So I think the first thing we should do is guess all the riddle answers.
I found the first riddle - I'm where things get brushed but I'm not a horse stable. What am I? on a website so I'm pretty sure I know the answer. I don't know if we are allowed to post them here?

Do we want to post them here team or PM Alaina?

But I honestly don't mind if the others come looking for answers. They still need to read the books after all 🤷🏻♀️

Do you guys think the book
would count for "MC gets a makeover"? The synopsis is that man with very low IQ gets a medical treatment that makes him intelligent up to the point where he's smarter than 99% of the people around him. So it wouldn't be a makeover in the classical sense, but (if I were to decide) I'd allow it 😂

I think he does have a makeover of sorts - from what I recall he wears stuff more suited for academic circles, suits and ties that kind of thing, once he's done medical treatment and gotten intelligent 😊 hope you enjoy the book regardless, it's one of my faves!

I think it will count too. So I'm pretty sure I have the clues to the first two rooms' riddles. I'll post them on the 1st and we can see if they are right.

And you are completely right about his clothing. Also I think I remember him visiting his father who is a hairdresser in his salon, so that would count, right?
I think I have figured out the riddles as well (wasn't the last one even an example on the Challenge page?), so we can discuss them on Monday :)
So I have put my three books I'm going to start with in the SS.I tried to pick the 'hardest' categories they would fit in. I also have books that will fit Eyelashes as well. Probably a few other categories but that's the only other 'harder' one I can think of.

So I have two series I will be focusing on this month. Maybe a third if I have time.
(8 books)and
(5 books)
It's a shame the second series doesn't have a P in it for the task 'Letters S,O,A,P in series title (in any order)'. But have fun with those series :)

I have more books I can pull from but those are my main reads and I will probably only read like 8 books.
I thought of another book I could try but no 'A'. :(
I found a book that works for S,O,A,P if we need it. ^_^

My first book for June doesn't fit anything on the SS but I haven't looked at the text ones yet, I can probably find something.
I'll be starting right at midnight. Can't wait!
Checking in! I have added my books to the spreadsheet!
Okay it is now the 1st! At least my time. So I'm posting what I think the riddle guesses are.I'm where things get brushed but I'm not a horse stable. What am I? - BATHROOM
I'm sometimes electric but I don't light up. What am I? - TOOTHBRUSH
What gets wetter as it dries? - TOWEL
I'm used most at night but I'm not a flashlight. What am I? - BED
I can change speeds but I'm not a car. What am I? - FAN
I'm found on a wall but I'm not paint. What am I? - MIRROR
I'm starting my first book now! Happy reading everyone! :)By the way, should we mark the books we have started reading in the spreadsheet somehow?

Probably a good idea! I've just added in a column - CR for Currently Reading, and Finished if completed :)

Okay, you can now see the tasks for those riddles. Remember there are 4 tasks per riddle but only 3 people need to read for that said riddle. You can read for any of the 4 tasks, so pick the book that fits that task :)
