Plethora (bookworm_r) | 2239 comments Wait something doesn't seem right for Zone 1.

The last book from Keli is the one read by another team but I don't think it works for the remaining letter S.

We may need to shift books and /or toss out something read as unusable and read something else?

I know the book I picked for TCF - SS will work as a spell-out somewhere. But I need to complete it Thursday.

I need to stop listening to it shortly and will try and hold it off.

Do you think you'd be able to finish your two for Zone 2 ahead of Thursday evening?

I can switch to trying to find a book for one of the other things after my upcoming meeting to listen to some at work today. I should have an ok day with listening time thankfully. Maybe I can get some of my spreadsheets done.

Ninth Key by Jenny Carroll and Meg Cabot
Narrator: Johanna Parker
Series: The Mediator
Characters: Susannah Simon, Father Dominic, CeeCee Webb, Tad Beaumont, Andy Ackerman, Jake Ackerman (Sleepy), Brad Ackerman (Dopey), David Ackerman (Doc)

Oh I forgot I have that book to add too and a couple more but yes, I should be done with my book before then. If Keli post her completion I can finish my books later tonight.

I thought your Poison book was for sz2 for task #3? It's what you posted here

I can't say that the bottle would qualify to cover Task 3. so we are safer to hold it for spell-out.

Nikki the Sapphired Book Dragon AKA NixieNut  (sapphireddragon) | 1397 comments So we still need to cover 3 and 4 of SZ2?

I might have something for task 3


☼♎ Carmen the Bootyshaker Temptress ☼♎ | 7238 comments I think Keli got the ok for task 3 but I've been looking to see if there was something for task 4. This are some of the authors that can work - Sophie Jordan, Ian Thompson, or...... If you can find something that works it would be great but if you want to work on #3 that's good too just in case

Sure thing, I'll get it finished as early as I can. I would've mentioned Knight earlier but I honestly thought I was going to dnf it. It can be real hit or miss with me and Ms Ashley. Hopefully we can use it for another word.

Keli | 1319 comments Little change of plans. I've stopped Naamah's Curse before I get too far cos I won't get it finished by Sunday night. I really don't want to reread 100+ pages, if I should try to use it later. But I will have Sommersgate House done. Thank goodness for audiobooks. I can do all the things I need to do whilst still reading.
