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

This is one I haven't read yet so I'm definitely in!

I just put a request in for 19 different books published this year, including Jane Steele (My library didn't have List Among the Living, yet), so hopefully the other people on the lust are fast readers. :0

August 1- Rolled an 8.
Pink: Category: Published This Year...
I'm not usually a reader of the recently published so I have to do some investigating. Suggestions are welcome.

Hahaha! Whoop Whoop! Great first choice, Verinique! Your work is done here. ;-)

Great! I haven't decided yet what I'm gonna do for this. It may depend on what's available at my library. Plus maybe a few from my kid lit shelf at home.

Great job, Megan!

Good to know. I've been eyeing that one.

Plenty of time to get bugged by a book you can't put down. :P

There's still plenty of time for a beach book.

Finished Who Moved My Blackberry? a while back but forgot to update. Just kinda meh. Maybe it would have been funnier if I worked in a corporation.

Beatrix Potter's birthday was July 28 and Roald Dahl's will be September 13, so let's celebrate by reading a few children's books between their birthdays.

Level 1 - The Nursery - 2 books
Level 2 - First Years - 4 books
Level 3 - Graduates - 8 books

There is no set page limit. It you choose to reminisce with easy reads, then enjoy yourself. Just let us know here what you are reading so we can enjoy the stroll down memory lane.

Finished with Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire!!

Wow! I'm so jealous! I like non-fiction, too, but find it takes me a very long time to read.

I love the idea of manga Shakespeare!!

Great job, Sonia. Exceeding your goal feels so great!!

Good job, Sam and Chase! Glad you stayed awake at finish yours.

I'm working my way through Goblet of Fire, but it's so familiar now that I keep falling asleep. :P

That sounds good. I'm a little daunted by books of a certain era which are considered humorous. I often find the humor to be cruel. It will be great to have someone to bounce ideas around. :D

Gah! I have been reading this as an ebook from my library, but in the most frustrating format. It won't allow me to highlight (which is true of borrowed paper books, but the Kindle-format borrowed books always allow highlighting and I've gotten spoiled). Plus, I cant seem to read it before my loan period ends... Then I have to wait on the list again to take it out. So frustrating!

So I broke down and ordered it for my Kindle.

Now maybe I can actually finish. It's a lovely story and I am totally savoring the writing so it will still take me awhile. But now in a good way.
