Are we doing safe zone 1 again? Seems to make sense points wise. I have a book ready for task iv of zone 2, depending on which zone we do first. ..."


Date added. I think we should do SZ 1. As for SZ 2, I definitely have a book for iii (skull cover+poison text). I’ll have a look and see if I have other options.

Katie | 1634 comments Finished flowers on cover.


message 203: by Katie (new)

Katie | 1634 comments Could I take the 'I'? I'd really like to read Sapphire Flames.

Sounds good. Plus other teams have read the book previous rounds, so will count there.


message 205: by Katie (new)

Katie | 1634 comments Great! Thanks.

SZ2 looks tough this round. I'm going to have to search some more to find something that fits i or ii.

Or, I could take the 'S' in SZ1, too, with Shards of Frost?


message 206: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 2131 comments I can do one of the Os in sz1, but it's not a prior BOM or read by another team.

And I have a U lined up for sz3. By the calculations it only looks like we'll need one U this round.


message 207: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (last edited Sep 12, 2019 08:15AM) (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5684 comments the highest points word wise in SZ3 -
on (twice)
in (seven times)
uk (once)

Lots of I and N.

Sassafrass (sass-a-frass) | 1142 comments I'll be done by Crime book in a bit. Kinsey's getting to the conclusion. LOL


message 209: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5684 comments Looking around more on SZ2, I’ve found more options. So can do - ii or iii or both.


message 210: by Sassafrass (new)

Sassafrass (sass-a-frass) | 1142 comments I think that I've got any for BOMs. I won't be able to look for that until tomorrow at the earliest due to work.


message 211: by Sassafrass (new)

Sassafrass (sass-a-frass) | 1142 comments I finished my book! Will someone put in the date. I can't sign in at work


message 212: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5684 comments Will do.


message 213: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (last edited Sep 12, 2019 10:45AM) (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5684 comments For SZ 1, I have S that another team read.

SafeZone books can be started now.


message 214: by Sassafrass (new)

Sassafrass (sass-a-frass) | 1142 comments Guys, just let me know what we are doing next so I can try to search...

Let’s start with Safe Zone 1. P, S or O are open. We have our 2 required book that are previous BOM or another team read.

P -
O - Sarah
I - Katie (Another team read)
S -
O -
N - Danielle (BOM)


message 216: by Sassafrass (new)

Sassafrass (sass-a-frass) | 1142 comments Ok, that will be easy, I'll go look. I'll probably only be good for one book this weekend because I'll be a training all day Sat and Sunday.


message 217: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 2131 comments I've just started my O book for zone 1.


message 218: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 2131 comments I think I have a possible for task i in zone 2, if no one else has anything. My O for zone 1 is short so if I don't read anything else for zone 1 I could read the two for zone 2.

Or maybe I should use the O in zone 3 and read no books at all for zone 1, just concentrate on the harder tasks for zone 2? Making sure I don't finish anything until zone 1 is done.


message 219: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (last edited Sep 12, 2019 06:12PM) (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5684 comments Sounds like that could be a good idea.

I can do ii and/or iii for zone 2.


message 220: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5684 comments Finished N - zone 1.


message 221: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 2131 comments Finished The Wide Window for an O in zone 1- Danielle could you add the date for me to the spreadsheet? Thanks!

I'll read for i and iv for zone 2 now but I won't finish either until zone 1 is complete.


message 222: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5684 comments Will do.


message 223: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (last edited Sep 13, 2019 01:25PM) (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5684 comments I moved Sass’ book to the P, as I had an O. Plus the book I just want to read, worked for S.


message 224: by Katie (new)

Katie | 1634 comments Sorry I'm the last one. I'm done!


message 225: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5684 comments No worries at all.


message 226: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5684 comments Zone 2 books can be finished now. Zone 3 books can be already started, but not finished until Zone 2 is completed.


message 227: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5684 comments Did you enjoy the book Katie? I have it to read at some point.


message 228: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 2131 comments Hurray! My two zone 2 books are awful, I'll be glad to finish them. I should be done with both tomorrow.


message 229: by Sassafrass (new)

Sassafrass (sass-a-frass) | 1142 comments Ok, guys. I'm pretty much useless until Monday sorry. I just wanted to let you know that I haven't forgot about you or the game.


message 230: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5684 comments Finished ii and iii on zone 2.

It was really good, Danielle. I wish Ilona Andrews published more books/year. They're my favorite authors and I'm nowhere near being sick of them yet.


message 232: by Katie (new)

Katie | 1634 comments I'm going to start The Blacksmith Queen for zone 3. It will work for the K.

I agree. I’m hoping to read it soon. Maybe this week now, as we have I’s.

Nice, hope you enjoy it. It’s another’s one I have to read at some point.

Yes! I'm sure you'll love it.

I'll let you know how the GA Aiken one is, too. She's another favorite author.


message 236: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 2131 comments Finished both my books for zone 2.

I haven't linked the book for task iv as I'm waiting for the cover to my edition to be added, as it's not yet on GR. I guess all the GR librarians that do SRC aren't around at the weekend. Anyway, if it isn't added in the next day or so (I asked on Friday) I'll ask in the thread here.


message 237: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5684 comments Nice.


message 238: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5684 comments Zone 3 books can be finished now.


message 239: by Katie (new)

Katie | 1634 comments Finished The Blacksmith Queen. Sorry I haven't been here in a couple days. My kids got sick again, so it's been a little more hectic than normal. I'll look for an N next.


message 240: by ✿~Danielle~✿ (new)

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 5684 comments That’s a shame Katie. I hope they are better or on the way to.


message 241: by Katie (new)

Katie | 1634 comments They are, thanks Danielle! It's really unavoidable when they're in school. I'm surprised my daughter lasted 3 weeks before coming home with something.

Sassafrass (sass-a-frass) | 1142 comments Hope your kiddos feel better, Katie!

I finally read one for this zone!!! on the sheet. *whew*

I guess I'll look for N's next.

Oh no! I hope they are well again now. Although littlies do seem to bounce even more when they get well again, as if they are making up for lost time and/or mischief. Hope you survive the illness and the recovery!

Sassafrass (sass-a-frass) | 1142 comments I just finished book that works for I and N, I'll add to SS


message 246: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 2131 comments Echidnas - so funny! I never would have guessed that one.


message 247: by Katie (new)

Katie | 1634 comments I will finish my N today.

Thanks Sass and Sarah! They are both feeling better while I am in the midst of it. This gets better, right? They'll stop bringing stuff like this home eventually...????

My daughter brought home her first fundraiser last week, so I'm off to hit up our family for $.


message 248: by Sassafrass (new)

Sassafrass (sass-a-frass) | 1142 comments LOL, I hate fundraisers!!!


I'd like to take the non-caucasian task for the first part of round 4 if that's ok?

No problem.
