Julie | 133 comments Hi all. Not sure if this is how its done, but I have a book that I'm reading for another challenge this week that qualifies for "K".

I guess let's do first come first serve towards the letters, because as soon as we have the letters we can start filling the basket

plus with us being able to use any edition it could make things easy

but yes that's exactly how it works


message 19: by Lisa (new)

Lisa | 15 comments That makes sense to me too. I'm starting with Malice by Keigo Higashino, so it will work for the letter K.

I didn't see that Juie had claimed the letter K before me! Mine might need to be for our second basket, but I'll see if it meets any of the criteria for the eggs too...

Becky Q. (bestiebecky) | 830 comments I'm reading First-Time Caller by B.K. Borison so it can be used for the B in Basket!

Claimed so far:

B - Becky
A -
S -
K - Julie
E -
T -


message 22: by Dede (new)

Dede | 217 comments I can do T


message 23: by Emily (new)

Emily Zimmerman | 7 comments I’m reading The Shinning by Stephen King so I can do S!


message 24: by Emily (new)

Emily Zimmerman | 7 comments The Shining* 🤦🏻‍♀️


message 25: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (bookoutbelow) | 702 comments Sorry friends I thought I checked in!

I just finished an E - Ex With Regrets

I also have another book that would work for T or B if we want to use it, otherwise I can hold it for eggs.

I'll check in the E


message 26: by Becky Q. (new)

Becky Q. (bestiebecky) | 830 comments Claimed so far:

B - Becky
A -
S - Emily
K - Julie
E - Amanda
T - Dede

We just need an A now! :)


message 27: by Grace (new)

Grace Btrs (semi ia - mostly overwhelmed) (gracebtrs) | 3881 comments I'm in the middle of several books and I'm sure at least one would cover A, however, if someone finished before me and they can cover A please go ahead


message 28: by Haley ♡ (new)

Haley ♡ (haleymadd) | 1673 comments I have a book for A I should be finished with today. I did start it before this month so not sure if that makes a difference. (Read most this month)

Got you checked in!


message 30: by Lisa (new)

Lisa | 15 comments I'm almost done with Malice. It can be used for "egg" in text; "hunt" in text; or "april" in text. I'm going to record it for "april" unless someone else wants that one. Just in case I'm recording the data to support the other words in case we need to switch things around (if that's even allowed).

pg 219 "He was just a bad egg."

pg 260 "....going so far as to hunt down the one or two extant photos...."

pg 254 "When April came around and it was time for the new school year to start..."

My next book will be Carl's Doomsday Scenario. It can also be used for "egg" in the text or "hunt" in the text. (It could also be an S for our next basket). I'm going to plan on using it for "egg".

pg 299 "The egg-shaped ball of fire leaped out of my hand...."

pg 35 "....insane tourists can go to hunt crawlers."


message 31: by Grace (new)

Grace Btrs (semi ia - mostly overwhelmed) (gracebtrs) | 3881 comments I was wondering if tasks are repeatable.
Let me ask Alaina


message 32: by Grace (new)

Grace Btrs (semi ia - mostly overwhelmed) (gracebtrs) | 3881 comments Also, I think we need to have the BASKET complete before we start filling it with eggs, so my suggestion Lisa is to use Malice for the A letter if you want


message 33: by Lisa (new)

Lisa | 15 comments The book Malice doesn't work for the letter A, I don't think. If it can't be used for an egg, then we'd have to start a second basket where it would work for the letter K. I can change my post in the thread where we report finishes if necessary.

Dede | 217 comments Where do we post when we finish a book?

Dede | 217 comments Hey! I feel like I have been missing this group.. If I have I'm sorry. Have a bunch of books I can log if they fit!

Welcome to the team Dede. Here's the rules:

1. Spell out BASKET to make a basket.
2. Find eggs after creating the basket with the following categories/tasks.

Color covers: Blue, Green, Red, Orange, Yellow, Purple or Pink.

Patterns on covers: Flowers, Stripes, Swirls, Polka Dots, Waves, Circles or Stars.

Words: Egg, April or Hunt in text (pg/% & quote), Letters EGG in title (in any order), Letters APRIL in series title (in any order), Title ends with a letter in HUNT or Author initials in EASTER.

Dede | 217 comments Sorry, I found it after I sent that message! Thank you!


message 42: by Kim (new)

Kim | 3653 comments I finished a book for A and can post tomorrow if we haven’t yet. I’m on mobile right now so trickier for me to switch between pages. I’ll check in the AM east coast 😊

Emily Zimmerman | 7 comments If anyone has another book for S, feel free do use it. I'm slowly working on The Shining, but it's been a busy week, and I might not have it finished for a few more days. We can always use it for another Basket or I can see if it works for an egg.


message 46: by Julie (new)

Julie | 133 comments I’m finishing a book that fits S by tonight.
It’s a good idea to keep your book for the next basket Emily


message 47: by Grace (new)

Grace Btrs (semi ia - mostly overwhelmed) (gracebtrs) | 3881 comments I finished a book that could work for S. I just need to write the review and I can post.

Grace go for it. I just popped in to say I was caught up in family stuff and haven't quite finished. I can use my book for an egg. 😉

message 50: by Kim (new)

Kim | 3653 comments I posted for an egg but then I was thinking, are we on the next week of trying to spell out BASKET ?
