For the first half I was mostly enjoying it but I found the main character's narration sooooo annoying and hated almost all side characters so in the end I gave it a 2...

[Lyndi (mibookobsession)]

Skipping Task: Read a book that covers multiple generations to go West. I want sure if this meant a book spread over generations of time or a book with grandparents, parents and children. Anyway, the only book I could think of had even pages not odd.

I listened to the audiobook and enjoyed the narrator's attempt at Ian's Scottish accent. Yes, I also thought the main character was a bit annoying and I was totally frustrated with Ian and his reasons for leaving for so long.

[Sophie, The other one]

For book depository tasks, you get a free choice of book that goes the direction you want to go.

I will try to find time to go through the task lists and take out the impossible ones, but it is not high priority round real life.

That's super helpful, thank you Sophie!

Woohoo! completed my 15x15 maze (and probably in less time than the 10x10, lol!).

I'm amazed there were no major detours for me this time. almost a direct line from one corner to the other 😁

(yes, absolutely going again! lol)

[Karen ♐]

I'm currently on my last one so I was going to ask if we can ask for another Maze after we finish.

[Sammy]

You can generate one yourself Karen

[Karen ♐]

It doesn't give me the option to create an account. Probably because I already have one?

[Judy]

Karen ♐ wrote: "It doesn't give me the option to create an account. Probably because I already have one?"

Yes, when you already have an account and are logged in and have finished your maze, it should say somewhere that you can create a new one - at least that's how it worked for me

[Karen ♐]

Ok. Thanks, Judy.

[Lyndi (mibookobsession)]

I'm working on my fourth. I'm totally obsessed with this game lol! I even expanded to a 15×15 size to make it more challenging.

[Lyndi (mibookobsession)]

I got Task: Read a book where a character is a succubus/incubus. The only book on listopia that evenly remotely interested me was one of the Dresden files books by Jim Butcher which I've already read. So I'm skipping.

I'm trying very hard not to skip anything, but every now and then there's one of those tasks that just defeats me 😆

[Steven]

I need to pick my maze back up. I got stuck on an awful task and then the holidays hit and I completely forgot about it all.

[Sophie, The other one]

I'm on to my last task, then will almost certainly be making myself a new one.

Starting to think about the possibility of some slightly more themed mazes - would you all like alphabet mazes (with tasks for author and character names) or genres/tags?
