Renee’s comments from the The Reading Challenge Group group.

Great job, Kay! See you in the Overachiever's Circle. :)

Nice!

I tend to read the way Rosemarie does. Several books at a time, some chunky ones that require more thought and some light. It might take a month or more to wend my way through a chunkster, but there might be several shorter things that I polish off during that time. Personally, I blame my ADD. :P

But everyone finds their own preferred style. I think we try to do so many different kinds of challenges, so that there's something for everyone.

Fabulous! (As always!)

I loved that short story! So funny

Started The Reverse of the Medal today while driving back from my Sunday Breakfast with Dad. Jack and Stephen are one of my dearest summer treats. It's great to be at sea with them again!

This thread will stay open until the end of June, but I'm going to open Summer Bingo for those interested.

Lol. I couldn't stop myself. I finished last night. I'm going to have to be careful of spoilers.

Great job, Ladies!

Ha! At least they didn't go with Goneril. That just sounds like an std.

I loved listening to Cream of the Crop so much that I've started it over again. Nicely steamy, with a full-figured heroine who actually loves her curves. It makes me want to start a blog about books with luscious women. I've dnf some real stinkers filled with so much body-hatred that I couldn't justify continuing. But this one was really well-done; a good blend of naughty and funny. I liked the first of the trio, as well. But I read Nuts in May.

Great! I only read Lear recently. It made me want to smack people.

That looks interesting. The link just doesn't give much background Info... What's it about?

That sounds great. Or you find an Indigo, which is the "I" in ROY G BIV. ( I cut it because it was so hard to find in the original concept of this challenge... Which was color-related titles and much harder than this version.)

You're right. It is just 11. I must have miscounted.

Nice job, Cindy! I love this time when we're all knocking out "Bingos" like dominoes falling.

I finished Belinda by Maria Edgeworth. And read about 12 chapters of The Last Chronicle of Barset.

I lost track of this one for a while, but I've actually finished and am going for another round!
