Team Dune

[Verónica]

Beside my books on the mini, these are the ones pending:

Vanessa The Chalet (Read a book with a drink on the cover or mentioned in the text)
Vanessa The Party Crasher (Read a book where someone receives an invitation (of any kind))

Corina A Study in Scarlet (Read a book which has given another team its name *)

Jojo Crazy Brave (Read a book with one or more women and no men on the cover)

Everybody, please take a look to the tasks pending, maybe your next read can fit into any of these and have a backup just in case.

Challenge ends this Saturday!

[Corina]

Haha, all good. Sounds good, I will add another book for cutlery/utensils and will be all good to finish A study in scarlet too.

[Vanessa]

I'll try to finish both books by tomorrow night

[JoJo_theDodo]

I just finished Crazy Brave, it will take care of one of the Zeros remaining too.

Hi Melanie, your book "Marriage by Arrangement" has the word knife in it ("Her eyes were shinning and the desperate look she gave him cut through his heart like a knife") and the word water ("Here, eat the yogurt, don't drink water" ).
Do you think you can find the page with these parts?

Your book "The Girl I Used to Be" also has this two words.

Also let us know if the books qualify for:
- someone receives an invitation (of any kind)
- featuring a famous person

Thanks!

[Corina]

If you need to switch anything around, some of my books feature famous people, I wrote additional reasons in the main sheet.

For Marriage by Arrangement, the water quote is on page 36 and the knife quote is on page 196.

For The Girl I Used to Be, here's the quotes with page numbers.
- Knife page 54 "...I see a knife lying on the carpet..."
- Water page 58 "...kettle on the stove, she adds hot water."

No invitations I can remember in either book. As for famous person, possibly? Explained below so if either is considered famous enough then you can use them.

Marriage by Arrangement - The male MC is considered one of India's most eligible bachelors (he's called India's Hottest Hottie a few times).

The Girl I Used to Be - When the MC was 3, her and her parents went missing in the woods before she was found at a Walmart nearby and her mother's body was found a few days after. The case ended up on a fictionalized version of the TV show America's Most Wanted a few times.

Vanessa, one of Melanie’s books fits in a drink task, do you wish to drop yours? Maybe it will take some pressure off. I’ll use the other one for cutlery. And I will finish the famous one.

[Vanessa]

Okay cool Veronica!

[Verónica]

Nice! We are one book away from finishing the main challenge and it's a zero.

These are the last books for the mini:

Float plan (Corina)
A Study in Scarlet (Corina)
Last Words (Veronica)
The Party Crasher (Vanessa)

[Corina]

Great! I should be done with both of mine by tomorrow evening I think.

[Corina]

Finished Float Plan and updated our spreadsheet. I will finish A study in scarlet tomorrow.

[Vanessa]

Awesome!! I'll be finishing mine by tonight and updating the sheet.

[Corina]

All done, completed my last book for the mini :)

[Verónica]

Aaaaaand we're done!

[Corina]

Yupiii...well done everyone!
It was a fun challenge and managed to make a slight dent in my TBR haha :)

[JoJo_theDodo]

Yay! Thank you all for letting me be part of the team. I think I'm going to slow down my reading speed now for at least
a month. lol : )

[Corina]

I'm definitely with you on slowing down, Jo! haha

[Melanie]

Great job team! I had a lot of fun.

[Heli]

Well done guys! A special thank you to Veronica, our fearless captain.

[Bella]

great job, everyone!!

[Verónica]

Hey guys!

It was a pleasure to participate in this challenge with all of you. I had fun, and I take back my assessment that my TBR list will shrink because it happened the opposite, hahaha. I hope you enjoyed the experience as much as I did. Although we finished in 10th place, we gave it all and we were a great team.

Hope to see you around!

[Corina]

Thank you, Verónica for being a great captain and for organising everything!
I had fun and enjoyed participating in the challenge with all of you!
I will try and slow my reading down a bit and watch some tv hahaha
Keep in touch :)
