I finished it. Let me see if I can find another place for it -- just remembered I am using it for no luck -- removed it from the bottome section.

Helke (mogelpackung) | 1389 comments Filled some of Gustaf´s books into the mini challenge including a brown cover. So we will at least get part 1 done. But part 2 is looking better too.

ETA: All of Gustaf´s books from page 18 fitted into the mini challenge.

Helke (mogelpackung) | 1389 comments Janine did you finish your book for task n of the mini challenge? There is a number in the date slot and it counts 10 points for it. Don´t want to delete the number if you read it.


message 908: by Diane (new)

Diane | 957 comments Helke, did you ever find out whether we have to read books for our own team name?


message 909: by Diane (last edited Apr 26, 2023 10:44AM) (new)

Diane | 957 comments I think you could make a case for Cruising, since it takes place mostly on the water for the Octopus, who lives in the Pacific -- time in the water!

Or the Boatbill, as cruises are done on ships or boats.

Diane | 957 comments Tasmanian Devils 'are usually solitary', so perhaps for The Loner??

We could go with a book where someone uses a dildo with a suction cup as octopuses have suction cups too lol.

Janeylou | 1255 comments From rules

....For each team name, you can read two books, choosing two of the following options:

◈ Read a book with the entire name of the animal in title or text.
◈ Read a book with a part of the animal's name in the title. (This obviously doesn't work for all team names.)
◈ Read a book with a cover representing (any of) the animal's colour(s).
◈ Get creative! Find a way to connect your book to the team name / animal in some way.

It doesnt say 2 different tasks so presume we can use the same if we want


message 931: by Janeylou (new)

Janeylou | 1255 comments Ok..ive found out that we cant use 2 'get creative' for the same animal , so some of these are going to have to be moved around


message 932: by Diane (new)

Diane | 957 comments Oh crap, what a pain. Too late for me to look at it tonight. Argh. Sorry about that.

OK, I hope you don't mind but I did a bit of adjusting and moved a couple of books around so that we used a color in the title and not the Get creative. I think they were:
The Druid Stone -- changed it to color
Finding Release -- I moved it from Sea Pen to Pangolan (brown color)

I also moved one of mine, Not in the NFL to the streaked tenrec because it has yellow in it.

I hope that doesn't cause you too much pain Helke, one of those books (Finding Release I believe) you had already marked down as Green -- so posted, but we couldn't keep it there.

Ack, I hope all that makes sense. Going to bed now,


message 935: by Diane (new)

Diane | 957 comments If we use the two leftover from Gustaf -- Apple-y Ever After and His Dad Will Do in those two that Janine has claimed -- 5 and 44, then we can focus on finishing the second part of the Mini challenge.

Helke (mogelpackung) | 1389 comments Sounds good to me. I'll correct the official ss later. Can't do that on my phone.
