LOL

[Sammy]

I have several books with 33 in the page count. Happy to read one next turf round if no-one else grabs it before then.

[Melindam]

I was hoping to keep doorstoppers for Wheel, lol.
I can take one of the 650+ pagers, but will probably take me some time to finish.

[Sammy]

I personally have no objections if we hold off on reading the 651+ books until Wheel starts. It's not that long to wait :)

[Melindam]

It's OK, I can finish one before that. :)

[Melindam]

For the Good-Evil imagery, are we OK with good guy on front and bad guy on the side or back cover?

Oh Cat... this is not ideal!

[Sammy]

The Fireman would be an excellent one for task 2, if anyone was thinking of reading it.

[Melindam]

I guess virus cannot be malware or? ;)

[Melindam]

Finished Pimpernel. There was a skirmish and brawl, but not a single sword was drawn, ever.
Will try and find another book for the sword task.

[Sammy]

That's surprising! I definitely remember plenty such in the adaptation. Haven't gotten around to reading it yet 😊

[Melindam]

Lots of swashes got buckled and buckles got swashed in the film adaptations, alas, nada in the book. ;)

[Sammy]

How would we feel about this being used for black bird on the cover?

It's black, and helicopters are often referred to as "birds"

Too stretchy?

[Melindam]

:D I wouldn't mind

[Melindam]

We defeated Echidna and have a Sphinx

200 to 299
characters go on a journey
MC must solve a riddle
Mountain on cover
brown cover

[Melindam]

And I can take the brown cover slot. Currently listening to and a really good series of lectures, too. 😀

[Sammy]

To save Cat the horror: I can take the brown cover 😂

[Sammy]

Didn't see your post Mel. Looks pretty brown to me! :)

[Melindam]

Goodie! ;)

[Cat]

thank you for saving me from the brown!

I'm back from a lovely long weekend n Bruges, the main drawback being the forced socialisation meant very little reading. But I'll have finished with Niccolo this evening :)

[Melindam]

How do you find Niccolò?

[Cat]

I'm enjoying it a lot, though he's a bit of a paragon! Great in the sack, with ethics, a canny businessman and spy and can fight too...

[Melindam]

Good. :) I am really looking forward to reading (listening to) it for Wheel.

[Cat]

Finished off a monster and spun us a new one. shockingly, I got a short page count!

Ropen
1 100 to 175
2 Light source on cover
3 Letters in REOPEN in Title
4 Author name starts with PN or G
5 MC goes outside at night

👏😜

[Cat]

I've got a Georges Simenon to read, which is 160 pages & author name.

I suspect MC will go out at night, but can't guarantee as yet.

Doesn't have the letters :(

[Melindam]

I have a book that would work for letters and also for author name starts with N, but will not claim it just yet. I will start on The Dragon Reborn and my brown book still needs quite some listening.

I claimed the virus/bacteria slot, there is a lecture on the plague/black death included, so I guess it's good enough
:)

[Sammy]

Back from my trip to Bebbanburg, but so tired I can barely see straight, so will look at what's what in the morning 😁

[Cat]

so, I'll be finishing a book that defo works for light source on cover this evening, but have already finsihed:

which has star and lightning shapes on the cover. Do we think this is acceptable for "Light source on cover"?? :D

Yes from me. :)

[Sammy]

double yep :)

[Cat]

does someone else want to spin? or you trust whtever mayhem I land us in??

Asian wheel:https://wheeldecide.com/?c1=Ropen&...

[Melindam]

Just go on and spin, Cat!! :D

don't blame me! you were given an out!

Babi Ngepet

5 Something is stolen

[Melindam]

I don't. 🥰

[Cat]

excitingly I think we are now at 30 dead monsters! Though I suspect Wheel will slow us down now

[Sammy]

We need to spin lots of musical monsters and we'll be fine 😂

[Sophie, The other one]

Only time we'll be hoping they come up

Cat wrote: "excitingly I think we are now at 30 dead monsters! Though I suspect Wheel will slow us down now"

That's a lot monsters, so well done us. 😍

Apologies, but I think I'll end up postponing starting my The Dragon Reborn for Wheels.

So if you complete books that will work for its slots, just remove it.

If not, it'll keep. :)

[Melindam]

On the other hand, in the next couple of days I'll finish 2 books that will help to do away with Babi Ngepet and Sphinx.

[Sophie, The other one]

Penny-wise has been sent away, with his balloon. Instead Grendel's Mother has appeared.

1 350-400
2 Title includes a relationship (i.e. Clockmaker's Daughter)
3 Char loses a limb or is an amputee
4 Oldest book on your TBR list (publication date)
5 """hark"" in text"

[Melindam]

For task "Title includes a relationship", is The Case of the Horrified Heirs acceptable?

In a way "heir" is a relationship, at least legally. Or?

[Cat]

I'd say so - being heir is definitely a relationship to the bequeather after all.

You might have noticed that I picked up a Perry Mason for the oldest book task :)

I did! That's what gave me the idea to go through my titles to see what may work for this. 😉

I will still read this before Wheel officially starts, together with The Sands of Time. I'll keep everything else after the 7 October deadline.

[Cat]

The two I've got in (Triffids & Sulky Girl) I'll finish today or tomorrow. If I claim anymore I'll be clear if they are finish before Wheel or start after, so Sammy can bump if she prefers :D

[Sammy]

Sammy is struggling getting back into the swing of things after the unsettled week... will get there eventually, lol.

[Melindam]

Babi Ngepet is gone. Here's KAPPA

350 to 450
MPG Children's
