Sorry it went under a bit in the message because of the title, it was actually It. I was so drained after finishing it though, that I needed to listen to a children's audiobook and read some manga to recover lol. Not my kind of book 🙈

❡MaRisa (risamareads) | 691 comments I was spying around a bit, and I looked at Richard's team. If you want to see the most beautiful SS of all ever, you need to check theirs out, I went crazy after seeing that. I also fear Richard's update on the Big Books Challenge xD

An imp is a European mythological being similar to a fairy or demon, frequently described in folklore and superstition. The word may perhaps derive from the term ympe, used to denote a young grafted tree.

Imps in general are susceptible to the effects of Spirit.

1. Read a book with a ghost in the story
2. MC can see and talk to ghosts
3. Title starts with any of the letters from SPIRIT.
4. Read a book where a séance is performed

Books must be read for this Bonus Monster and checked in before continuing with your regular monsters!
You have until Saturday, October 12th 11:59 pm (Your time zone)
Check-in as a group.

Honestly, I didn't like it 😅 Was too much for me... As I wrote I was just drained after finishing it, and not in a good way like "oh this book made me feel so much it's so good".


message 71: by ❡MaRisa (new)

❡MaRisa (risamareads) | 691 comments Damn I was lucky with this bonus monster anyways, I started a book yesterday that fits it perfectly xD I'll probably take around 2 to 3 days to finish it.

Sounds like it might fit a book I wanted to read this month but couldn't fit in a challenge yet The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and Other Ghostly Tales 🤔 I guess the red fits, but the real question is does a pumpkin head count as a hat? 🤣


message 84: by ❡MaRisa (new)

❡MaRisa (risamareads) | 691 comments I'm having a hard time with the Killer Clown challenge though, I picked some big books for the tasks and I've been wanting to read the books more slowly to annotate.


message 85: by CassieCruel (new)

CassieCruel (faith_isola) | 269 comments I think I’ve read a few for the same prompt for my clowns and stuck on two of them

The redcap is a type of malevolent, murderous goblin found in Border folklore. He is said to inhabit ruined castles along the Anglo-Scottish border, especially those that were the scenes of tyranny or wicked deeds and is known for soaking his cap in the blood of his victims. He is also known as Redcomb and Bloody Cap.

Redcaps had a set of superstitions intricately interweaving with one another. In particular, they believed even numbers were unlucky, and thus would only carry odd numbers of coins and formed groups with an odd number of members.

1. Read a book with a number in the title
2. Read a book with a castle on the cover
3. Read a book with a red cover
4. Read a book with a hat/cap on the cover

Books must be read for this Bonus Monster and checked in before continuing with your regular monsters!
