I think that was me - I was inputting Matilda by Roald Dahl as that was what my daughter and I were going to listen to next but she decided on something else (of course too short to include - Pippi Longstocking) so I removed it anyway. :) No worries!

I went ahead and added several books to the spreadsheet since I am heading out of town for three weeks this Saturday. I will have internet access and time but it's just harder to work from my phone than it is on the computer to do things like add links.

One of the books is a potential for Quidditch so I didn't include any characters, etc for the spells ( ).

But the rest I included characters, etc for spells. I will update as I finish them. This first week I'm the house mom for a youth trip to work in the mountains of West Virginia so lots of time to sit and read. Looking forward to the long drive and HP audio books because I can't listen to the 6 teens in my car all day! :)

Arg! I had 4 hours left on the audio for A Constellation of Vital Phenomena and planned to finish it today and I somehow hit the button to return my copy to the library. Now there's a hold on it, I'm so bummed! I nabbed the ebook but it'll take me longer to finish and have that done for Astronomy. Working on it though!

The world building is awesome! The fantasy is inspired by Middle Eastern culture, so we have djinns and other magical beings from that mythology.

On another note ... I'm currently reading Three Day Road, and the main character is Xavier --- yes, a character name starting with X! I'm only on page 55 so far but should finish sometime next week.

It’s so fun when you find an anomaly!

sorry that I haven't been around. I have been reading but my son is sicker than we thought and has been keeping us busy :). Then the others also got ill, so it's been a bit busy.
I am getting through the posts and hope to be back on board from now.

Hi

thanks

Shan--Have captains been putting these on the Team Planning sheet for you. If you've been doing it...you don't have to list all this if it's going on the sheet...just clarify and we'll get you posted if needed.

Thanks,

Completed for Q so far...on SS
Quinn
Posies and Poison...another cozy...not as bad as the other one I read
Twisted Truth...just OK
The Good Widow...I recommend this one
Dating Cupid...horrible!

I have not been updating the spreadsheet, so I am assuming that the captains have been doing it.

It looks like we are getting close...3 books for classes and 25 spells remaining.

To stay competitive, we'll want to continue to read to rack up book points. Read what you love with a little attention to the spells we have remaining...

No problem
Thanks for the update

I plan on reading Silver Linings Playbook soon for that class task because the buddy read starts soon. But I will in no way be offended if another book gets used for that task if one happens to fit.

What else kills a werewolf?

Is there anything in the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows that could kill a werewolf? Natesha read this book and we haven't put anything with it yet...that could take Mary off the hook for Silver Linings Playbook
