35559 “Forced to make a hard choice” is definitely Here and Now and Then. I finished it yesterday. The MC has to decide whether or not to try to change his daughter’s future at the risk of his life.

I haven’t had a chance to update the spreadsheet of what I’ve read but will do that soon!

35559 Thanks for checking on the boat task Sammy! Bummer but we’ll find something else!
I did finish that book with the time travel so I’ll add it here soon and keep an eye out for how we can use it!

35559 For T42. Takes place on a ship or boat. The book I’m reading takes place in a time travel ship. Think that counts?

35559 So The Empire of Gold works for T47 and might work for T48 and T50 - I did the audio so I am having a friend look it up hopefully. I think he has the kindle versions. Fingers crossed. :)

35559 Also finished Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell today.
I’ll update the spreadsheet with things this and my other one may work for. But I think they mostly only work for things people are already reading for. And only one from each monster. I’ll hold on to them to see if they can work for any new monsters!

35559 Okay I finished The Empire of Gold (The Daevabad Trilogy, #3) by S.A. Chakraborty

It doesn’t fit any current monsters but let’s keep it for one that comes up?? It has a lot going on in there! Plus it’s suuuper long so at least there’s that! :)

And ommggg I forgot we could just keep reading and use them whenever. Yessss. Okay great. I have a book to read before the 24th for my other challenge right now so I’ll just load it all up. :)

I am going to hold off when I get closer to finishing them so we can hopefully use one or both for more than 1 or 2 tasks for a monster. Fingers crossed! I will start up some smaller ones after that to just get some tasks crossed off too!

35559 I am listening to a 20 hour books and a 27 hour book currently so I don’t have anything to contribute as of yet hahah. But I’m hoping that as I get to know these books better one will match up with a whole monster! Or at least most of one!
Cloud Atlas and Empire of Gold. Fingers crossed they can cover some!

such a good series. I feel like I should have saved these for UNO with the lovely covers though. lol"


Haha I always think that when I find color covers “hmm maybe I’ll save this for the next round of UNO…”
I definitely have a list on Libby for color covers. Heheh.

They are doing WHAT?! Ugghhh. I totally agree with you. Just take some pieces from it if you want but don’t say it’s based on something and then have it be completely different. I loved that book back in the day. I reread it recently and still enjoyed it though maybe not quite as much. And then Lestat I didn’t even finish. But I remember never liking it as much as Interview or Queen. Interested to see what they do. I’m gonna go Google more info now…

35559 Talk to me about the penalty for over reading? Because I will definitely read more than the 10 I stated when I signed up because I wanted to not feel pressured this month (after finishing three challenges and captaining two of them hahah). BUT I will definitely read more before mid June, so shall I count them and then yall can decide which to use? Or not put them on the sheet at all?? Let me know!
