Well done everyone on the wheel and great last minute work there that was smart thinking :)

[Gillian]

I have a buddy read for The Paper Magician i don't know yet if it will have a wand but if it does i will let you know.

[Ashley]

Tree and wand have both been claimed

[Ange]

Can you put me down for O5 - The Burning Bridge

[Kimberly]

Can you put me down for O4 - The Girl with All the Gifts? (6 word title)

or it can be used for I5 (suspense)

It could also be used for I4 (brain) - brains are removed and examined

and possibly O2 - but only if it is written the wrong way... This book is being made into a movie - but it's not a "movie made into a book"

Maybe N5 (hourglass) - but I'm not sure - it's a stretch - I guess you could say they're on the run and time is running out

I think I edited my comment at the same time you posted. Does G2 work? I have to read a book from a short list for a challenge, but there's a few other options if this one doesn't work.

[Viji]

I would like to take B1 - Ice Cream. Will work? Thanks.

[Skandia]

What pattern we need to do?

[Skandia]

If this is unclaimed, I can do a fast read of I2 - Genre is Humor.
I'll read Neanderthal Seeks Human by Penny Reid.

Is it still the genre requirement that Humor needs to be on main page genre list?

I was wondering that too.

I have a few books started supposedly for Wheelathon but haven't finished reading yet. I'll find spots to fit them in.

[Viji]

I would also like to read for N4 - Strawberry. I hope will do .

[Ashley]

Then can I read Reifu Rising for G2?"

Yes - perfect fit

I think we should use this for I1 moon as there is a little crescent moon on the cover :)

I'll pop you down for it and let me know if you want to change

Ashley I am looking through the Bingo rules now and it only says that books need to be finished during Bingo, not started and then says books banked from wheelathon ( which I take as finished during wheelathon but not used during wheelathon should be carried over to the last event.

Have I read that wrong?

[Ashley]

Ah yes you're right Nikk - thanks! I'll delete my other comment so I don't confuse :)

[Nikki the Sapphired Book Dragon]

Thank goodness because I am already 200 pages in to Daughters of the Storm :-P

[kat (wanderfulbooks)]

What pattern are we going to do?

[Viji]

I would also like to take up B4 - Castle in Title -

Let me know how you liked Jackaby, Kathleen. This is on very top of my TBR list.

[Skandia]

I'm so very sorry for your loss, Gillian.

Life is so unfair sometimes :(

[~~~N~~~]

I finished The Shattered Gates and I'm 2 thirds through Reifu Rising.

[Rebecca]

I will take B5 Title Contains Touch

[~~~N~~~]

Symbolism works, right? I'll take Apple (N3) as a symbol for sin.

[kat (wanderfulbooks)]

I'm sorry to hear about your loss Gillian. My prayers for the whole family.

[kat (wanderfulbooks)]

Oh, symbolism works? I finished Love Story by Erich Segal and maybe it could work for O1-yoyo? The book was a shifting of emotions from being happy (up) to sad (down) and vice versa wherein the ending was down. Or is it too much of a stretch? :D

[Kimberly]

I will finish my hourglass book today. I can do MOON or STARTS WITH I next. Which would be more useful?

[Ashley]

~~~N~~~ wrote: "Symbolism works, right? I'll take Apple (N3) as a symbol for sin."

Yes that works

[Ashley]

Great thinking Kathleen - not too much of a stretch!

Take your pick Kimberly - just post which option you've decided!

[Moderators of NBRC, Challenger-in-Chief]

SHARK!



Ack! A shark! Does that make you sharkbait?

[Ashley]

SHARK!

A shark has eaten Kathleen's book for the keys (picture) card.

We will need to read another book to fill it!

Kathleen's book isn't lost forever as we can use it on the BINGO sheet we get.

[kat (wanderfulbooks)]

My heart leaped at the shark! LOL this challenge just got exciting.

I think it was Noa who read for the key goal :D

KEYS is a picture card so if we're going for symbolism again, I just finished The Lathe of Heaven (lol after a month!) and maybe it could work for keys: what the MC dreams about is the "key" to how life revolves. Basically he has the ability of changing the world by dreaming about it and then his doctor is trying to manipulate his dreams to achieve his own plans for the world.

[Ashley]

Yes it was Noa!

Maybe I was just predicting that you'd fill it ;)

OH! Noa is avenged! I think it is Shattered Glass and the Shark is going to have a difficult time swallowing that!!

[Kimberly]

I finished The Girl with all the Gifts. Hourglass goal.

I'll read Cut to the Bone next. It has moonlight on the cover - for the moon goal.
