Daniela Zekotic | 923 comments A little round-up as we have 12 days left before the challenge is over:

We have 53 books left to read of which we have 7 Coloured Cards left
8 Yellow
2 Green (Ashley might get to this, but not 100% sure yet!)
4 Green
6 Green --> claimed by Ashley
3 Red --> claimed by me
9 Red
1 WD4 ( we already used 6 Yellow, both blues, 4 & 8 Red)

As for the mini challenge, we got 11 spots covered, part 1 will need 5 more books, then I'd like to concentrate on part 2, where we have 14 spots left. With the current situation I'm not sure we will get to part 3, so please look out for words from the recipe so we might get the bonus points for finishing part 1 and 2 :)


message 806: by Daniela (new)

Daniela Zekotic | 923 comments The reason I don't want to concentrate on part 3 now is that I'm too lazy to write a story. I really only want to do that if we finish the challenge :p

If a book doesn't fit part 1 or 2 that's perfectly fine of course, we'll still get 10 points per book read for part 3

Daniela Zekotic | 923 comments Just looking through kindle ebooks, I can read a red cover HP book 1 which will work for Red 9 or 3 Red (WD4)

Daniela Zekotic | 923 comments I'm actually not sure if I'll finish Siddhartha, just can't get into it. So it'd be good if someone else can look for a red book that covers either red 9 or red 3

Ashley Elig | 689 comments I’m going to work on a 9 Red audiobook as well and then I’m probably tapped out. So I plan to finish the 6 green I’m working on, a 2 green, and 9 red. Fingers crossed! I’ll keep you posted!

Daniela Zekotic | 923 comments Sounds great Ashley! Seems like we'll finish our coloured cards!


message 821: by Daniela (new)

Daniela Zekotic | 923 comments We only need one more book for part 1, so please keep a lookout for words from the recipe for part 2 :) especially if you are reading on an e-reader where you can search for words.

We already have many books that work for part 2 as well, so I can alwways move them around of course :)
