Team Harry Dresden

[Rachael]

I've double-checked the original clue which was 'Spell out Kite'. I'm double checking whether that's the normal way of authors/characters/titles or whether it's just book titles

[Rachael]

Updated cards:

Bones:
Tina is reading a book set in Italy
Read a book first published in 2011
Read a book where the MC's goes to the zoo
Read a book with a 7 and a 2 in the page count. (any combination)

Heathcliff:
Alissa is reading a book with a garden on the cover
Caly reading a book with an 8 & 0 in the page count

Peeta Mellark:
Read a book where the characters dance
Dragana is reading 'The secret' for the 5th-15th century card

Robert Langdon:
Marie is (hopefully if it counts) reading a book for the K cards
Read a book with an I
Marie has (hopefully if it counts) read the T card
Read a book with an E

Rose Hathaway:

Marie is reading a book where the MC works in a church

Sybilla:
Alissa's 'Bran new death' will finish this hand

[Tina]

Ingeborg, the task is to "Spell out KITE". Marie's book is used because of the name of a character.

[Tina]

I will finish Roman Crazy today. I'll be able to read one more book this month, should I go for
- a book where the characters dance OR
- E in KITE OR
- a book with a 7 and a 2 in the page count?

I'm not sure if any of these tasks are "taken"?

[Rachael]

Hi Tina,

Absolutely, I'll read Paper Princess by Erin Watt.

I am currently half way through the The Dress of the Season which could work for characters that dance.

After that I plan to go with The Nature of a Pirate in which characters visit a zoo.

Not sure if I will be able to read more until the deadline...

COMPLETION POST
A Fatal Winter
completed 28/04/2017

Main Character - Max Tudor is an Anglican Priest

I am travelling this weekend I will finish Purple Hibiscus today although i have to say it is the most distressing book i have ever read and IMO not about anything to do with the political struggle rather the power mad abusive nature of a father to his children - i have to take it in small chunks.

Does this mean we have completed all hands and mini challenge

There are more we could do but it would mean completing 3 more specific books in a day and at lot of us are already committed to something.

[Ingeborg]

That's great, Marie! :)

[Rachael]

Hi all,

It's the last day!!

So today we should finish:

Bones:
Dragana to finish The nature of a pirate
I'm finishing Brooklyn

Heathcliff:
Alissa is finishing the Secret Garden
Caly is finishing Confessions of a pagan nun

Robert Langdon:
Tina is finishing Paper Princess

Altogether that will give us an extra 65 points

If any of you have any time to finish another book today that will fit any of the other cards we get another 10 points per book so if you can I would greatly appreciate it!

[Dragana]

Update for me. :) I am almost done with 'The nature of a pirate', will finish the rest later.

Great work team. I think we really did our best. :)

Ai honestly thought we only had the listed things to complete" I have read 4 or 5 books this weekend which might have fit something else but didn't report as I thought we had done.

[Ingeborg]

Well done, everyone! :)

[Caly ☯ Crazy Book Lady]

Great Challenge everyone! Thanks for all your hard (but fun I hope) work!

Hope to see some of you over at Tower Teams!

Happy Reading all!

There haven't released a league table so not sure where we finished but they announced Ty and Zane won.
