Halloween Bingo 2020: September 7 update

Calls made so far that are on my card:

  

I’ve finished Agatha Christie’s  The Thirteen Problems going for the 13 square – my first sticker!  I’ve been on a re-reading kick of an old series which has put me behind on planned Halloween reads.  At least one of the re-reads I’ve recently done will qualify for Genre: Mystery though, so it’s not a total failure.  I’ll update that when I’ve figured out which one I’ll use.  I’ll also likely use another for the Raven/Free Space.

If I read a square that hasn’t been called yet, a ghost of stickers-yet-to-come will appear; once the square has been called, the sticker will become fully corporeal.  (Alas, this only works in regular browsers, but I’m in too deep to try to do something different now.)  As the squares get ticked off, a fully formed image will appear.  Previously, I posted the finished image, but this year I’m going to leave it a mystery.

Below is the table that will summarise the books I’ve read for each square, and note if I took advantage of one of the Spell Pack cards, and which one.  If all goes well, Book Titles will link to my review of the book here.
