I think as long as it is there when we go to verify it for posting is good. I would say the "when" is up to you.

I am starting with The Forsaken Inn an old book and Cell by Stephen King. I am going to try and read all of your old books for those points.

35559 I added a couple of books to the sheet, but I see we need some O's. I have a couple of O books that I can add later today or tomorrow.

35559 Welcome M!

For a Cozy mystery I would recommend Still Life Still Life (Chief Inspector Armand Gamache, #1) by Louise Penny by Louise Penny.

I read it for a mystery challenge where we had a pick a series as a team and read for that series. It was labeled as a "cozy mystery" and I thought I wouldn't enjoy it (no idea why...). I loved the series. I've read all 16 books and am waiting for #17 :)

35559 I think I can answer all those questions...jump in co-captains if I misspeak :)

1 ~ You don't need to announce your book. If you have the info and want to add it to the sheet, great. If not, that is okay as well.

2 ~ There is a column on the spreadsheet that is named "Other Applicable Reasons", and you can list all the letters your book works for in that column. The spreadsheet we are using is a planning sheet, so we will be able to move books around as needed. We are going to spell our word as many times as possible and we can build out of order. The more info you put in that "Other Applicable Reasons" column, the better.

3 ~ Yes! We could all read the same book and use it for a different letter.

Did that all make sense? I think I answered your question #2. If I completely missed the point, let me know.

35559 Hello! I'm Christine and I'm from Minnesota and I manage a sports bar and restaurant, so I am online at all sorts of weird hours. I read a lot of true crime, mysteries, thrillers, survival memoires etc. I actually read most genres, but I don't really care for romance. However, I will read whatever is needed for a challenge.

I have 4 dogs and spend a lot of my time chasing them around :)

35559 Hello, if there is a Mod around to allow me into Team Clean Pet Cage for a moment, that would be appreciated. I looked for a captain's chat but couldn't find the link. I'm likely looking right at it, but am a bit distracted by Team DIY Disasters up above.
