Yes those 3.
Ok just checking because something is off on goodreads. They sent me an email saying they know of the problem and working on it.
I did just get a notification from a comment three hours ago which is an improvement over the 15 hour gap I had before at least!

I appreciate you checking!! That's part of the reason I haven't tried to mess with updating the spreadsheet because I'm worried of missing something. But it's been several days now so I probably will today anyway.

Ha! I knew there were posts in here earlier because you were in my feed. See, another benefit of having your teammates as GR friends :)
I thought notifications were getting better -- it was only a few minutes off earlier! -- but now it seems to be back to a few hours. Sigh. I guess at least it's not almost a full day off like before, but I wish Goodreads would get it together!

Kimber -- The Dead Zone is showing up as read April 11 for me. Can you confirm what date you finished it for me? It has to be April 15 or later to use for the mini. If you used finished it after then you'd just need to update the date -- but if you finished it before we'll have to use something else.
**TEAM SPREADSHEET UPDATED THROUGH HERE**
Pending The Dead Zone read date confirmation

I found a book I own whose title starts with the letter E -- Escort Three Tales of a Silver Fox . Would be happy to read it if that helps.
I am also reading a book about Vampires -- Claiming Marcus. Would that work for #32 to connect us to The Lost Boys team -- isn't that a movie about vampires??

I’ve only seen bits and pieces (a long time ago) but I just read the plot on Wikipedia and it mentions vampires 🤣
