If not, it can be used for the "heroine" tag (6 times).
Found the "ff" tag as well, 45x. :)


- Reptile on cover (turtles, snakes, lizards, alligators and crocodiles)
- Features a detective from before 1960's
- 250-300 pages
- tagged "heroine" (5 or more times)
- Red cover (>50%)
- 13 in publication date or page number
- Reptile on cover (turtles, snakes, lizards, alligators and crocodiles)
- Features a detective from before 1960's
I can cover both of these with Death on The Nile. Not going to be immediate thanks to the 750p chunkster currently on the go.

Could do red cover, but don't wanna waste one in the middle of UNO 😂
Anyone have one of these coming up? https://www.goodreads.com/shelf/show/...
There are some I could do, but will probably be a couple of weeks.

I will finish my other 2 books first, so if someone comes across a red cover sooner, then just delete mine. :)

I am reading a 136 page book, if you want to skip the 13 thingie.

So I'll probably need to either sleep through it or play on the PS for a bit before bed to manage it.

Eni gave me lots of hugs. Plus chocolate. The non so little minion also gave me hugs. And the kitties asked for snuggles.
Sadly, nothing seems to do the trick. It doesn't help that I can't just take a break till 6. Plus tomorrow I'll be working on site. Not happy with the turn of events.
spun a new Literary monster:
Dementor
250-300
Faceless person on cover
"tors" (in order) in title or series name
"soul-sucking" in text
Book series contains a .5

Thank you. That just passed me by! :)

Sonia - I really hope you got a decent sleep last night and the world is seeming like a more manageable place today.
Will have a search for tors/soul sucking and see what if anything I've got.

found one "soul-sucking" in my kindle books - in
which is very good, but I read recently, so not ready for a reread
ETA: might be worth asking other teams what they've used?

Even fracturing and guarding of souls.
Is a little sucking really too much to ask?
(Yeah, I know, that's what he said...)

I'm out. Probably an easier one for people who can search Kindles, lol.

Hannibal Lecter (The Silence of the Lambs)
1 500 to 650
2 Animal name/species in title
3 Double consonants in title (like tuNNel)
4 MC spends time alone
5 Red item on cover

If there is going to be no rush for the page count task, I may claim it (and double consonant) with Niccolo Rising, but will finish my 2 other books first, so I'll leave them free for the time being.

Found it dark and really funny. :)
