The team is called to the hotel to investigate a ghost sighting on the 12th floor. Team member 2 sees it eating. It is a small green, slimy, see-through ghost. You try to catch him but miss and catch the wall on fire. It takes off. Team member 1 sights it in the hallway and is slimed as it runs straight through him/her. The ghost is then found in the ballroom. Your team is making quite a mess of the ballroom as it attempts to capture this ghost. There are small fires all around the room. broken furniture and food is strewn around. Don't forget that you shouldn't cross your streams! That could be very dangerous! Can you capture him or will he get away?

👻Read a book with a green cover (min 50%)
👻Read a book with fire on the cover
👻Read a book with a food item in the title
👻Read a book that starts with a letter in BALLROOM
I know I can do food in title or Ballroom. I’ll have to check on the others.
I can do any but first choice would be ballroom, then probably fire.
Does this look like it hits 50% green?
. If so, I can also do the green cover.
I was just checking the Q&A to ask about a fire cover when I saw that no drinks are allowed for the food in title task. I can still do the task, but just wanted to make sure LaurLa & Louise weren't planning a drink title.
Thanks for checking on that - no drink for me. Bananapants is my food book if needed.
i'd prefer not to do something on the cover, those really are the hardest for me. But I can definitely do food or of course ballroom.
Does the cover I posted above look green enough?
Does this look good?Tasks (Reminder: You must each choose a different task)

yesterday. So if you need it, and if this challenge allows for a pass/cover from another player, we can just this one if needed. But I'm still hoping you come through the weekend okay! You have had entirely too much drama in your life the last few years. You deserve a few years with nothing at all happening!

Walter Peck forcibly shut down your facility's protection grid causing it to explode. This releases all the ghosts you previously caught. The Subway Ghost retreated to the Subway. It emerged at street level on Broadway and Murray st. While wailing and howling, it flailed its arms and mouth tentacles frightening citizens. Can your team capture him?
Tasks
👻Read a book with a character named Walter
👻Read a book that is a frightening tale (your interpretation)
👻Read a book that has all the letters of the word TENTACLES in the title/series
👻Read a book where something explodes in the story
Too bad I finished Night this morning. That is a truly frightening look at the Holocaust.I actually have a Walter in a Turf Wars list book. And a little searching shows an explosion in my last Clown book. I've also got TENTACLES in a couple of my titles. (You can combine title & series title for that task, according to the Q&A.)
So I can do any except Frightening tale. Although I do have one book that has some frightening aspects that might work.
Looks like I can do pretty much any of them too. I'm getting ready to start Dreamfever and it will be frightening (in more ways than one). I'm sure it will have an explosion as well.
I sent Louise a quick reminder so we can plan our ghost attack.
So sorry, went to check for a book and got sidetracked. I can do explosion or frightening
