You have it down for 'animal in title' for the Cuckoo but a bingo would work as well

That was a great find Stacey. Thank you for reading the book for a harder task. I added Sleeping Beauties in for the moth/butterfly task :)

Oh no Lisa! Maybe you'll get DQ for the 3rd DW BOM if you sign up for them haha :P

Hopefully it's a good book as I am yet to read one

Oof. Yes I can see why you think the movie is better than the book. Addressing body positivity is a win in this day and age. Jennifer Anniston is in the movie as well I think, who I love. And at least you liked one of them! :P

Thanks Celia. That's amazing information. You also said it would work for H3 - Blue warrior in tartan. How does that fit with the book?

Thanks Kimber! I've added the books in.
I only found Where the Forest Meets the Stars a spot for the moment :) I will see what I can do about the other 3

No worries Namita. All's Fairy is now on task 180 and Gideon's Sword has now been added in :) Thanks Namita

Yes that's right. You need to read it for this challenge to answer the points. It's such a bugger when those situations happens :P

Oh that's a shame! How was the movie better? I saw the trailer and it didn't grip my attention which is why I'm not that keen to read the book

We can use any Discworld books, including the BOMs. So yes, we can have all of them be Equal Rites if that's what we read. Doesn't need to be separate titles.

So far, I have put down 3 Equal Rites books read by you, Karen and Sally for the discworld reading bonus.

@ Namita - You said that works for task 61 - read a book where someone changes job, what character and what job?

Also for , I'm getting the page count added to the book as it didn't have it. You said that this is set in a university, what university and where is it? (if the location is mentioned)

It’s just any Discworld book even if it is or isn’t BOM. Which is super great as it’s flexible

But if both I think haha. Some questions in the back room...
Haha they make me laugh

I reckon that works Lisa 😊

I managed to get Day 4 DQ for The Midnight Library. Yay! More points

Time is definitely flying! I'm hoping I have a quieter June than my May so I can read more

Yep, perfect! I was wondering how we would fill it. I could only come up with the letters of Ooook in the title
