*giggles*

You mean like the one I'm currently reading?



The MC on the cover also has 11 siblings, so, I also have #4

[Sammy]

Behold my psychic powers! I didn't even need to check your currently reading. 😆

[Sonia]

Just so you know, the next series on my list has some unexpected covers :P

[Sammy]

I'd save those for when Uno starts in a few days, lol! In fact, you have a beautiful green 8 there we could use 😁

[Sonia]

Isn't it claimed yet?

I guess I can find another U book if I really want.

[Sammy]

I've got the other greens covered, but 8 is still up for grabs.

[Sammy]

(I can read for it if you don't want to save them, I have options for all the unclaimed colours, lol)

[Cat]

is that a woman wearing white on the cover?

if not, it works for the kowabunga page count

[Sonia]

Nah, I'm good.

There are other members on the team. Our word is Fabulous this week, so, after seeing so many Us claimed, I'll probably should focus on the As and Ls anyway. LOL.

[Sammy]

Looks white to me!

Also lol @ kowabunga 😂

[Melindam]

She's wearing white for sure. :)

[Sonia]

So... we just found out Cat's favorite Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle

*giggles*

[Sammy]

I think we're all showing our age here 😂

[Melindam]

:D

[Melindam]

Forever Young (and... immature) ,;)

[Sonia]

Torso and brother done!

[Cat]

ooooh! it looks like Mel's about to spin!

[Melindam]

Rolling Calf sent off, can I ask someone to take over the responsibility and do a new spin? :)

Thank you.

[Cat]

not Mel..... do you really want to risk me? - no!

Sonia, if you're about still - go for it :)

otherwise I'll wait an hour and then spin for us - which should motivate someone to rescue us from that nightmare!

[Sonia]

I have no idea how to spin? LOL

[Sonia]

OK... found out how... here goes nothing!

[Sonia]

So... we got Drop Bear

500 to 650
Read a book set in Australia
Read a book with a surprise twist (your interpretation)
Read a book with a carnivore on the cover (make sure it's not an omnivore!)
Read a book with author initials found in VEGEMITE.

[Sonia]

Well this one is not that bad... I was in the mood for a red dirt heart re-read... we can use #1 for tree on cover and #2 for both Australia and surprise twist.

Because Travis interview was pretty much a being deported conclusion and then one of the ranch hands managed to change the officials' minds.

Also, my current reading is by Taylor Rylan, so, I can also knock out the VEGEMITE option.

And I feel a bit like Sammy planning all the tasks... somebody stop me!!!!

[Cat]

They are all yours!

also: you are cycling through coffee mug images at a rate of knots!

[Sonia]

Ahahahahh. Well, this one is more me. For now. I might change profile pic soon.

[Melindam]

Thanks Sonia, for spinning.

Had to go to a meeting just at the worst moment... how annoying.🤭

[Sammy]

Teehee, planning is contagious! 😂

[Melindam]

I have been reading/listening to King Hereafter should we need a 800+ book (David Rintoul is sooo good narrating it), and don't want to commit to any 500 pagers before I finish that.

Parallelly, I will finally tackle Lisbon: War in the Shadows of the City of Light, 1939-45 and afterwards Norse Mythology for the MPG Mythology task, unless someone beats me to that task -- feel free! :) Otherwise, I will get there eventually.

[Sammy]

Dang it! My current book is 654 pages! 😂

[Cat]

I need to read a dragon book soon, so can take that carnivore on cover one :)

[Sonia]

Well.. I refuse to do a monster all by myself, so I won't say I'll read



*giggles*

plus it's #2 in the series, the first one has a wolf on the cover but it's on the 400 pages range.

LOL

oooohhhhh dragons....

[Sophie, The other one]

Sylar is gone. Instead Kilgrave has come to call.

350 to 450
MC can change thoughts/actions through magic, mind control or psychic powers
Purple cover
Author initials (all) in KILGRAVE
Character has "jess" in name


Cat - I'm reading so might end up booting your carnivore depending on who finishes first.

[Cat]

That's fine, I guess.

I strongly do NOT recommend Iron Flame for anyone hoping for anything other than ridiculous angst (friendship and relationship), ridiculous pining and kissing and ridiculous (postponed) sex scenes....
ETA: forgot, you also need to be braced for even more super specialness from the heroine.

The best dragon has vanished from the book so far too...

[Cat]

which of us is finally going to find a Steampunk they want to read?!
I feel like people aren't writing steampunk anymore...

[Melindam]

Even when book 1 was chosen as BOM, based on the cover blurb, I decided to avoid this series.

It is clearly not for me, so I am glad for the confirmation. :)

Sorry it gives you such trouble, Cat.

[Melindam]

If you like "romantasy" with political intrigue, nice world-building, slow-burn romance and devoid of smut, I can recommend Troubled Waters or Mystic and Rider by Sharon Shinn.

[Melindam]

I could grab The Subtle Knife. It has been on my physical bookshelf for a loooong time. (I just keep forgetting what exactly happened in Book 1...)

But will only do so after I tackled Lisbon, Norse Mythology and King Hereafter.

If you don't mind waiting for it...

[Sonia]

If (and that's a big IF) I stumble accross a mm steampunk book, that actually has it as MPG I might read it. LOL

[Sonia]

You can't say things like devoid of smut without half a dozen of trigger warnings... it's just not right.

[Cat]

There's no rush on the steampunk!
and IIRC, The Subtle Knife starts off with Will, not Lyra, so we catch up with events from Northern Lights in-book.

[Sophie, The other one]

I was planning to have a search for steampunk because I've enjoyed the bits I've read in the past but my brain is trying to process too many things.

Bleurgh on Iron Flame - I had thought about reading it because the world has some interesting bits, but not sure I can deal with YA/MA angst and ridiculousness.

ETA I say this having read bits of S J Maas, the first iron flame and recent From Blood and Ash, all of which have a lot of people giving them rave reviews.

Oh, good to know! :)

[Sammy]

I can do steampunk, but may be a couple of weeks...

I have a few to choose from, Expedition to the Mountains of the Moon being a very strong contender. That series is just glorious, so I have no idea why the heck I wait so long between books!

[Sophie, The other one]

I've put something in for steampunk, which means we have 5 tasks unclaimed!

Author initials in VEGEMITE
MC can change thoughts/actions through magic, mind control or psychic powers
Purple cover
Author initials (all) in KILGRAVE
Character has "jess" in name

[Melindam]

Maybe it's pushing it a bit, but one of the MCs in King Hereafter is kind of psychic (he can see the future and the past) and while people know that what he says comes to pass, some of them are influenced to try and avoid them. Not everyone and not Macbeth, but still??

Are we OK with it?

I slot the book for the task, but if you say no, I'll just delete it afterwards.

[Cat]

I'm good with that!

Snagged the VEGEMITE author taks

[Melindam]

Goodie. :)

[Sophie, The other one]

Monster 101 is on the new page!
was better than anticipated.

200 to 299
Book 3 in a series
Reptile on cover (turtles, snakes, lizards, alligators and crocodiles)
Features a detective from before 1960's
Tagged FF (at least 10 times)

[Sammy]

Awesome. Reading a 216 page book atm.

I'm also reading The Windsor Knot, which features the late queen as she solves a murder. The book is set in 2016, but it is mentioned in the book that she's been solving crimes throughout her reign. Too stretchy, or can we count her?
