Yick. Sounds rough. I hope it improves soon

Just go with the edition that is your ISBN for the page count :)

And you can ignore tineye - it looks green to me too!

Sounds like a plan!

I’m going to get through my current reads and then go looking for some more locations 😊🤞👍

Elisabeth wrote: "Can we read more than 10 different locations now? I found that new ruling ambiguous. Or do they just mean we can double up on our existing 10?"

We need to still cover off 10 unique locations. Provided we have done that, we can read for more locations as much as we like up to a maximum of 3 per location.

Does that help?

Morning team!

We have finished our first spell-it-out of Didgeridoo - woohoo! No doubt we will be sick of D and O by the end of this round. haha

And great reading Lisa, you've been smashing it!

Provided we have covered 10 unique locations by the end of the round we can also read for additional locations (a max. of 3 per). We have 10 listed on the tracking sheet so should be fine, but if you find you can't read one for any reason please shout out.

We can also have 10 green books and 6 on tracking sheet at the moment so feel free to dig out another :)

Sorry! Try this one https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Update to round two bonuses

Means we can now find 10 green covers and we can find each location 3 times for extra points 😊😁

I've volunteered for DQ's, anyone else want to join in?"

They both look interesting but I’ll need to check my libraries

I finished

which I'm all a bit confused over tbh!
But it has a green cover and works for vowels.

new spin
100-250 pages

Reading

Listening to “As it was” by Harry Styles

Actually fits quite well as the gang do reminisce and think about ‘as things were’ while solving a murder!

I can read for round 2, based in Havana

nice!

I finished - great page turner! That is my last one for the round. I'll now focus on round 2

Left in our current spell-it-out is N, S, R

I've almost finished my Y (less than a half hour of audio to go)

Finished for Z

It is a good quick read for anyone interested in learning more about gender dysphoria

we still have a day and a half so may as well

Thanks ;)
Lots of big drugs so I'm sleepy but otherwise fine
