Thank goodness you all picked up those V books. I got two hours into the one I was reading and was just totally not feeling it.

I've been procrastinating and going through my shelves to pick out some good ones I want to pick up for Bingo instead.

Thanks Victoria - updating now. After our time is up, I'll use our Milan bonuses if they'll help. My main goal is to use all of our arsenal - and I think we will!!

Wow you guys are fantastic!

I've been procrastinating too! I have been away with no access to my lists and spreadsheets so I've been updating and futzing around since I finished my last book :-) I'm still trying to finish SRC too and I had to check what I still need for that.

book:
Strange Bedpersons

Bingo squares: Title "Strange", takes place on Earth,

Updated - got my practice in :)

I finished A Single Man but I am not sure what it works for? 192 pages. Finished 8/20/16

It will totally work for goggles! Goggles are something people generally wear when in the ocean, and the cover has someone in the ocean. I was worried about that square tbh, and you've read the 3rd book this game that matches it lol.

Can you add your read date for the book? It has the added date, but not the read date, so our spreadsheet isn't picking it up.

thanks!

Book: Fortune's Pawn

Bingo Squares: First in series, takes place in space--so would have a view of the whole Earth. Don't know that it works for anything else. :(
