I'm currently reading a book for 20.8.

We don't need to use News of a Kidnapping for 20.10 as I have plenty to read by male authors for that task including the book I was intending to read for canon points World's Fair.

In post 369 I posted Ship of Magic for task 10.7 with 15 jumbo points.

And also 10 combo points for me for A Far Cry from Kensington in post 303.

The one I am looking at reading now was born in 1949. I also have another I am thinking of reading who was born in 1975 so they could finish that square if no one has another.

I have claimed Use of Weapons for 15.5 in post 347.

I think we are looking good for the I column, I also like row 3. I currently have a book for 20.1 and another for 20.3. (I would be happy doing all three of the winners as I have so many possibles.)

I could read a canon if that would complete a square. I am thinking of World's Fair which could work for 10.8 or a male author for 20.10.
