Ok, cool, 'cuz I finished one today already , and I can put it towards a letter .
Ritika, what else can it be used for? There are no M letters. I think it’s a stand-alone.

I put your All the Girls are Missing under G for Girls
Your other books are:
Glass Sword
The Remaking of Corbin by Roan Parrish
Mai Tai One On by Jill Marie Landis
Wait, we can use any letter in the title?
Vicki wrote: "Wait, we can use any letter in the title?"Yes.
The first letter from any word of the title, any of the initials of the writer and the first letter in the series title.
Hey guys! I wanna know if could still use the letter that was already taken. Also, I have no clue which book to read lol
elleirin wrote: "Hey guys! I wanna know if could still use the letter that was already taken. Also, I have no clue which book to read lol"If a letter has already been taken, then I would suggest not using it since some of us might be reading books that don't fit any other. But I guess, if we have enough banked books, then we can just switch around with the ones that have already been reviewed and use them, provided we send a reminder here. How does that sound? I think, that way, we will be able to finish off with the letters quickly.
By the way, we have the following letters available, if any one wants to add books: E,N,A,I,R
We still have letters available! If you have finished books ( and no letter to match it with) add them to the banked books tabs so we can still get points later. Letters still available: E-N-A-I
And remember guys, you can use alternate editions for any letter you might need. You just still need to use the most rated edition for page count! :D
I read the remaking of Corbin 10/4 if someone would add it please.
Jenny, I just figured out how to open my SS I think. Lol So I added my books. Do we have to be finished by a certain date? I know I’m supposed to read 15 books this month but does it matter if 3 are this round & 6 the next & 2 then 4 or whatever? Lol
I think as long as you are close to your overall promise you are good.
I messaged your missing players, they have until 10/10 to check in otherwise they'll be removed.
Jenny, I have been putting my books on the banked tab if they don't fit the current cover task, but I'm not sure if I can do that. I haven't paid any real attention to whether or not those books will fit a future task, and if I read them now if they can be used in the future. Ugh...am I wasting my time adding them if they don't fit "no living thing on the cover"?
I think we can use them for other clues later on. Also make sure to check all the possible editions to see if you can find one of the needed letters in another version.

That's just a clue to help you figure out the answers to the clues you'll receive (clues 1-4, you're already working on clue 1). That just means that the answer for every clue your given under that category will not actually have a a living thing on it.
Take Enclave for example. It doesn't have a living thing on the cover. The answer for clues 2-4 will not either.
You can read any book you want you just have to match the letters using the letters of the titles/authors name.
Does that make sense?
Can we use books we already read in October for a future clue? Banked books okay?
Like take
for example. It has butterflies on it. Which is a living thing. So this would never be the answer to one of your clues. However, you could still read this and use the S in splintered towards what the actual answer is or the AGH in the authors initials towards the actual clue.
Jammin Jenny wrote: "Can we use books we already read in October for a future clue? Banked books okay?"If you read a book and do not use it for a current clue then yes you can bank it and use it for the next clue. You just can't use any books you've started before October 1st towards this challenge.
However, if you read a book and use it for one clue it cannot be used a second time for the next clue. You have to read all new books for that next clue.
Hey guys, so I'm out of town for a couple of days and won't be able to review the books for a while. I'd suggest that if you need to, just replace the position of my book so that you can utilize the letters and finish the clue. If, however, I return and the clue is still not up, I'll add my review and do it. :)
Cool. Sounds good. Thanks for the heads up!
Sure. I just figured that if my book is stopping us from completing the clue while I'm gone, it would be better to have it out of the way for the meantime. Haha.
We need a lot of Ns right now...I'm going to try and read one in the next couple of days.
Removing Kelli and Tim for not checking in.
If you have any other members who haven't checked in since their first comment let me know and I'll message them as well.
Hello team. Just wondering how you three active members, Jenny, Vicki, and Mayra, feel about disbanding this team and being added into Team Holzhauer? It seems like some of the members from your team who have checked in haven't added anything to the group in quite some time.Let me know how you all feel about it. If this were to happen then already posted books for this team can be moved over to the other team. Let me know! :D
Either way I'm fine, I know even if we are 3 we can tackle all of them if we if we put our minds to it
Mayra wrote: "Either way I'm fine, I know even if we are 3 we can tackle all of them if we if we put our minds to it"I just feel so awful because it looks like only three of you are posting. And I don't want this challenge to not be fun for any of you.
I guess just let me know how you guys feel and I'll move you if you want me to. (:

Felicia, I think we’ll be okay! Jenny isn’t well right now & I’m still playing catch up. I think you can leave us for now. :)

No. This challenge is about spelling out the words of the title and the authors name of the clue your team is working on. You will read books and use the first letter of the series title, the first letter of any word in the title or the first letter of the authors name to do this.
