I found a cozy mystery with a halloween theme. Not as long, but. If only Children of Time gave a hint as to the characters on the cover, instead of that lovely planet and spaceship, I would read the third book.

There are plenty of books with spiders - I just hate those things!!

Whose turn was it to pick? I just finished my books, and can check us in. Maybe we can get at least part of another monster done by the end of the month :)
Didn't I choose last time? Go for it. Pick a good one!
Went for MUTOs. Fingers crossed it's not a horrible one, lol.
Could be a Thanksgiving massacre. If it only attacks in the States, then say a kind word for me and Angie.
Mod
Two means they could attack in multiple places at one time ; )

The MUTOs are prehistoric parasites. They survived by attacking and killing members of Godzilla's species and laying their eggs in the carcasses. A male & female MUTO that emerged from spores left in carcasses found each other in San Francisco. They built a nest together but Godzilla killed them to stop them from reproducing. The military destroyed the nest.
To capture the MUTOs, you will need 8 chains (there are 2 of them).
Complete the following tasks:
MUTO (male)
Arm 1: Read a chain of 3 books with the letters MUTO in the title
Arm 2: Read a chain of 3 books with a man on the cover
Leg 1: Read a chain of 3 books set in California
Leg 2: Read a chain of 3 books with a military character
MUTO (female)
Arm 1: Read a chain of 3 books where someone tries to get pregnant or reproduce
Arm 2: Read a chain of 3 books with a woman on the cover
Leg 1: Read a chain of 3 books starting with a letter in MUTO (you must decide as a team which letter to use- you must all use the same letter)
Leg 2: Read a chain of 3 books with a prehistoric animal (they do not have to be the same animal)
I vote we go for T for the female leg 1 😉
That works. "The" starts a lot of books.
Sammy, isn't it time for you to read
? Plenty of prehistoric animals in that one!!!!!!
ahahaha! If I get through what I want to get through and still have time I'll finally bite, lol.
Mod
I'm happy either way, though would definitely not feel the pressure to rush through them! 😁
So we are trying to finish the Muto books before the end of the month, yes?I am also fine with either stopping there or continuing at a leisurely pace.
So definitive in my decision making today!
Angie, you get to decide or flip a coin, and it looks like we will go along with your's or fate's choice.
Never thought I would say this, but that dinosaur book isn't long enough... 😂Trying to only read 10-pointers for the rest of the month. Have 2 more coming up and possibly time for one more after that, but having trouble finding a 900+ pager with prehistoric animals in!
so... A LOT of searching later. I have found out that giant turtles are prehistoric, according to Encyclopedia Brittanica, and giant turtles show up in A Dance with Dragons.I have spent far longer looking for something for that task than I would have liked, but I shall plow through and add that to the list of stuff to read before the end of the month, lol.
Well I feel like a slacker!I am not doing only 900+ page books. Sorry!!!!
Glad you found one.
although I'm not sure I'll get to the california book too. Maybe I can squeeze in a shorty, lol.

Tails = End
It was 3 Tails in a row! Lol
Unless one of you want to overrule.
Never dispute a coin flip!Besides, I have a feeling the three of us will team up in future.
Works for me.We make a good team. We're all

I'd forgotten how good A Dance with Dragons actually is... Hadn't read it since I read it the minute the paperback released 😂 Just a shame I'll never know the rest of the story... *sigh*

Whatever do you mean? There are over 500 reviews of the next book in the series, and it has a rating of 4.40 stars. So, how is it that you haven't read it yet?
teehee
I have not gotten that far in the series yet. One of these days...
It's one of those series that gets better as it goes, IMO.Anyone who thinks that Martin is going to bother to actually write the final two books however is delusional. 😂

LOL! I wasn't online much last week, family Thanksgiving trip! I'm working on catching up!
I didn't think you'd want to miss out on free bonus points for all your list books ;)
Teehee!You ever get the feeling people are talking about you? 😁

There is a phrase we use a lot in the UK that perfectly sums up the situation..."Come and have a go if you think you're hard enough!" 😂😂😂
So, if we are targets, does that mean we are on the same team? Pretty please?
Mod
The three us us & Tru (another big reader) against all comers? Could be highly entertaining. And possibly bloody. Snowman guts everywhere...
😂
