While neither of my current books work for these, they would all be fairly easy for me to do! I'm not sure that I even have any preferences.However I do leave for the Philippines tomorrow which is about 21 hours in flight time. If possible to know the task before I head out, I can finish en route which would be ideal.
The book I'm about to start works for #2 and #3 but I also have a book that works for #4. So my preference is anything BUT #1 :)
I'll take #3 since it seems to be the least popular and I have a book where they travel through a portal.
Not sure what Jen wants since she is probably already traveling but let's give her #2 since it's the easiest and may fit what she's reading while traveling.So does this work:
Catsalive #1
JenK #2
Danielle #3
Alicia #4

The mirror on the cover, #1, would be the most difficult one for me. Nothing started for the others but I can find something that works.
I have 3 books I have to read by the 10th for another team challenge and either #2 or #4 works for them so I'd appreciate getting one of those. Otherwise I can look for something for #1 but I won't read it until after the 10th.Catsalive can you do #1?
Thanks Catsalive! I've been scanning all my book lists and nothing for mirror. Danielle, Gypsy Soul, would it be okay if I took #4 then? I have something borrowed with a two word title.

A lot of ghosts this time!!I have good options for next reads for #1 and 2. My current book has #4 including the battle of Waterloo or least an alternative version. I can find one for #3 if needed too,
The book I'm reading fits for #4 but I have something I can read for #1 or #3 as well. Could probably find #2 would just take me a bit longer.
So not sure what Alicia will want but I think both 1 and 3 are pretty easy so how about:#1 - Catsalive
#2 - JenK
#3 - Alicia
#4 - Danielle
Sorry for not checking in til now, work and home have been a bit crazy. #3 looks good, I’m sure I can find a book that fits 😊
