What we need is to build a title relay with the starting book having been self-published.

EDA: Everything else is spoken for and well on the way to being finished.

Alexandria | 149 comments I am grateful for the extra time. I haven't had a lot of time to start my book. :(

Eldarwen | 13742 comments Mod
K, scratch your option D. The title doesn't actually start with "You" so it won't work.

I'll have a closer look at this tomorrow but for now I can barely keep my eyes open.

G'night!


message 6210: by K~Terror (new)

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments Ya I was wondering about that. In audible the book doesn't have "Thriller" before the title but didn't have time to look at other versions in GR. Dumb.


message 6211: by K~Terror (new)

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments I'll scratch when I can edit my thread :)


message 6212: by VNerdbooks (new)

VNerdbooks (v_nerdbooks) | 5106 comments I have You Are Here by S M Lumetta that I could read if that helps ?


message 6213: by Ghost in the Stacks (new)

Ghost in the Stacks Rope is done, just posted in Read Thread


message 6214: by K~Terror (new)

That's... odd...
But I think it's better not to question those kinds of things. They're endless head scratchers >.>


message 6217: by Ghost in the Stacks (new)

Ghost in the Stacks Whoo-hoo....only 20 more hours....

message 6220: by K~Terror (new)

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments No one could build off mine last night so V threw one out that works with Karen's banked book - Here with Me (I think)


message 6221: by K~Terror (new)

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments Do you have anything that works with 'Me'

Or if someone can build off Daughters. We really just need to find ANY five-book chain and make it the plan.


message 6222: by Ghost in the Stacks (new)

Ghost in the Stacks ...damn...sorry i wasn't on last night. Was watching stranger things with my daughter.

King Eurystheus accidentally tipped over his puzzle and it scattered everywhere. Of course he's blaming you. Help him piece it back together or you'll never hear the end of it.

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments I had it done too! Like you, I was just waiting to see if anyone else wanted to do it. But, hey, we have another one! How about that... LOL!

I'm not sure how you would send it through phone either. I'm not even sure how to send a screen shot... I've just been saving it as jpeg for my own records but then I send a link to the completed puzzle.


message 6240: by Ghost in the Stacks (new)

Ghost in the Stacks Girl in the dark is completed.

On to Letters to my Daughter.

I am leaving the Historical Fiction for Tamika.

Good thing I dont have much planned today, and I can listen to audio while I clean! Letters to my Daughter is super short, less then three hours! So I should be able to get Blood on Snow at least started. Fingers cross I complete it.


message 6241: by K~Terror (new)

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments Woo-Hoo! You go Abbie!!!!


message 6242: by K~Terror (new)

As already said, NO!
That was a book that shouldn't have been in the bank anymore since it was used for a different relay.

I'll read up the rest of the messages now but I hope you didn't build off of that one :-/

Nice going on all the bonus tasks!!

Just got home after getting a friend ready for a wedding and then staying to watch, of course hehe. I'll get to work on the remaining 70 or so pages in Addicted to You, and then I'll see what I have lying around that'll fit the new tasks.

Hmm... alternative universe...

Would a world where vampires etc are out to the public count as alternative universe?!
