Superb! Thanks a lot, ladies!! :-)

I'll go through the books now and see if I can find the words in the text *fingers crossed*!
And then I'll have a look around for what bonus we could potentially use for this one.

And I think it's awesome that we somehow managed to get almost all the books out of the bank used!

Just as an fyi - books finished in Wheel-a-Thon may not be carried over for Bingo and the event after that, but they are not lost. We can use them for the very last event of Wobble.
But the more used now, the less to worry about later - forgetting and such, you know ;-)

About that L...

We have 2 books in the bank that have not been used yet.

1. Deception (International Romance #1) by Mona Ingram (K-Terror)
2. The View on the Way Down by Rebecca Wait (V Nerd)

V, for some reason your book either disappeared from the bank or was marked used accidentally. I just noticed on your shelf tab on the official spreadsheet that it hadn't been used yet and it isn't floating around.

Is there an L in either of those books maybe?
(I think K already checked hers when doing the spreadsheet a few hours ago.)

VNerdbooks (v_nerdbooks) | 5108 comments Ahh pants no there isn't an L in there, unless there is a sub character, hang on and i'll check

Really, we were just curious to see if we'd finally get an extinct team name, but alas, no luck ;-)

We won't be finishing this word, so no stress!

But, whatever we DO finish before the deadline, we will try to fit to this word, so we can at least get points for whatever is finished (10 points per book added to the word).

Everything you do not finish before the deadline in 13 hours, don't rush, you can finish it after the Bingo start and we can then use the book for Bingo.

MelanieJoy (ladybird11) | 1423 comments Hey team!
Dire Wolves are not super chatty today (or ever) so I'm checking you guys out :P
I buddy read the Surgeon with a few of you and loved it. Suspenseful, full plot, with well developed characters.
Right now I'm reading A Court of Mist and Fury and seriously loving it.
Anything you guys have read that's been good?

Hahaha! Maybe the two of us together can work our magic :P although Azriel is also appealing at the moment.

I'd be in for Truthwitch as well, yes! I just need to get my hands on a copy first, one way or another :-)

Haha same here! It's the public library's overdrive so I have access to it when I want to borrow it. If it's checked out when you get it, I'd be next in line and would only have to wait 14 days or less.
Keep me posted!

message 4282: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 296 comments OOhhh I am so interested to see what you guys think of

Truthwitch (The Witchlands, #1) by Susan Dennard

I just finished it. I am one of the (very) few who did not like it at all. I have told myself that I'm going to go back to it in a couple of months and give it another try. I think I am burnt out on YA fantasy at the moment...

I definitely think you have to be in the right mood!

MelanieJoy (ladybird11) | 1423 comments K~Terror wrote: "I definitely think you have to be in the right mood! "

I agree. At the moment I'm switching back and forth between crime, YA fantasy, YA romance, and romance.


message 4285: by Eldarwen (new)

Eldarwen | 13763 comments Mod
I keep telling myself that I need to take a step back from YA because it just got to be too much teen drama for me for a while, but then there's always a YA book sneaking its way into my reading pile hehe.


message 4286: by K~Terror (new)

K~Terror (k-terror) | 5600 comments I've been going through a psychological thriller phase and then had a hard time reading a fluffy NA book.. May have rolled an eye or two..


message 4287: by Eldarwen (new)

Eldarwen | 13763 comments Mod
Haha, yes, that is definitely not at all the same!


message 4288: by Snowtulip (new)

Snowtulip | 4679 comments I have that one to read too!

I'm going to get back to The Surgeon tonight...got distracted with all those color books ;)


message 4289: by Alexandria (new)

Alexandria | 149 comments Whew! I finished The Surgeon in time! Now to go add all the info...


message 4290: by Alexandria (new)

Alexandria | 149 comments We aren't doing the color bonus thing anymore right?


message 4291: by Alexandria (new)

Alexandria | 149 comments Also if there are no objections I would like the Not in a Series spot for BINGO.

Jessica | 296 comments Completion post done for Killfile: A Novel

Eldarwen | 13763 comments Mod
Nah, we're not bothering with the colours anymore now since we won't get enough books in the next half-hour anyway.

So don't worry about colours! :-)

And sure thing, Alex, the spot is yours!


message 4294: by Eldarwen (new)

Cover shows a place in the world???

Trying to fit this book, since I need to read it...


message 4299: by Snowtulip (new)

Snowtulip | 4679 comments I think I missed which pattern we're doing before I choose world :)

Eldarwen | 13763 comments Mod
We haven't actually decided on a pattern hehe.

Most likely we'll go for blackout.
