copying over here for easier reference:
looking to finish strong with:
S - Cat (Her First Dance, author Suzanne)
Y - Marie (You Had Me at Hello, title)
B - Cat (Girls of Slender Means, char Baberton)
I - Melinda (I series)
L - Elena (I Hunt Killers, author Lyga)
L - Sarah (Rear Garden, char Leslie)
The alternative name that could work is KINGSLEY. basically, I'm going to keep agile to handle whichever books you choose to read :)
Still waiting on a timer...

I finished one this morning. I think it has an L character - but I'll check when I report it. Also got a G or P book that I hope to finish today - not very helpful letters. :(Hoping to get through as many as I can manage.
we have a countdown timer!
midnight London/Lisbon time tomorrow!
7pm East Coast tomorrow!
all completion posts need to be on the thread by then, or the book won't count (Katie & I get a couple of days to get everything straight on the spreadsheet after that.)
if anyone is planning on reading the Kate Daniels BOM, the deadline is for the book & Questions to be finished & entered onto the sheet by midnight Sunday (i.e before the Captain's Cut-off)
read, my lovelies, read!

Great to have a countdown! *reads reads reads*
excellent!
So, I have submitted Lucius & Dudley, and am now filling out Sybill (waiting for the preannounced books to be reported!) and,for the moment, SEAMUS - I've filled in the SEA already...
EDIT: change of plan: trying for KINGSLEY. K&I only ones without a book against them...
EDIT: or, since Sarah sprung a U on me, and as everyone is reading SO hard today, might even try for a couple....

I'm trying to finish the new Ilona Andrews, but don't count on me. I rushed through those previous 2 for the TWT because I knew time would be scarce this week. You guys have been a great team! Hope you US folk have a great holiday weekend!
You guys have been an awesome team, I've had so much fun!
Now, Katie! read that book! I want the I! or the K! no.... I neeeeeeeeeed it! no pressure!
Emelie, you can beat Song of Solomon, I know it!
everyone else: give me your books! I want the letters! with Katie's I, we'd only (hahahahaha!) need an F, V and O or N to finish off VERNON & FILIUS (assuming everyone else finishes the books they have planned).
EDIT: in fact, if Katie finishes Magic Triumphs we could do CORNELIUS and not need any extra books...

oh! Katie, I realised - if you are going to answer the DQs for Magic Triumphs, you have until the extended deadline to finish, post & the book to the sheet.
i don't think you get the extension if you don't answer the Qs though.... but, not too much extra work for 20 extra points??

Ok, I'm not going to get this one done (mostly because I want to do a more thorough read rather than speed through it...), but I did manage a re-read of Magic Gifts. Finished about a minute ago.
Song of Solomon finished!I've loved being a Diamond with you. Great job everyone! I won't be able to finish any more books before the deadline so I'll cheer on you that'll try!

That's just as good! and I'd far rather you enjoy the last book than speed read it :)

I'm trying to get Everland finished before time runs out. It will be very close. I do have some of the DQs finished already, so I hope I can beat the clock.
With a bit of reorgansing of the books in characters I've managed to use all our titles for characters, with no negative points! :)
We did awesomely well this challenge, thanks all, and see you in the next challenge :)

Awesome, Cat! Thanks for being a brilliant, engaging, encouraging captain! I hope I get to be in a team with you, and the rest of our lovely Diamonds, again in the future! Thanks for all the fun!
