Hooked on Books discussion

@Christine- I actually did find a book on my Kindle that will count for W as well so if you want to cover O & N that’ll work. I could probably scrounge an O book or two so you just let me know which letter combo easiest for you.

@Shaw - I have an O and an N so that division of letters works for me.

Excellent!

My C will be finished tomorrow!

I’ve got my L book finished and so will finish my W in the next couple of days.

I finished both of my books. It looks like out spellout is complete. We Should be able to move on to the second part of the challenge.

Yay! I’ll start my Maine book soon and narrow down a SPIDER one.

@donna - There doesn't seem to be an option for Pennywise Leg 2 in the dropdown box. Of it could totally be operator error on my part :) Thanks.

Reading - still looking for the page count one though!

The 27 intact is tricky for me cuz I keep finding 28 instead. But thankfully I have quite a few on my TBR with 25.

I found my 25 in page count. I'll have it finished tonight and I've started my spider book.

Excellent! I should have my SPIDER book finished tomorrow morning or evening.

I’m all finished with my books. I do have a anothe shapeshifter or Maine or 25 book if anyone needs any assistance.

Nicely done Shaw! I only have my shapeshifter book left. How are you doing Carrie?

Hi guys - still reading away.

Shaw - if you could help with the 25 book that would be great. The book I thought would work was 326 pages... Ugh

That’s the worst! I’ve got it no worries.

I’m gonna finish up my current audiobook cuz I’m completely enamored of this series and I must finish it! Then I’ll start my 25 count audiobook so I should finish by Thursday.

I will have my shapeshifter book done by then as well.

Have you guys read my post in the Q&A?

I will need this answer soon.

I vote that we keep playing as I would really like to finish more clowns.

I would also like to keep playing!

@Carrie - how do you feel about it? it would be awesome if you wanted to stay, but absolutely OK if you’d like to move on. No pressure at all!

Also, my Shapeshifter book is going to be done this afternoon. Thanksgiving got in the way.

That’s understandable. I finished mine Thursday morning although I mostly did just work for Thanksgiving.

I finished my book. Adding it now.

I would love to keep playing. I will have my book for Maine done tonight. Got a bit behind from Thanksgiving!

And Shaw, if you want to use your shapeshifter book so we can get a new monster, I'd be okay with that.

If not, I'll find something tonight.

Also, I added the "notify me when people comment" for this thread and I swear I am not seeing them for some reason!

I can get it- the book I had in mind for shapeshifter also covers I a task for another challenge so it’s all good.

And I just posted that we will continue to play with all three of us.

Thanks so much Shaw!

Maine book posted on SS.

No worries- just posted our Pennywise completion post and picked The Heads as our next clown.

The Heads

The Heads are a group of clowns that kidnap a group of people to play a game with them within a haunted house. They are given 12 hours to survive while the clowns try to kill them. The clowns are named Doom-Head, Psycho-Head, Schizo-Head, Death-Head, Sex-Head and Sick-Head.
Sick-Head is a midget that looks like a Hispanic Hitler complete with swastika. Psycho-head and Schizo-Head are chainsaw-wielding brothers. Death & Sex have those words actually written on their chests and are reminiscent of a BDSM duo. Doom-Head is the creepiest of the bunch.

Your team has been assigned Doom-head
Spell out your assigned head.
D
O
O
M
H
E
A
D

The twist for this task is if you complete the spell out in 12 hours or less, your team will receive a bonus of 50 points.

I have a couple of books planned for D and one for M.

I just started an M book. I’ll look and see what else I have.

K- mine can count for an A too then.

Sounds good. Thanks 😊

I entered an E and an O. I am looking for another O or an H

I do have an O that I was planning on so I could cover that if it is easier. I am currently reading a D book but if you want to cover the second D or the A instead I can probably find an H. Whichever is easier.

I have a D ready to go. I can enter it when I am back on tomorrow. I think I may have an H as well if we need one.

Ok- I'll go with my O book and then the A book. I do have a couple of books that will count for an H so I can cover it or we can just see which one gets to it sooner.

I'll work on the A but if someone gets it finished first, that works!

I finished my D book and unexpectedly went with a book that works for H. I needed a castle in it so I’ll cover that and then O.

I finished my O book and should have an A book done by tomorrow, unless someone beats me to it.

Christine wrote: "I finished my O book and should have an A book done by tomorrow, unless someone beats me to it."

I certainly will not be finishing an A book by that time so that would be great.

I did finish a D book the other day so I could include that if needed. But if someone else is reading one that’s fine too.

The last book needed is a D. If you want to use that one, we would be finished!

Ok- added and posted and next clown is Captain Spaulding

Thanks Shaw!

Captain Spaulding

Captain Spaulding earned the nickname "Cutter" for stabbing a man to death. He is the patriarch of the Firefly family but keeps this secret so he can send victims to his family. He runs a gas station in Texas. His biggest sales are his fried chicken and his roadside haunted house attraction known as "Captain Spaulding's Museum of Monsters and Madmen". The museum has many strange exhibits and oddities including the famous Murder Ride. A few incidents happened here at Captain Spaulding's. An attempted robbery occurred at the location but both robbers were killed in the act. Two young couples disappeared after a visit to the museum as well.

Complete the following tasks
Arm 1: Read a chain of 3 books with a father
Arm 2: Read a chain of 3 books tagged family
Leg 1: Read a chain of 3 books with a disappearance in the story
Leg 2: Read a chain of 3 books with a haunted house

I’ve got a book for haunted house and disappearance and I’ll look for ones for father and family.
