I've finished an A that we can't use anywhere else, if you want to move Jackie's book that's currently at A to an O. I'll add it to my completion post above this.

Also, my current Audio is an N, and my current book is O or N.

Laura did you want to track this round?

I’ll magic up the s/Sheet for the SpellOut over the weekend for our options.

Sure. Have we figured out the countdown stage yet? What tasks can you do? Or can't you do might be just as helpful, with all of us willing to do any. :)

For Countdown I can do
#1 -

Let me do some shuffling

Can you look at post 137 and tell me which ones you want. Because I've got KU books checked out that fit just about every category.

And LaurLa, which second task do you want?

I'm good with everything that's left, so I need you ladies to be specific!

[Jackie]

Books that I have in progress work for:

1 - O, N, or S
2 - I or B

I have another planned that works for N.

I'll take 9, 5, and 3. But I can also swap if someone really wants one of these.

Got it! I think we're good. I'm good with any 2 of the remaining ones, and LaurLa should be okay with one of them.

I found one for Group 2, i, so I'll put you down for iii.

Louise, can you find something for
ii - Read a book with a bright/neon green cover (>50%) where the author contains the letters B-U-R-N (doesn't need to be in that order)

Or anybody else? It's okay if someone reads for 2 in this section.


Also, does anybody care about the order we read between Group 1 & Group 2 this time?

I’ll see what I can find on my Kindle.

For our Safezone words this round I have a U I can finish tomorrow 😊

Leaves us with:
1* I
1* N to find

I can do an I if no one else gets to one in time. But it'll probably be Saturday before I can start.

I said in message 135 I was working on an N or I book. Have you accounted for that in the messages above? I should be done tonight. It's Celebrity in Death - I for series or N for Nadine (char)

I still have 2 more N books that I can read as well if we need them.

[LaurLa]

For Round 2 countdown I'll do #8 as my second book with Stars Above.

[Laura]

I did not expect you to pick the Science Fiction task!

[LaurLa]

I need to read Stars Above this month... it works for AMMP's genre and as a YA book for some other challenge (can't remember off the top of my head) and as royalty for a challenge in Precinct 81. It covers a lot this month, actually!

Well, that sounds a lot more like you! :)

A couple of the Cat Who... books seem to work for the bright green task.

I've been going through my TBR, trying to find authors that fit, and then looking through their books for a green cover. Not much luck so far. :(

[Laura]

I've been stalking the other threads, and the only books anyone seems to have found that work for the BURN author/green cover task are Cat Who books by Lillian Jackson Braun. :(

I have to leave the house right now, and only got through about half of the threads.

[Jackie]

I've been through my books and couldn't find any combination of color and author that worked. So, I can read . It's a re-read and I can get the audio so it would be a fairly fast read.

Oops missed this, I’ll mark it for an I. If we can have an N as well that is all letters covered. 😊

[Laura]

I’m not sure if that one is bright green enough Jackie. People of been pretty nitpicky about this task in the questions thread. I think it’s some editions of book 2, and book 26 that most people have posted.

Great find.

[Jackie]

It appears this one was approved in the Q&A thread. I can get this one instead.

[Laura]

Thanks, Jackie! Are you good for your other task in that Group, also?

[Jackie]

Yes, planning to read by Christa Nardi.
