100% would have forgotten about posting this if @Liseworks hadn't reminded me 😂 As always, anyone can play along - items can be found on the front, back, or spine of the book. Unless a word is in quotation marks (in which case, you need that actual word), items can be a picture of the item or the word (i.e. stripes on the cover or the word stripes). You can use this board just this month, or keep going until you clear it. One book can clear ⬇

TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) multiple squares.

TheAromaofBooks @LiseWorks - Me too!!! I'm glad you're enjoying them!!! 3d
Deblovestoread Thanks! 💚🍀💚 3d
BarbaraBB I was about to ask you too! Thanks @TheAromaofBooks and @LiseWorks 💕 3d
Julies_Bookshelf_Adventures Yay! I‘ve been loving getting these bingos! 3d
Faranae Hopefully next month will be a better reading month. My rule at the moment is new reads can count for any bingo board already “unlocked“, but past reads don't count for newly unlocked boards (so books I read in January only go on the January board, but February gets to fill January and February). 3d
julieclair I have been playing all 12 boards at the same time. My goal is a 100% board blackout by the end of December! 3d

This was a fun collection of bits and bobs. I found a bunch of neat spells that of COURSE my current character (a Cleric) can‘t actually use 😂 Also liked Xanathar‘s asides and the disclaimer on the copyright page.

It‘s neat to read this now that I have the 2024 ruleset to see what made it into the new rules. The chapter on « group patrons » was cool too for presenting ways to bring the party together rather than just meeting in a tavern ?

I'm going outside the box for one of my reading challenge prompts this year. I'm working through a book of logic puzzles. I'm still reading, but I'm also checking for comprehension. I couldn't bring myself to write in the book in case I pass it along when I'm done, so I'm using one of my MANY little notebooks to good use. Who's doing something similar?

Which tag is everyone using? 😁

Librarybelle I‘m using #52BookClub25 🤷🏻‍♀️ 1mo
InkedBookworm13 I have volume 1 of that book, and it's pretty fun. Good luck with your puzzles. 😀 1mo
mhillis That‘s so fun!! 1mo

AnneCecilie I bought the first volume in this series and couldn‘t get past the first puzzle. Am I supposed to look at them as a sudoko puzzle? 1mo
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick @Librarybelle Thanks! Perhaps I'll join you on that hashtag. Now, if only I could get my butt in gear to actually review the few I've read.... 1mo
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick @InkedBookworm13 I had every intention of picking up Volume 1, but it was out of stock at the local bookstores I was visiting, so I figured Volume 2 would be a fine place to start. Good luck with your puzzles, too! 1mo
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick @mhillis It had been so far! A little break from just straight reading. 1mo
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick @AnneCecilie In a way, yes. You'll need to use the descriptions and clues to determine which person had which object and where they had it. For the beginner puzzles, each 9 square box should have one checkmark indicating yes in each row & column. Some clues will eliminate a pairing, so you can use an X. Then, you use your deduction skills. I learned these as a kid, so I didn't need to look at the instructions, but they seem OK. 1mo
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick @AnneCecilie If Ms X has the necklace, I'd ✅️ her box, then ❎️ out the other two suspects for the necklace. Other clues may eliminate an option, so you have to infer based on the other info provided. If you still have trouble, perhaps I can scan one of mine & email or arrange a Teams meeting to discuss it with you. The larger ones may prove more troublesome, but the beginner ones should be easier to catch into one you pick up how to do them. 1mo

Here is February's #ISpyBingo board!! A reminder that you can play these however you like, but I encourage covering multiple prompts with one book if you can!!

BarbaraBB Thanks! I have matches all my unread books to a 2025 prompt in Storygraph but don‘t have read all the books I could match to a January prompt! 1mo
Faranae Goodness, I've been forgetting to add books to my challenges, this and even *my own* haha. Grabbing the February board is a good reminder, thank you! 1mo
Deblovestoread Yay! 🩷❤️🩷 1mo

Picked up a book way way out of my comfort zone and domain, so I am definitely not the correct person to be critical of this read!

I‘ve laughed so many times already and I‘m only 18% into it.

RamsFan1963 I read this years ago, but I still remember the part about putting ferrets down your pants as a competition lol 2mo
BoldCityBooks @RamsFan1963 I have laughed so hard at this stupid book. The Bull Poker chapter had a coworker and me in tears today. 2mo
