I guess all other tasks can be left alone now.
I think we've done a great job. We're about 6th overall in the TT status and I'm proud of us!

Haha I do that too when it's quiet at work. eBooks are great

Countdown Timer https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown...
Haha okay Karishma.So, you're reading for Book 7, task 1
Read a book with 'Seven" in the title
Read a book 'Seven" in the series name
I'll read a book with picture on the cover
Okay. That's wonderful! I'll read a book with 'seven' in the title to finish that task

Karishma - can you read any books in message 858?
"Read a book with "Order" in the title
eg. Perfekt Order I think is free on Kindle
Read a book with picture on the cover
eg. Undertaking Irene I think is also free on Kindle "
Or Read a book with 'Seven" in the title
Or Read a book 'Seven" in the series name
Okay so...Stop 2 can depart 8 September
Stop 3 we can arrive 9 September and decide on the departing date a bit later but probably 2 weeks
What about this for detours...?
Stops 1, 2, 3 - No detour
Stops 5, 6, 7 - Yes detour
Stop 4 - not sure yet. I know that there is a main character named Temperance Brennan who is a forensic anthropologist in a murder mystery type series (also TV series). So, that might help
Stop 8 - unsure.
I'm going to have trouble with finding a book for stop 8's detour.
I prefer spell-it-out's as I'm going to struggle finding country related books that aren't in UK, US, New Zealand, Australia or Canada.
But I do agree with you Samantha! Reading more diverse books is ideal
Julie - I'm not sure if we can spell out both words. We can ask the Travel Agent and see what they say
And let's prioritise book 7, task 1 and another of one the followingBook 4, Task 5 - The Maze
Book 5, Task 5 - The Lost Prophecy
Book 6, Task 3 - The Unbreakable Vow
Book 7, Task 4 - The Missing Mirror
Book 7, Task 5 - The Battle of Hogwarts
Okay guys - take a pickRead a book with "Order" in the title
eg. Perfekt Order I think is free on Kindle
Read a book with picture on the cover
eg. Undertaking Irene I think is also free on Kindle
Hang on guys, I'll post a mini update in a minute

Okay, I'll start reading a book with 'white' in the title. I will get it done before tomorrow night.Amanda - That's all fine! You've done an amazing job in this challenge
Brooklyn - that sounds good but I don't think we'll be able to finish task 5 for book four.
I've found a book with a picture on it but not one with fairies or pixies in it for task 1, book 5.
Which detours to people want to take? I'm keen for stops 4, 5, 6, and 7
I swapped my book for another one and finished it. 5 out of 9 books have been read so far.I guess we can depart for the next stop if everyone finishes their book by Sunday.
What are we spelling out for stop 3? Spain or Sevilla?

Karishma - yes we are. August BOMs countTeri - yes it should be! There's been no discussion to extend the challenge. We're just waiting for a countdown timer for the end of this challenge.
Teri - Yes! That would be superbSome of the tasks have been downright hard to find. The ones with book covers the most I think.
