[Tricia]

Finished my maze, finally! Took several wrong turns - one of which took me more than 20 books to get to the end and then back again. Phew! It was super fun, though.

I would love to start again, on easy this time please. :) Thanks

Wow this is such an interesting task! Like really... EXACTLY 2 even numbers?? I would have gone crazy finding a book~

Task: Read a book shelved (listed on the first page on GR) as overdrive - plurals and spelling acceptable

What does "overdrive" mean? I found the list of books tagged overdrive but if anyone has a description of what this task entails that would be much appreciated :)

Overdrive is a service that provides downloadable books and audiobooks to libraries for patrons to check out.

This task works like every other task. Find a book with "overdrive" on the first page of tags going in the direction you want to go and read it.

Andrea, don’t forget that if you’re going south, the four books have to meet the criteria to move south which is N-Z titles for all four books used to spell HELP or SKIP!

[Andrea]

oops, I forgot about that. I will correct the final two with my next books. thanks for reminding me ☺️

[Lory]

Quick Clarifying Question:
My task is to read a book where a character has a surprising and unexpected talent.

Would it work if they've known about their talent but it is unique to them? I was looking at reading White Hot Kiss.

Otherwise, would a cozy mystery where the person who solves the case isn't a detective so their surprising and unexpected talent is solving crime?

[Alyana]

Is there like an option of not finishing my maze? I'm just overwhelmed with my challenges ( I know it's my fault, I signed up too many).

[Steven]

Alyana, I’d say just stop updating it. You can always come back to it later if you change your mind!

[Sana]

Skipping task: Read a book shelved (listed on the first page on GR) as 2003 - plurals and spelling acceptable

Direction: North

H - Genesis - Robert Hunter (Character) 29/9/22
E - Bound in Darkness - Cynthia Eden (Author) 30/9/22
L - Her Guardian Angel - Larissa Ione (Author) 2/10/22
P - Mr. Ultra Mega Love - Mimi Jean Pamfiloff (Author) 30/9/22

[Steven]

Lory, I interpreted that one as meaning surprising and unexpected to the reader. So like if the tatted up motorcycle riding mechanic also happens to make perfect macarons, that’s surprising and expected to me as the reader. I’d say there is some wiggle room.

Steven wrote: "Alyana, I’d say just stop updating it. You can always come back to it later if you change your mind!"

Thanks Steven. I'd probably just do that.

And this way, if you do decide to come back, you still have your progress! :D

[Steven]

4 books for a SKIP/HELP to move east... into a dead end LOL!

[Keli]

So to skip one task we've got to read 4 books (either help or skip)?

[The other Sandy]

Keli wrote: "So to skip one task we've got to read 4 books (either help or skip)?"

Yes, the 4 books have to spell out either HELP or SKIP, and all 4 books have to move in the direction you need to go (all 4 having an even number of pages, all 4 having titles starting with N-Z, etc.).

Thanks Steven! I think the book I just finished meets that criteria.

[Tricia]

I finished my maze and was hoping to start a new one, but doesn't look like Sophie has been here for a few weeks. I know real life gets super busy! Anybody know if she'll be coming back?

She will! She's had a rough month or two, and she's a mod with another team challenge going. I'm sure she will check in again soon :D

If it at that position on the list when you pick to read it, you can go ahead and use it for the task.

Thanks Steven for keeping everyone on track and acting as an extra pair of eyes on here for me!

I'm happy with this definition if it is a surprising talent to you or to other people within their fictional world.

Sorry you're feeling overwhelmed with all the challenges. I end up going boom or bust with them too.

Absolutely just pause with the maze for as long as you need/want to. It should still be there whenever (and if) you want to come back to it.

[Sophie, The other one]

Argh! Hope the task to get back out again wasn't too bad.

Sorry!! All set up for you (and everyone else who has asked for a maze). When you sign in, it should be at the top of your screen.

You've hit a wall. You have to go west, then either north or south before you can go east again.

I just got this task, "Read a book about interconnecting families".
I am not sure what interconnecting families means. Any suggestions?

[Vaidehi]

Yes, anyone can join the maze challenge. Please give Mods some time to set new mazes for you guys. Until then, gather your energy; when the maze starts things get crazy... hhahah

May be it is like that show "Modern Family" where there are so many connections between them... Lol

Keli, I got this task again, and this time I am going for The Virgin Romance Novelist. Last time I read The Lightning-Struck Heart and it was funny like hell~ Thanks for the suggestions

[Vaidehi]

Gunit, you read "Book Lovers". Do you remember whether characters in it were virgin or not? I have this task in Maze and the other books are on wait list in my library~

[Tricia]

Vaidehi- Soul Eater by Lily Mayne. It's mm, excellent first book in a series, and Danny is a virgin.

Thanks Tricia but I have read that book already. The thing is I have Book Loves to be returned to library soon. So I thought, I will read it for this task. But it's alright. I think I will get The Virgin Romance Novelist soon from my Library.

[Kylie]

Does this cover of Dune classify as having a planet, star, sun, or moon on it? I believe it does, just want to have a second opinion :)
