Question:

Huntress

1. Huntresses are from Gotham
Read a book with a city on the cover or which plays in an urban modern setting.

How modern is modern? 20th Century +, 21st Century +, currently day? e.g. do the interwar years class as modern?

I was aiming for a contemporary setting here, so let's say 21st century to keep it simple.

I'm glad i wasn't the first one to mention it, I like to have a few days to get them from the library before the month starts (how else can anyone keep up with Nara...)


message 239: by Ren (new)

Ren Frederica/Joker/Why so sad?/1 of 3
Not really laugh-out-loud (I took comedy to mean "with a happy ending" in the Greek sense) but it definitely made me chuckle several times, it's a very funny book.

Restless Spirits/Joker/Arkham Asylum/2 of 3
The murderous ghost is definitely a psychopath.

Arsenic for Tea/Joker/Joker Venom/3 of 3
...duh? And that's Joker defeated!



Is it so late in January already?? I've got to submit the other few books I've read so far but I'm procrastinating because each book can count for at least two heroes and I'm undecided. :(

You can't keep up with Nara. She's not human I tell you! And that's me saying that, and I've always been the fastest reader I know...

haha I'm quite sure we've already established that I'm not human ;)

Probably won't be able to get this month's villain first though, I have a lot of books I want to get out the way before thinking about the challenges! Although I suppose they might coincidentally fit :P

Annoyingly, the two January BoMs haven't come it at the library though. Hoping the Feb ones actually come in during Feb so I can get some energy cells...
