Jamie, not sure if this is your cup of tea, but I read a while ago. The MC spends most of the book sailing.

Thank you for the recommendation! I just put myself on the wait list for this one from my library. I'll keep looking in the mean time while I wait for my hold to come in.

Thanks Michelle! I'm stuck but hopefully I'll find something soon.

Jamie, would it help if I swapped with you? Do you read big books...over 700 pages?

[Char]

Or maybe mine?
Would a character who travels a lot be easier?
I just read a book which has a pirate in it, who'd count for sailor..

[Donna, Chief Inspector]

I am guessing this team didn't see my post in the signup thread on December 6th...

https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

[Shan ~A~]

I totally missed it. Do you guys want to continue? If so, will we need to get a replacement player since we haven't seen Jamie in the thread for a while? Has anyone seen her in other challenges?

[Char]

I haven't seen her, either
I do want to continue, if everyones up for it

[Shan ~A~]

✅Char

[Michelle's Empty Nest]

I can continue to play on as well. I've seen her in other threads recently, but it's been about 5 weeks since she checked in here...

[Donna, Chief Inspector]

There are plenty of backups. I had people signing up just to be backups recently. They heard I was allowing people to reorganize teams. Imagine that...Just post in the signups. I bet you find someone quickly.

Scoleri Brothers:



The Scoleri Brothers, Nunzio & Tony are a ghostly pair of psychopathic brothers. They are killers who were sentenced in 1948 by Judge Stephen "the Hammer" Wexler for murder and sentenced to death by execution. The execution was performed at Ossining Prison via the electric chair. It's been over 40 years and some negatively charged Psychomagnotheric slime (or mood slime) among some court exhibits has manifested the Scoleri brothers in their ghostly electric chairs. Can you and your team capture them?
