Exspecially now that we are at the end....

Oh, well.

I will still stop by everynight after work, and post my commentary that no one reads till the next day.

Ghost in the Stacks I was going to see what I could start after my 600+ book, but everything looks covered.
I am still reading my # 4 as well, maybe later on today we will have some new tasks, every card looks like it is almost done at the moment!

I'm hoping to have my scavenger hunt book done some time tomorrow, so we'll get a new card for that one.

Sorry I'm being slow with that one but the ebook and audio are easier to slip in while at work or on the (usually) dark bus.

This one still seems to be open:

Gold to Buy Horse - Read a book with a mainly gold cover or one set in an era where gold is used as the main currency.

Is that something you might have, Abbie?

I don't know what it is with work lately but we all seem to be having the same issues with overly busy work these days!

We should rebel against that.

Yes we do Jessica, also i've noticed that the teams are all using the Wheelathon rules so we can also use Authors 1st name / surname for spell outs

I love King! He has some okay ones, but a but load of good ones! I have read quite a bit of his work, so if you need some advice on what to pick just let me know.

You do know that they are getting ready to make Gerald's Game into a movie?

Lol..No problem, we can go by the same rules as last time, the first one done gets the spot!

We seem to want to read the same tasks...but I gues its understandable since I think you tend read similar things to me.
