mina’s comments from the The Procrastinators Book Club group.

I started it this morning while walking to the bus stop, didn't listen to much of it - up to the point where Alison and the Brie were at the party and split that didn't intrigue me much (but also it's the beginning so no surprise) BUT then at work it was slow and I wanted to read something and I finished that chapter and now I want to know more.

Also, I wished I got to the Selwyn part in the audio because I was ???? how do you pronounce it while I was reading it 😂

The Disappearance of Mr. Davenheim

Let me start by saying I was NOT annoyed by Hastings :O What a shock! He annoyed me so much in the previous books, and the reason I think he's not irking me is that these stories are super short.

Like with 99% of the books I've been reading lately I'm listening to the audiobook and reading along and it's great.. however here it's going to be interesting. Because the first story the audiobook opens with is not the first in the ebook I have, and since it's not split into the stories I have no idea which one is where.

I guess I'm going to read them in the audio order and mark here what I read


✔1. The Adventure of “The Western Star”
✔ 2. The Tragedy at Marsdon Manor
✔ 3. The Adventure of the Cheap Flat
✔ 4. The Mystery of Hunter’s Lodge
5. The Million Dollar Bond Robbery
✔ 6. The Adventure of the Egyptian Tomb
✔ 7. The Jewel Robbery at the Grand Metropolitan
✔ 8. The Kidnapped Prime Minister
✔ 9. The Disappearance of Mr. Davenheim
✔10. The Adventure of the Italian Nobleman
✔ 11. The Case of the Missing Will
12. The Veiled Lady
13. The Lost Mine
14. The Chocolate Box

It's fixed. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

* I just can't wait for Rafe to be betrayed by the horse :D
* Woohoo, Conall switched sides
* Maquin the unbeatable 😂 he seems pretty unreal with how much he survived. He could be one of the Jehar with his skils.
* I know Maical betrayed Ban and that he doesn't trust him, but it's a bit pushing it; telling Maical every time "Oh, but how can I trust you"
* Rafe is so PATHETIC! He's asking for mercy, are you kidding me? He already did that, right? And then he immediately tried to kill them, people are not that dumb to fall for the same thing.
* Viathun makes an appearance, and it's a great one although I wouldn't have minded more of him.
* Craf and Camlin :D

No problem 😃 I'm a mod to help, and help is what I did.

@Laurel I got from work and saw the sheet open so I tried editing it (woohoo, I can), and I fixed all the team sheets.. at least for the Nintendo 1, I didn't see other problems but also I didn't look carefully which doesn't matter because if there is a problem the members should/will tell us.

I'm eyeing it too, just I don't know when my soon will happen 😂

@Elysian I checked your sheet and we missed to input the full formula, will be fixed.

@LaurelSince it's already too late I'm not gonna fix it now, if you can do it it's the Nintendo 1 row, it's missing the start/finish dates part.

Sadly, I haven't read the previous books so it'll be a pass from me.
