I haven't read the book, so I don't know where it fits. The spreadsheet (link in post 10) is up to date, so you can see what we currently need. Only completed books have been noted.

Oh good! High Fidelity is dragging a bit for me, so I was feeling a bit like a let down.

Go us! *\o/*

Tallyho --

Can I have the year for this one? We'll use this to complete the Mary Shelly's lifetime task.

message 65: by Susan A (new)

Susan A | 2091 comments Sci-fi, non-fiction, vampire, arms/hands are the open tasks.

5 wattage left.


Do we continue to track wattage after 1000? Seems like we'll finish this rather quickly.

Tallyho | 35 comments 63% done with Cinder which is classified as Fantasy but also Sci-Fi, so we'll have that one covered.

29% on Clockwork Scarab which will fulfill Hands, or wattage. :)

message 74: by Bee (new)

Bee (abirbee) | 130 comments Hey Slytherpuff! Welcome to Bits n Pieces, chosen by our very own Maritza, who thinks she's not been reading much lately.
Maritza, you've not been reading much and I've been captaining much either, who cares, and like Susan said we're finishing this rather quickly. And now we have a new member so we should slow it down. Or build our monster a twin or a girlfriend.
Even monsters shouldn't be lonely. What do you think??? :)

Susan A | 2091 comments Once we finish Frankenstein, we have the option of building a bride.

See here: Bride of Frankenstein

Q&A thread where Lanelle discusses options.


message 81: by Kat (new)

Kat Building the bride sounds good to me.

If we want to work on both at the same time, we could use Around the World in Eighty Days that I just finished for "1 book that was made into a movie" for the bride instead of wattage for Frankenstein.


message 82: by Tallyho (new)

Tallyho | 35 comments Per the Q&A, we don't have to finish Frank first. :) I like the option of building the bride, especially since we just got a new team member, and we're almost done already!


message 83: by Susan A (new)

Susan A | 2091 comments I can move The Sumage Solution to scars.

I'll hold off on moving things until we hear from the rest of the group I guess.
