Annalisa | 1659 comments Spread Sheet Updated to Here


We have 23 books left to finish our hands for the month, and 8 books to finish the mini challenge.

We have five 7s left for the month. I'm pretty sure I have every book that works for a seven used as a seven at this point. If you can please look out for V characters, authors, or locations that would be great.


message 271: by Maddy (new)

Maddy | 625 comments Um, weirdly enough, it shows me that it is already added to the shelf? Maybe a glitch or something

Does it all take place in the town/city of East Evansburg or do they travel throughout the state of Vermont? I'm not sure that We can use this for a 7 since it seems like it takes place in a city.

Annalisa | 1659 comments Spread Sheet Updated to Here

We have 4 books left to complete the mini and 17 books to complete all of our hands for the month. We are making good progress.


message 285: by Maddy (new)

Maddy | 625 comments It actually takes place on a farm that is supposed to be an example of a reviving agriculture in Vermont, but turns out to be a magical horror place :D
It is outside the city, but close enough that they travel on a school bus. I don't remember precise locations mentioned, except that it is close, but far enough to require a bus ride

Well I found some short V books, so I will work on 7s anyway, so maybe it can stay there if you are not sure :D

Maddy | 625 comments Oh, also forgot mini for Madison's mess - MCs go to investigate a crime

Looks like all 7s are covered. I was reading A Pocket Full of Rye (7th in series).

Never mind should work for some other card, as it has many characters.
