, right? Even though it is treated as a flower farm - he grows and sells flowers to customers.

I'm on hold for a digital copy but don't know when it will come in. I also have a physical copy from the library but haven't a clue how to easily search that. lol

I'm reading A Botanical Daughter on audio - if someone has a digital copy of it, could you check if it has the words harvest or abundant/abundance in it? I feel like it should - it's so lush and full of plants and flowers - but I am terrible about noticing specific words while listening.

If anybody is still looking for a book with food items on the cover, I came across this one:

Judith - C17 is highlighting ROW as the hidden word, which is only 3 letters, but if you used OWNED instead, it would work. :)
Sofie - For C18, OUR or WIN are only 3 letter words. It needs to be at least a 4 letter hidden word.

There are loads of cozy mystery books with several food items on the cover. Unfortunately, this is not a genre I enjoy.

Sorry to rain on the parade but I don't think the two titles listed in c16 and c17 will work - the hidden word needs to be at least 4 letters, right?

Can Harry Potter and the Cursed Child count for this challenge? I know it's written like a screenplay, so I wasn't sure, but it has cornupia in the title so worth checking. :D

Well I certainly noticed this line:
- Protecting supply piles: Supply drop books must fit into that category AND have some type of shield/defense. These would need to be separate. So if you want to use a supply drop book to protect your defense supply pile, the book needs to fit into the defense category in 2 different ways.
Hmmm.... so it sounds like there might be raids happening on our supply piles at some point in the future. If that's true, should we consider any strategies for how we're accumulating supplies right now? And will only supply drops work to protect our supplies? Or can we use our own books?

I'm confused about what the shelter letters in title or food letters in title means? Is that literally the letters f-o-o-d in the title? Or does it mean letters that make up any food?
