I loved that book. It also started life as a NaNoWriMo project, which gives some of us a beacon of hope. ;)

I recommend this book a lot, it's just great, the images it invokes in me are just amazing, and I'm not one that usually loves setting description, but this book does is wonderfully.

Ms. Marvel 2. Fangirl- Read a book with a fan (it can be the device as well) on the cover or where a character is the fan of someone/something. The Murder House Let's see... several baseball fans mentioned in passing, secondary character treats the main like her idol/hero, and someone's running around committing murders in part to honor a local family of serial killers. 1/3 for Ms. Marvel

This week was very close again and Team Marvel decided it by a small margin.
Penguin was very confused this week, because he got beaten up twice by a Kate, but one belonged to Team DC, the other to Team Marvel.
For Team DC Veronica also got the achievement for being the first player to recruit Batgirl, while proxyfish got the same for adding Commissioner Gordon to her team.
For the Marvelites Clarkiep took the achievement for being the first player to recruit Star Lord.
In the Energy Cell race, Team DC was ahead again with 3 cells to 1.
