Give me your opinions, would this
count as a field? It is not in the middle of it but on the edge but still.
It works for me. It's in the middle of nowhere :)
Hi Oliver Twix! Lord of the Pies are holding a hot tub party and would like to invite you over for drinks and snacks. We look forward to seeing you all and for every team member that comes over you get to skip a task in your current challenge. See you soon.

oooohhhhh nice...Wait...I joined Lord of the Pies hot tub party, that means we could have skipped a task last round.... dang it... oh well, at least it was a fun party.
Also, I'm reading midnight sun, that is a big of a door stopper, meaning it can be used either for task 15 or task 2.

I used our skips to complete the Round. I'm going to get a s/sheet topether to keep better track of what's needed.

How did you like it. I devoured The Twilight books but haven’t picked this one up yet.
I liked it a lot. I would rate it 5 stars if not for the fact that Edward's low self worth and the obsession for protecting Bella even from herself started to annoy me. Specially because he keeps praising her.. but fails to understand she has a say in things like... how to live her life!But, that was my issue with the whole series, so, maybe I'm projecting. Or maybe I'm too old for YA... I'm pretty sure is the first part.
Jasper in action is crazy awesome.. he was always my favorite, even with Bella's biased vision... seeing it all there, because mind reading allows for a lot of hidden stuff, was brilliant!
I have mixed feelings about wanting her to re-do the rest of the series in Edward's POV or not. Sure, it's a bit of milking the cow, on the other hand... having the chance to listen to the Volturi's thoughts?! That would be almost worth it the amount of depression and angst we would have to endure to get there.
Good afternoon Twixies! The Lion, the Witch and the Waldorf Salad has an offer for you! If one of you comes over and reads a task for our current episode, linked here, in exchange, your team can skip two of your tasks for your episode. If you are up for it, come on over and let us know which one you can do!
I'm reading a book for the salad lion and witches, so we'll be able to skip something
So I finished the book for The Lion, the Witch and the Waldorf Salad, which means we can skip 2 tasks.Laventeli and Louise, which ones should we mark as done?
I’ve got a couple of books to add to the spreadsheet I’m thinking skip #12 & #13
Louise wrote: "I’m reading 
which will cover task #14"I loved that book.
I'm currently reading
That has STEAM on its text, so it works for #9

I had a couple of busy weeks at work, maybe she has too?
