Sophie’s comments from the Nothing But Reading Challenges group.

We can redo each district as often as we like so if there's one we have loads of books banked for, we could do it 3 times before moving on. On the other hand if we just scrape through a district and it gets repeated 2 spins later, we can chose to move straight along to somewhere else.


For the spell outs when we finish one spell out we can choose to either keep repeating it or spin the wheel and see where it lands.

I think grain is good.

Then for coal mining if we can find a coal fire, a lump of coal, a miner maybe.

Trying to think of I've seen books with a nuclear symbol or some way of depicting a bunker

Another option is that we try to find books for all the district tasks on the wheel and try to spin for a complete set. That way we can get the trickier books chosen and maybe read early and just bank them until needed.

You can have as little as 1 page left at the deadline and we are happy for it to count.

Richard please!

Quick reminder that battle books need to be in by tomorrow morning!

There's a fair number of martial arts going on - judo at the moment and I think taekwondo and possibly wrestling later. Can't remember if surfing is yet but skateboarding, BMX and breakdancing are!

Currently refusing to vote because I can't pick. Hopefully sleep will make the decision clearer.

What have you done?!

That is a horrible combination.

I'm sure you'll find out about the next challenge in the next couple of days. It'll put you in a spin.

I think we need to finish by Monday (29 July) 9 am utc."

Thanks Mel! That's right on the timings.

Funny Story isn't available at my library and I'm cheap when it comes to buying books so I'll be giving this one a miss.

I'm with you on this. I don't want to know the ending when I start.

Tom Ellis!

Maskerade is one of my favourites! Currently have The Fifth Elephant on the go and 2 Pratchett at once is not a good plan.

But, Kane. Yes."

Is there a selection of round 4 that hasn't? I don't think the randomiser can throw up a nice combination any more.

Mine is currently acceptable but not great. Don't have an enormous amount of enthusiasm to sit and read it unfortunately.

That sounds like a great idea Domi. Go for it!

It's not a problem at all, and is part of why we are here! Especially since one of the reasons for your confusion is that we move and hide things.

Ah that's because I've shifted it over to the main SS this evening and put it in for another resource piles.

If you ever can't find something, you can try take off the filter on column B and it will probably reappear.
