DON'T PANIC! ;)

@Lori - let me know how The Village Library Demon-Hunting Society goes. It sounds so fun!

Best of luck today. Sending happy vibes and cheese pagodas your way!

Book is done (Undercover Bromance) and on the shelves. I'll let you guys do your magic from here.

Perfect. Thanks!

I have a book I need to read today or tomorrow so I can return it to the library. I don't have it signed up for any tasks (it's set in the USA)...it could count for some of the letters unfinished in Brazil or Iceland. Would it be ok if I swapped someone for those tasks, so the book can count?
(Can work for a D or L.)

Done. Sorry!

You guys are spreadsheet superheroes!

Random question. What happens when we've capped out on the books we are allotted to read for the month? It'll be a while before I max, I'm just wondering if it's on honor system or if this magical spreadsheet knows to stop counting them...

Melindam wrote: "For Animal, please. More points. :)"

Got it!

I'm reading this book in a few days. Author and book could count for Japan, but it will also work for animal on cover in mini 2.
Which one would be better to place it?

We're having a party this weekend to commemorate 10 years since my mum's death. Wonder if I can persuade the person bringing cheese that it should be presented like ..."

Perhaps if you argue that it's the only way mum would have wanted it. ;)
My heart will be with you, whether you have lovely arranged cheese or not.

Any offers for one of O or N?"

Finished (and claimed) an O.

Melindam wrote: "Could you please add the info to the alternative task, please?
We'll make a copy of the cheese tab as soon as we can. "

Yes! Thank you for everything.

Melindam wrote: "Yes. And it can be used alongside another Mini task."

Is there somewhere we are tracking it? The book I'll finish today can count for one of the Os.

So to be clear...for Cheese we are spelling out Pecorino?

Melindam wrote: "KayLynn wrote: "Awesome! Thank you.

Is this forest enough for the cover on either of these?

"

Yes to both from me. :)"

Ok! I claimed the forest one. I do have a book where the characters celebrate Mardi Gras...which is Carnaval as I understand?
Once I finish the ones I already have claimed I can read that as well.
Then I can start the BOM.

Awesome! Thank you.

Is this forest enough for the cover on either of these?

Mini 2 - Travelling Around the World
Books can be banked for this Mini and this Mini only!

Just to be clear, a 'banked' book is one we read prior to claiming the task?
And does that mean anything I read before itinerary 1 is complete won't count in itinerary 2 or 3? We have to finish reading the existing tasks, right?

I'm sure you could find a way to make them fit! With the letters in Mini 3 maybe?
