I have to sort each person manually from now on. But Griffindor is perfect :)

Welcome to the challenge!

[Diane]

I've finished task # 6 (read a book where one of your favourite characters die.)

My points should be on 60.

[[deleted user]]

What house are you in Diane?

[Diane]

Niecole, I'm in Hufflepuff.

[[deleted user]]

Whoop whoop so am I!

[Diane]

Bump me up to 70 points (for Hufflepuff). I've completed task #14!

[[deleted user]]

Go Diane!!!!!!

[Barbara]

Niecole, no it's not the first time I've read Harry Potter, but it's great to reread it. I just saw the latest movie and wanted to check it against the books. So that's why I reread it now and of course because I could use it for this challenge.
Talking about his challenge I just finished the Crookshanks task so my total is 260 points.

:)
How did you like the movie Barbara?
Harry Potter are some of the books that I love to reread! They have a special place in my heart, especially because my friend gave me the whole se (well then there were only 4) when I was in High School, and I couldnt believe that someone would give me such a wonderful gift!

[Barbara]

I know what you mean. I love the series because it's something that develops with the reader. The first book is really a children's book but I don't think you can say that about the seventh book.
I liked the movie but since it is part 1 of the deathly hallows I'm reserving judgement until part 2 is released. I have a lot of questions about the stuff they left out and about the point where they stopped. I'm not saying it's not a good moment to stop but it's 2/3 of the book so for part two they only have 1/3 left. So I'm just curious to what part 2 is like.

[Crusader]

Finished #15. Dragon on cover of King Arthur: Dragon's Child

Total: 160

[Emma]

I originally had number 13 as I AM NUMBER 4.

But I am going to swap it for NUMBER 20 instead, hope thats allowed. I recently read THE 5TH HORSEMAN By James patterson and I want to include it in the challenge so can I use it for number 13 instead.

13/20

TOTAL POINTS 130

Are there witches, witchcraft/magic in I Am Number Four? I thought it was about aliens.

[Lu]

Updated

Yea I'm a bit confused Emma?

Lu wrote: "Updated

Well I wasnt going with the witches wizards thing, more on the magic side? He does have abilities so isnt that classed as magic? How do you define magic.

Dictionary: any art that invokes supernatural powers

If its not allowed then Ill swap it back.

[Lu]

Ah get what you are saying. But I think its a bit of a stretch :(

How about nr 17, 11, 6 or 1?

[Emma]

Well I was trying to fit the 5th horseman into the challenge. Cant see anywhere else for it to go. So leave my points at 120 then. :-) Thanks

[Lu]

5th horseman will fit for nr 19

[Emma]

Ok Thanks Lu. :-)

[Diane]

Hit me for 80 points. Just finished task #8. (Hufflepuff)

[[deleted user]]

Finished nr 1 today

That makes it 120 for the challenge plus 2 HP books... 160 for me yay!

[Diane]

Niecole, awesome!!! Go Hufflepuff!

[Lauren]

Finished Beauty by Sheri S. Tepper

Total: 170/200

[Lauren]

Finished The Voyage of the Dawn Treader for no. 19.

Total: 180/200

[Emma]

Finished Number 7 Voldemort - Read a book about a villain or has one in it. – Take My heart – Mary Higgins Clark

I have changed a few around on my list so will update when finished.

[Anna]

I've finished No. 4, 17, and 20-- Clockwork Angel was really awesome. Sorry for disappearing so long... I'm pretty sure my total is 70 now.

[Emma]

Kahlan managed to send me a link for the ebook The Boys from Brazil By Ira Levin, and I was wondering if this book will qualify for Number 8:

8. Fred + George - Read a book about twins or has twins in it. The book is not about twins as such but about clones? What do you think...is it a stretch?

[Crusader]

If clones are allowed then I'm going to use the twin robots in Excession. They were created as a twinned pair so that has to count right?

[Lauren]

What robots were those? I can't remember them...

To be honest, I think clones are a bit of a stretch. However I won't be too fussed if they're accepted, but that's largely because I read a book with clones as well.
