Ill try F8 for my choice.

Also finished Lily and the Octopus which A county I'm from? And in the title?
It's 307 pages long. I also didn't include the page total of the other book I read, The Fact of a Body 326
Also, Laura, you're being very devious in the new boat hidings! :)
F1, E8, D4, and F8 are misses.
Edie, you earned a guess for the series.
Tammy, you earned two more guesses.
Perri. you earned a guess.

Finished BRAZEN Rebel Ladies Who Rocked the World. It is graphic, non-fiction with a long title. It is a YA book and has stunning pictures. Each profile of a "rebel lady" is followed by a two page painting that captures the essence of that woman.
306 pages.
A11 is a hit!
I5, L8, and F7 are a miss.
Edie, you earned another guess.
Yes, the read-a-thon ends when you go to bed tonight.

I've taken part in all the games and tasks that have been put up and I've had a great time joining in with my fellow greenies!

I didnt get nearly as much reading done during this marathon but at least I finished one book.

And another novella on saturday, but didn't read a lot this weekend because of Easter.
A10 is a hit!
Tammy, you've earned one guess.
Veronica, since you maxed out your audio hours, you can let me know the page count for the 5 hours, if you wanted it added to our overall total.
Lieke, if you pick a task for your final book then you can get a guess.
I really wanted to finish Stars are Fire but I just couldn't stay up another half hour last night to finish it. It was already way past my usual time. But I got 226 pages of it done!
Great job, green team!

I'll do A9, A12, and B2.
I completed wrap up!
Thank you for all of your hard work, Laura. You have been an amazing team lead!!!


Completed the Wrap-up. This was great fun.
Thanks Laura, for all your work. Not sure how you found time to read with all the tabulating and responding you did, but sure glad you did.

For the extra audiobook hours, I'm estimating it was about 110 pages.
Thank you Laura and all the mods for all their hard work, this was so much fun!
Jennifer, if you want to take one final guess for your book then feel free.
A9 and B2 are a miss. A12 is a hit and the 3-block ship has been sunk!
Thanks everyone for the appreciation! It was a confusing one but we ended up sinking all our ships (and then some!)

Tammy, you have maxed out your books for the team tasks but you earned a guess for the nonfiction and I added it to the page count.
Edie, I've added it to the page count but we can't count it for team tasks since it was started before.
Emily, I added yours for ATY and to the page count.
We completed the 'Read 20 books' task so have another team guess.
