BONUS LABOR 46


Athena, ever the champion of heroes, wishes to offer you a boon. But alas, nothing can be given for free. You must complete this task fit for the Goddess of Wisdom. Here's her caveat, it's tricky be warned: the first book must be Main Page genre Epic Fantasy

Read 5 linked books (i.e. Title Relay).


◈ Read 1st Book
◈ Read 2nd Book
◈ Read 3rd Book
◈ Read 4th Book
◈ Read 5th Book

Points: 60

After a quick check, I have covers with dresses of all the colours needed. So I'm going to start with the purple one to read at work and can pick up something else as well.

If you ladies have trouble finding books with dresses, I can pick up a second one, but that will make me read the magic book slower - so if someone wants to make an exchange, I'm fine with that!

LaurLa | 2383 comments I filled in some options for the relay. Looks like we have a few choices of five if we want to read them.


message 6455: by K~Terror (new)

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments Ohhhhhhh thanks LaurLa!

Here is one of the options of 5 & I think we can use a bonus to ignore the "epic fantasy" bit:

Deja Who | V Nerd
Who We Were Before | K-Terror
Before the Fall | Snowtulip
Fall Hard | LaurLa
Hard Evidence | LaurLa

V & ST - Are you guys still OK to read those books?

I'm trying to find an answer to that. I know I read the question somewhere but haven't found where yet, so the answer is equally missing.

I'll go through the Captains' thread again later today so we can be absolutely sure but for now:

Let's consider that you have to finish the complete bonus in order to get any points for it.

Excellent! We'll wait to hear from LaurLa and Abbie to see who wants to use it in their spot. It's hard to tell which book they are currently working on at the moment... but see LaurLa has 4 spots reserved so she may be very happy to use it!
