I have to say, on the startpage I saw a lot of books you read I found interesting :) You're contributing to my digital tbr quite a bit xD
I'm updating It tomorrow, I'm too lazy to get my macbook to update it now xD Finished it today and it had Werewolf in it which actually did surprise me :o

I was spying around a bit, and I looked at Richard's team. If you want to see the most beautiful SS of all ever, you need to check theirs out, I went crazy after seeing that. I also fear Richard's update on the Big Books Challenge xD

An imp is a European mythological being similar to a fairy or demon, frequently described in folklore and superstition. The word may perhaps derive from the term ympe, used to denote a young grafted tree.
Imps in general are susceptible to the effects of Spirit.
1. Read a book with a ghost in the story
2. MC can see and talk to ghosts
3. Title starts with any of the letters from SPIRIT.
4. Read a book where a séance is performed

Honestly, I didn't like it 😅 Was too much for me... As I wrote I was just drained after finishing it, and not in a good way like "oh this book made me feel so much it's so good".
Damn I was lucky with this bonus monster anyways, I started a book yesterday that fits it perfectly xD I'll probably take around 2 to 3 days to finish it.
I hope I get notified now when there's something in this post, the box is checked again but I don't know why it unchecked in the first place 😅

As far as I know its up to you if you use articles or not, so yes! ^^
There’s another bonus monster on the way, I’m going to have to change my plans for the week to try and fit it in
There’s something about numbers in book title, red covers and then hats on the cover, plus something else
Cassie Cruel wrote: "There’s something about numbers in book title, red covers and then hats on the cover, plus something else"Sounds like it might fit a book I wanted to read this month but couldn't fit in a challenge yet The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and Other Ghostly Tales 🤔 I guess the red fits, but the real question is does a pumpkin head count as a hat? 🤣
I'm having a hard time with the Killer Clown challenge though, I picked some big books for the tasks and I've been wanting to read the books more slowly to annotate.

The redcap is a type of malevolent, murderous goblin found in Border folklore. He is said to inhabit ruined castles along the Anglo-Scottish border, especially those that were the scenes of tyranny or wicked deeds and is known for soaking his cap in the blood of his victims. He is also known as Redcomb and Bloody Cap.
Redcaps had a set of superstitions intricately interweaving with one another. In particular, they believed even numbers were unlucky, and thus would only carry odd numbers of coins and formed groups with an odd number of members.
1. Read a book with a number in the title
2. Read a book with a castle on the cover
3. Read a book with a red cover
4. Read a book with a hat/cap on the cover

The Imp is Dead!!Same. I just read Eureka by Edgar Allan Poe, I need to recover and try to untangle my brain.
I'm gonna take a bit more time, probably finishing it tomorrow or friday at latest. I'm juggling a lot of books 🙈
