Mini Pufts:



These mini pufts looked like they were just having fun at the grocery store, making smores of themselves. They were cute then. Now they are inside your car. They have multiplied over and over again. There are hundreds of them. They are tampering with your equipment. None of it is working. Looks like you need a new plan. Can you defeat them?



Tasks

👻Read a small book (100-150 pages)

👻Read a book with a car on the cover

👻Read a book with smores (or the items to make a smore) on the cover

👻Read a book where there is a lot of one item on the cover

[Laura]

I don't think I can do the s'mores, although I'll take at look at some other teams and see what others have found.

The small book and the car on cover would take me a while to get to. But I can easily do a lot of one item on the cover with a current read.

[Laura]

Here's what I found from other teams:



I don't hate Erin Nicholas, so I could do Gimme S'more. It looks like most teams read S'Mores and Spells. It's only 142, so I could maybe do that one instead. If no one else wants the s'more book.

[Louise]

I can do small book or smores

[LaurLa]

I can do small book and car right away. I'm also okay taking on the smore's book - I did a search on "s'more" and there are a decent number of options besides the ones Laura found. Mostly cozy mysteries, but that's to be expected. I was surprised at the number of covers showing just roasting marshmallows over a fire with no chocolate or graham in sight! But still several options.

[Berit☀️✨]

I’m good with whatever I might need a little help with the cover items but I’m sure I will find something

[Laura]

How about this?

Bug-eyed Ghost & Miner Ghost:



The bug-eyed ghost is a class 5 ghost. It is purple with a reptilian face, two small green eyes, and a larger third eye on its "forehead". It has 3 fingered hands and small horns near its eyebrows and at the top of its head. It is spotted flying through a window.

The Miner ghost is a skeletal zombie-like miner. It is a class 3 ghost. It just casually sat down in a diner and waited to be served on by a busy waitress who barely noticed who she was serving at first.

Can your team catch these two ghosts?



Tasks

👻Read a book with a bug on the cover

👻Read a book that is #3 in any series

👻Read a skeleton on the cover

👻Read a book with a reptilian creature

[Louise]

I can do skeleton or #3

[LaurLa]

Of course, I just finished a book with a spider....

I know I have 2 books somewhere in my TBR with a bee and a butterfly, so could do bug but would rather not unless no one else has one.

Same with skeleton - I can do it but it's not on my radar at the moment. (and also just finished a book with a skeleton!)

I can do reptilian with Consort of Fire - assuming a dragon is considered reptilian, which I think they generally are?

Of course, #3 is easy!

[Laura]

I have an August book club book with a spider on the cover. I’ve already got it checked out in KU, so can I take that task?

Spiders work, right? The task says bug, not insect!

[Berit☀️✨]

I can do skeleton if someone doesn’t mind giving me some options of books with skeletons on the cover, lol

[LaurLa]

Berit - I love this series and all the covers have some sort of skeleton. It's a little cozy paranormal mystery-ish... which I normally don't like cozies, but I still love the series.

And Michelle has them on her shared drive if you decide you want to read one.

[Berit☀️✨]

OK I picked up the first on Audible plus.

[LaurLa]

So is this the plan?

Louise - 👻Read a book that is #3 in any series

Looks good to me.

My spider book is taking longer to get to, but my current audio has butterflies on the cover, which are considered to be insects, so that one works for my task.

[LaurLa]

Yeah, I'm struggling to get to my dragon book too. But I'll get there... eventually!

Do you want to switch? My current ebook read has a dragon on the cover for Tower Teams.

[LaurLa]

I won't be any closer to an insect. Dragon is actually easier - it's just not fitting well with other challenges right now. But it's on my radar for this coming week.

No biggie. I'm reading both right now and will have them finished by tomorrow at the latest. So I'll post the insect, but let me know if you want me to change my post to the dragon. :)

Yes it was cute. Thank you for the recommendation.

LaurLa, how is your dragon book coming along? Or bug book if you want me to switch my completion post.

Um....
