... or put differently, MbD got to do the mind-numbing, computer-feeding part -- while still staying on her toes and not accidentally deleting the lists every time they were updated (due to the fact that, misleadingly, there's only a "delete" and not also a "save" button at the bottom of the list editing page) ... which I'm fairly certain I'd have screwed up badly, because what with the staggering amount of book suggestions everybody has come up with (which is of course a good thing!), my brain would have been mush some 2 or 3 lists into the process. -- Whereas I got to revisit everybody's "reading plans" posts and note down books for my own TBR while copying down books for MbD's lists ...

Anyway, thanks to MbD for braving the mountain of data I kept chucking at her -- and for creating, updating and maintaining all those lists in the first place!

Thanks to both of you, for that time as well as effort. It is much appreciated by those of us who haven't yet settled on all our books.
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow would work for In the dark dark woods, right?

Yes it would!
Sweet! Thanks!

I've avoided that delete button (there should be a save button there too dammit!) but I did get one list almost entirely created and then swiped when I meant to scroll, and accidentally taking me 'back' to the previous page, thereby losing everything. Only the once though, thank goodness. :P
Could Doctor Strange work for witches or is it only she-witches?

No a male can be a witch but Strange is a sorcerer/wizard not a witch.

Obsession I would go with a no on The Color of Magic unless you have a description I'm not seeing.

Looks like Barbara Michael's would fit terrifying women.

The Colour of Magic has dragons, a trunk with legs, and a Cthulu-like monster.

So just to clarify, what makes them different? They've both been trained to use spells, and are both considered good magic users. (As opposed to Doctor Doom, who, yeah, uses magic for eeeevil. Well, now good, but for evil for a long time.) So it's not a good/evil distinction, so I'm more confused than ever by what would separate Strange from Wanda. I was under the impression that they, and Doctor Voodoo, were all considered magic users, and while they went under different names (sorcerer, voodoo user, witch), they did the same things.

Even the price that has to be paid for magic seems to be true: Strange always pays a price and so does Wanda, more so now than ever. Also, Strange had a female apprentice whom I'm also assuming would be sorcerer rather than witch. Which confuses me even more.

So... I don't want to sound what's the word? Bitchy. But I am feeling rather dumb right now. Clearly there is a distinction that you're seeing and I'm not, and I don't want to stumble into that later on when I'm finalizing my witch read.

Thanks.
I'm a late comes and first time player...do graphic novels count?

I completed the last bingo with comics, and I plan on reading graphic novels for this round. I've yet to hear they don't count for any of these games.

Monsters: any crytpozoological or mythological creature that isn't a vampire, werewolf, or demon. Or zombie. With the dragons and cthulu monster this should fit.
