Just finished the last book for the Abominations Unto Nuggan, so new monster incoming.

[Melindam]

Very fitting for October, even if it's a re-spin.

Vampire Pumpkins
1. 100 to 175
2. Book has a clear sense of season
3. Orange item on cover
4. Main antagonist is not very effective (your interpretation)
5. Title starts with letter in BLOOD

[Sammy]

[Sammy]

[Melindam]

🥰

We have done very well.

Strange about Bob from Twin Peaks. I could've sworn we have had those set of tasks. 🤔

I did look - quickly - but couldn't see him

[Melindam]

Then I may remember checking his tasks at one point when I could remember at least some of them. 😅

[Sammy]

I'm just happy we finally got that Chupacabra! 😁

Back from hospital, on aonther 2 weeks enforced rest, so books galore 😁😁😁

[Sophie, The other one]

Welcome back from hospital! Hope the kitchen refit has been done so you are at least back to a normal level of mayhem.

Impressed by how far through that list we've got! There are more Greek monsters left than I expected.

[Sammy]

thanks Sophie.

Nope, not even close, but hubby did clean up all the plaster dust while I was in the hospital. he'll be starting on the cabinets tomorrow, and new countertops and oven/hob/extractor coming mid_week, so should at least be functional in about a week :)

[Melindam]

Take care, Sammy. Glad to have you back.

[Melindam]

Sammy, your Santiago book could go to the task "set in Spain" if you are OK with it. I'm reading mine, but it's a slow boat to China (Spain) and a lot of struggle.

[Sammy]

Yep, no problem.

[Sammy]

Chupacabra done!

The Lavish Family

1 200-299
2 Mental Health MPG
3 MC is very rich
4 tagged family at least 10x
5 glove or ring on the cover


(the pretty colour coded bar is missing from this one. Can someone not in a post-op haze make it purty please?)

[Melindam]

I'll have a look. :)

[Melindam]

And thank you. ♡ xx

[Sammy]

De nada 😁

[Melindam]

I adjusted the formulas, so it's pretty now. 😉

[Sammy]

Yay, gracias!

[Melindam]

I can take the family tag task and character is very rich.

[Sammy]

I've got nothing in my up and coming for those except page count, but I do have another for the vampire pumpkins 😁

[Melindam]

Domi can take the page count with Wimpy Kid 2. :)

[Sophie, The other one]

should be finished later today and has gloves on the cover.

[Sammy]

Awesome!

I'm on with my 500=pager right now, should be done tomorrow. Possibly even this evening, but that depends on hubby 😆

[Melindam]

Sammy, I'm so grateful to you for the El Camino book. After trying to get on with The Wise King for a month now and only reaching 25% today I finally gave up on it and feel so relieved!
We clearly didn't have book chemistry.

[Sammy]

It happens.

And don't ever feel you have to read a book for a task when you aren't getting on with it. Between us we'll figure it out 😁

[Sammy]

Finished Vashta Nerada

The Ice Warriors

1 350 to 450
2 "Mars" in text
3 Armor or helmet on cover
4 Takes place in a cold climate
5 Red cover (>50%)

[Melindam]

I will finish my assassination book tomorrow. :)

[Melindam]

And I will grab Mental Health MPG. I have been planning to listen to the Britney Spears book some time, so this is a good prompt.

[Melindam]

Prince Cadram has finished ruling.

We have a new Vegi-Might Monster: Audrey Jr.

1. 500 to 650
2. MC murders or kills someone
3. Red cover (at least 50%)
4. Little or synonym in title
5. Standalone book (not part of a series)

[Melindam]

I think I'm slipping into my before-challenge-mood, where I'm unwilling to start anything new just yet, because you never know... 😅

I will finish the Britney book before Saturday, that's for sure. Everything else is uncertain.

[Sammy]

I'm still doing several challenges right now, so have no such issues 😆

[Melindam]

I know. ;)) ♡

[Melindam]

Just saying that under Karen's Creative Directorship, I'll be launching a seasonal audiobook challenge (4 months, individual) over at Perks in November. ;)

[Sammy]

Send me a link when you've got it up, and I'll come take a looksee 😉

[Melindam]

♡

[Cat]

so.... I'm reading Cat's Eye, 512 pages, but also taking place in a cold climate (Canada, much is made of the snow and cold)

Thoughts on placement?

I'm absolutely good with that. :)

[Cat]

it's an either/or, sadly :(

would we rather fill in the page count (given Wheels starting soon with its novel approach to encouraging length) or the setting?

I'm slightly minded to setting, I guess, knowing Sammy's proclivities!

[Melindam]

Sorry, obviously I didn't read the whole post. I processes Canada only.

[Melindam]

I'm waiting to see what our 1st wheel word will be and then I'm sure I can find a 500+ pager

[Cat]

I'll pop it into cold setting then :)

Thanks for bouncing thoughts off with me!

[Melindam]

♡

[Melindam]

Between inferior painting and leaking roofes. ;)

[Sammy]

GR being awkward for anyone else right now? I keep getting error messages 😢

[Melindam]

Not getting notifications with new update noone bothers to announce and my wheel 9 shelf which I created on sign-up has disappeared as I was looking to link it this morning. :s

[Sammy]

typical. Sucky timing GR!
