Dee (austhokie) | 1124 comments We all know the game that Roger and Bri play in several books in the series, so here it is with a challenge twist

Duration: January 1 - December 31, 2012

Goal: Imagine you are playing the ministers cat with Brianna and Roger...read a book with a word in the title that you could use when it is your turn while playing the game.

The book title should make sense when used in the sentence, The Ministers Cat is a ....... cat

For example: The ministers cat is an
A - Attack cat - Attack of the Fiend

For the letters Q, X, Y and Z...the letter needs to appear somewhere in the title.

You don't have to read the books in order, if you don't want, but for an extra challenge try it out.

If you decide to participant - use the same post each time, and I'll hyperlink it to the participants list in msg 2

message 20: by Diane (new)

Diane | 1360 comments I am impressed with these lists! For you all that are up to this challenge do you also plan doing the outlander group rereads? Where do you find the time to read all of this? Right now there are a lot of books that I am interested in reading ( along with the outlander rereads) and do not want to be restrained by titles. Maybe at some point I will be up to a challenge like this. Happy reading!


message 21: by Gwennie, biblioholic (last edited Dec 31, 2011 04:52PM) (new)

Gwennie (blessedwannab) | 3151 comments LOL, I do a majority of the rereads. I have buddy reads and group reads in other groups too. The nice thing about this challenge is that it's over a year.

And challenges like these are easiest when you don't make a list, as you read a book you stick it in the challenge. I learned this last year when I did a year challenge of 52 books and I tried to preplan the books I read, but my reading choices are too spontaneous for that.


message 22: by [deleted user] (new)

Diane, I usually read two or three books at a time so I don't think I will have any trouble reading these books and doing the re-read. In fact I just changed one of my books because I read it too soon. I love to read and it keeps my mind busy. At my age that is a big plus. hehe.

Dee (austhokie) | 1124 comments guys as a reminder, when you are coming up with your book titles, the title needs to make sense, if you were to put it in the sentence, A Ministers cat is a XXX cat - so a name doesn't really work

Gwennie (blessedwannab) | 3151 comments Why in the heck are my books not lining up right but others are?


message 37: by Leea, Escape Artist (new)

Leea | 1239 comments You mean the covers? It's some kind of clinch because they've been doing that for awhile.

I really need to put the books i've read up on the challenge... Yikes!


message 38: by Lisa (new)

Lisa | 345 comments Did GR do something to make the bookcovers line up weird, taking up all that space? Because they've been like that for awhile now. Except, Barbara's is working right...hmmm, what did she do to fix it?


message 39: by Leea, Escape Artist (new)

Leea | 1239 comments Maybe she can share her secret. It's been like that for a few weeks and I cant figure out why they would do them that way.


message 40: by Gwennie, biblioholic (new)

Gwennie (blessedwannab) | 3151 comments That's what made me question it, lol. It looks like some people's are working and I'm not able to figure out why.


message 41: by Gwennie, biblioholic (new)

Gwennie (blessedwannab) | 3151 comments Is anyone still updating this? I'm at 20, only 6 books to go until I'm done...


message 42: by Leea, Escape Artist (new)

Leea | 1239 comments I forgot but I need to update mine... Thanks for the reminder.


message 43: by Gwennie, biblioholic (new)

Gwennie (blessedwannab) | 3151 comments LOL, I just remembered and updated mine too, haha.


 Northern Light (norrthernlight) | 219 comments I'm updating mine as I go. It's fun as I'm choosing books that I might not otherwise so that the titles fit.


message 45: by Gwennie, biblioholic (new)

Gwennie (blessedwannab) | 3151 comments I'm struggling with X, z and Q. Even books with those letters in the title are rare.


message 46: by Leea, Escape Artist (new)

Leea | 1239 comments I just updated mine, 22/26... woot woot!!


message 47: by Leea, Escape Artist (new)

Leea | 1239 comments Wendy we need to buddy read some books with Q, J, Z, & V in the title. lol!! Do any of the Troubleshooter books have those letters... *runs off to check*


message 48: by Carol (new)

Carol | 29 comments I've been updating as I go :)
For X, just look for any title that has "Sex" in it. :) Q there are A LOT of "queen" books. I have my own library filled with them if you need some ideas.

I definitely have some catching up to still do before the end of the summer. And Morag, I am definitely also trying to find some other books to fit this. I love it!!


message 49: by Lisa (new)

Lisa | 345 comments I've also been updating mine as I read but I've fallen behind - eek!
