Well if we switch Plethora’s O book to E and leave the O for Keli we can get VERSION which would be 250 points will be done but if we continue with trying to finish CARNIVOROUS we can get 400 points. We can place your book for N since I didn’t start my book yet and I can work on the C instead. That may work better. Give me a minute to post the change

Sorry. I did just finish my O book. But I'm heading into my night job. I plan on catching us up in the morning with what writr makes sense for the letter we've read.

This is what we have so far. The bold ones are the open one so if Keli has a book that covers one of them then we'll use it or switch things around we'll have this word covered and then go for maybe a smaller one. C - Fight and Flight - Carmen 8/25
A - The Bride - Nikk | 8/22
R - Sisters Red - Carmen | 8/23
N - Freaky Rites - Nikk | 8/23
I - Stealing Shadows - Nikk 8/23
V - Shards of Hope - Nikk | 8/22
O - Love at First Like - Plethora | 8/23
R - Seventh Grave and No Body Carmen | 8/23
O - Keli
U - Unraveled - Plethora | 8/22
S - Him - Carmen | 8/24
I'd rather go for carnivorous. I can finish at least one pertinent two more. Have to look at countdown time.
Then we can do V - The Vampire Knitting Club - Carmen
E - Catching Her Bear - Carmen
R - A Royal Christmas Wedding - Plethora
S - Sex Love Repeat - Carmen
I - Wicked Hearts - Nikk?
O - The Eighth Guardian - Plethora
N - Alligance - Nikk
So we are looking for E, r or s basically
I need an R title for another chairmen. So I'll look for that
Allegiance is nearly 500 pages so it will most likely be my Last read for the round
I completed Him I'm going to work on the next book. Nikk no worries. I can cover the other letters 😊
So are we good with what I posted above? If so I can add it to the spreadsheet so we know where we're at.
Yes. Go for it!

Let me have a look. I am pretty sure its for a unlikable character named Ivy who we meet briefly and then she is murdered but i will double check. Not quite finished with wicked hearts but will have both it and allegiance of honor done before deadline
I was right it was for character Ivy Jameson. I have updated the spreadsheet :-)
Plethora wrote: "I need an R title for another chairmen. So I'll look for that"I hate autocorrect.... Why would it use chairmen? I never type that but I type challenge all day long.
I don't have much left of the offer. Does the time end when the next round begins?
Hahaha I knew that’s what you were trying to say Plethora 😁Thanks Nikk. I’ll add it to the spreadsheet
Keli the timer is in the above post. Plethora posted it.
Carmen I'll catch up with you tomorrow to figure out what letters need finished for Version. I started the R, it's a short audio. About 6 hours, have about hour done, will get about another hour on commute home after work tonight. So I'll finish up in morning and have time for at least one more.
Carmen do I need to read another O? I think you double counted my O book in Carnivorous.
Carmen I have also started The Eighth Guardian which will cover the E. Can also be used for the O if that was double counted. T, E, M, A, O, J, Z, N, F, V, S
Plethora wrote: "Carmen do I need to read another O? I think you double counted my O book in Carnivorous."Oops sorry. I meant to place Keli's book. So we need another O but I think I have something for it too.
My book that I was reading for E can be used for the O or S.
Where you at one your batch... Day is growing late on your end
I’m in a car driving through Iowa and my phone is foreign. Can someone add my book to the spreadsheet because I can’t access it right now. I won’t get to a place with WiFi for another 5 hours? Thank you to anyone who can.Completion post
Book: The Offer
Date read: 25/8/19
Player: Keli
I’m really sorry that y’all had to wait on me for safe zone 2, that you had to stop reading so many books for sz3, and for only contributing one book to sz3. Even though I’m still on vacation I should be able to get back on track and read more. Especially as I have been given a new kindle fire.😊Anyway, sorry again that you three had to carry the last stage.

How exciting, a new kindle. 😃It's OK. Keli, I just stopped and picked up again on those books, I didn't stop reading. You finished in time for me to use the one I wanted for another challenge even.
I'm on my lay book. I have about an hour and a half left to completion. How are you ladies coming along?
I am done with wicked hearts and have about 100 pages left in allegiance. I am listening to it on audio here at work Then will finish via the paperback copy on the 1 1/2 hour train commute home so be done with a couple hours to spare
Hahaha I think me and Plethora are rubbing off on you. 😉
I added your stuff to the spreadsheet Nikk you only have to add the date to your last book.
All done ladies. Catch you later
Have one done, wrapping up the last one. Just under the wire. as well
Finished My last book and updated the spreadsheet 😀
We have to watch ourselves. We almost read out of our zone. We were 4 away from maxing out.
OK. Finished. Off to sleep as I get up in a short 3.5 hours.good job ladies.
Now I need to figure out the new countdown tasks....Carmen, looks like you and I can decide on the last ones left.
10 with a title that starts with O Nikk
9 set in Canada
8 tagged MPG Sci-Fi
7 that is more than 50% black (use tin eye to confirm)
6 from the 1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die List. For this task, you can use books that would otherwise not be allowable for the challenge (e.g. due to wordcount or genre) Keli
5 that has one of the 50 states of the USA in the title
4 that is more than 400 pages Nikk
3 that has the letters C-A-T in the title (in any order) Nikk
2 written by an African American author Keli
1 from the NPR List
So do we know who has what book from the other teams? or is it BOM this time? I'm a bit confused this morning. Err, I hate trying to get financial aid on the phone especially when they place you on hold. Errrrrr!

I was going to read The Fellowship of the Ring for #6 but I'm going to go with The Little Prince instead cos it's like 60 pages. So I can get in another. My #2 book is The Bluest Eye which is also rather short. I wil be happy to read for another of the other tasks. I have chosen one for each of them.
Keli - The Little Prince isn't going to work. It doesn't meet page count or word count for a 'childrens book'.
For task 6, on the spreadsheet it says for task 6 you can use books that would otherwise not be allowed.
Oh yea, i forgot about that little **** .... sorry! Wanted to call it out before we overlooked and got dinged for it.
Plethora wrote: "Oh yea, i forgot about that little **** .... sorry! Wanted to call it out before we overlooked and got dinged for it."That's why I had originally chosen LotR but fortunately noticed the exception. 😊

Big difference between those two books :) Too bad I can't use that for the NPR list..lol it has some short books on it as well.
