Aw, Minttu, I believe this is your first shot in this battle. A good effort but I think maybe your mentor should've told you to watch where you're holding the torch - you've singed your eyebrows! Take a breather in the recovery tent...

Please do NOT report any other reads until you have completed your recovery task & let me know when you have completed your recovery task in this thread.

Your recovery task is Famous Fortress #2 - Alamut - Iran

The number triggered by Minttu was 8,778.

The page count has to be unique (different each time), Lynn. You've already had a 320 pages book (Comfort Me with Apples: More Adventures at the Table) so you can't claim another 320 pages... 321, yes. 319, yes. But not 320 ever again against this Tower. I hope that makes sense.

You could use it for the Shelves Tower. Maybe 'paperback' (which you've reserved) or 'library-books'?

Ha. Just my rotten luck :D Keep fighting you guys, while I go and apply Hello Kitty band-aids where my poor eyebrows used to be.

Minttu (menthae) | 36 comments Hello Kitty is my secret weapon against the enemy! Daughter refuses to use the ordinary bandaids, so we have a nice collection of Tinkerbells, Moomins and Hello Kitties. I keep buying them whenever I see a package. I am well prepared for the battle. I shall never run out of silly bandaids.

Yikes, Darci! What lot of bad luck?!?! You should got get some good luck charms! On the other hand, it looks like Dee is the lucky one to have missed the rain of arrows by a centimetre! Should've stuck closer to her! Thankfully, she came to rescue you with a shield for cover... Have a bit of a breather in the recovery tent.

I really did not like The Enemy, and wouldn't have finished it if it hadn't been the choice of my book club. So I'm hurling it with all the strength I have. Let's see if it can take down 440.

Did you enjoy this book, Miureann? Interesting perspective, wasn't it?

D.G. | 1370 comments As I'm still recuperating for the piranha attack, I'm somewhat leery of continuing my destruction efforts on the shelves tower so I'll shoot right behind Muireann. Hopefully that'll afford me some protection!
