Go ahead Jackie!

35559 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.

35559 Which detours to people want to take?
I'm keen for stops 4, 5, 6, and 7
Aug 29, 2018 07:45PM

35559 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?

Aug 29, 2018 06:55PM

35559 Karishma - yes we are. August BOMs count

Teri - 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.
Aug 29, 2018 03:40AM

35559 Teri - Yes! That would be superb

Some of the tasks have been downright hard to find. The ones with book covers the most I think.

True Brookyln. Don't know why I missed that /:

And for Two By Two, it does look like two people dancing. I'm sure sure if they're accept a child and an adult as a 'couple dancing'

I did finally find one that might work The Ideal Bride (Cynster, #11) by Stephanie Laurens
So I can read that

I'm not sure this counts as a feast.
Someone finally replied to my question in the captain's group and they said No to Jackie's books.

I think a book with a feast on the cover would have many plates of food upon a table. Maybe even with people around it.
I've had a look at my books and haven't found one yet but I'll keep looking.
Aug 27, 2018 06:25AM

35559 I added it in Samantha

Two week sounds good to me. University workload will pick up this weekend so I think I'm going to prefer two weeks until October

And Vicky - We're all very glad you're safe back at home!
Aug 27, 2018 06:15AM

35559 That sounds good Brooklyn.

I'll post another update tomorrow and include a few tasks from the other books

I think we will be able to complete books 1-3 by the end of the challenge. Maybe book 4 and a few tasks of book 5.

It has been fun! I'll definitely look out for the next tower teams challenge whenever that happens.

The only other team challenge that I've found in this group is the 'Around the World Team Challenge' where you're placed in a group of 8. It's a bit more relaxed than this one

35559 Teri -
That is definitely a sword.
I'm still waiting for a response from the captains group about more details about the battle. I'll post them as soon as there's a reply.
I've been racking my brain about what books I think will have a battle in them

I'll try and fill in what ever isn't read.
