Alternatively I could start with

1. The Friday Night Knitting Club
2. Club Dead

Leaving Dead as the first word for Book 3 - does that help?

Thanks guys for the birthday wishes. Nothing special organised other than a dinner with my partner and daughter and having lunch with my mum today.

I have been gifting myself with a whole heaps of books lately telling myself I can spoil myself for my birthday LOL! And I sent a link to my goodreads birthday wishlist to all my family so they knew what to buy me :-)

[Ashley]

Best way to spoil yourself ;) I got a Dymocks gift card for my birthday and I STILL haven't spent it...

Someone who created an account today put up a strange rant then posted a very disgusting pic. Looks like they spammed it on heaps of threads.

I'd like to do the someone's name in the title task.

Just to check, the only other task I'm signed up to be reading for is the musician character one, right? I'm reading for it right now, but I wanted to make sure I'm not neglecting something I've forgotten about.

Oh, well I'm glad they removed it. Sorry you guys had to see it :(

[Kimberly]

I'm away for work and completely out of touch with where we're at. So many new posts! o_O

I didn't have any books downloaded except one on Overdrive so I've started it. I don't think it fits anything though.

It's Glitter baby in audio - with the car & white dress on the cover.

I'll post the cover of Lock In when I'm back home so we can decide if it will work for party decorations. It has lots of little toy people on the cover.

Happy Birthday, Nikk :D

[Ashley]

Did someone mention reading Ready Player One? This could be used for; Read a book about a treasure hunter. Vengeance Road and Empire of Storms should work too

[Kimberly]

Party decorations isn't on that list?

[Gillian]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Nikk xoxoxo

That was me i was going to read it for red cover but did not get the go ahead but i can read it for treasure hunt if you want as i have done the red cover with a different book.

[Kimberly]

Ready Player One is such a good book!

[Ange]

I love that book too

Sorry - I thought I replied! I checked and it was a no for the red cover.

Yes that would be really good! Treasure hunter is a bit of a tricky one

That's because Gillian is popped down to read it - I can't see a message claiming though.

Gillian are you reading for this?

BONUS LABOR 7


Geryon has three bodies connected together so when he fought Hercules he had 3 shields, 3 spears, and 3 helmets. That's so not fair! Gather 3 items of your own.

Read 3 books with similarities on the cover. Such as, 3 books with red covers, 3 books with cowboy boots on the cover, and 3 books with birds on the cover.


◈ Similar Book 1
◈ Similar Book 2
◈ Similar Book 3

Points: 40

[Gillian]

I can read for 500-600 pages if no one is doing that one already.

[Ashley]

No one has claimed so I'll pop you down

[Kimberly]

I'll read the book starting with "Summer" next to finish off the relay. I'm on a waiting list for Summer in Tuscany - but if I can't get that one, I'll read a different one. Either way, I'll cover it.

I won't commit to the Party Decorations cover because I'm not sure the book I was thinking of would work anyway. It was :




The book I'm reading now could probably work for Treasure Hunter. The mother in the book starts out at a young age, dating celebrities. She has Errol Flynn's child. She is very focused on money and is desperate to "make it big". She eventually marries a rich (older) guy who she doesn't really like. She's undoubtedly a "gold digger".

What do you think?

If it will work, it's
