Jean | 108 comments Just checking in on the mini. My book Too Wrong to Be Right had a hedgehog with quills on the cover. I see the streaked tenrec has quills as one of the get creative options. I don’t what you used the book for originally but if it was an easier task maybe you would want to switch it. I probably didn’t put that down as an option originally because I didn’t think about the connection.

✿~Danielle~✿ (dmh1) | 1759 comments Just to let you know, you can stop adding info for main cards and just add the mini info for your books.

We only have one main card an 8, which is for Daniela’s book.

Doing well on the mini too. We have completed 70, so just 30 left!

Jean | 108 comments I’ve added 3 books that I will get read by the end of the month. I may have one or two others but I’m not sure if they will fit in as they will be for another challenge.

Excellent.

Does Dead End works for any task, even if they’re already filled, I can maybe do some swapping? It doesn’t quite fit for a colour.

Ashleigh | 915 comments Do you guys think my current read would work for Boatbill? The main character lives alone. Don't know if that's enough for a connection.

Boatbill has a creative task, but lives alone can work for platypus.


message 474: by Ashleigh (new)

Ashleigh | 915 comments Oh sorry, I was looking at the wrong bit on the ss lol. I'll put it in for platypus. Thank you!

I’ve added in the ones I know it fits, if you can make it work great if not that okay too.

Jhmingos | 417 comments FYI, I think The Performance was entered twice in the mini-task SS. It works for set in Australia and someone working nights.


message 480: by Ashleigh (new)

Ashleigh | 915 comments I've taken The Performance out of set in Australia and used for someone working nights so that space is free.
