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

Boo hoo! I put off reading all this great sci fi I’m eager anticipation of this month. I had big plans to curl up in the shade & under umbrellas! Then, kerplewie! My summer blew up. So I’ll be sneaking some sci fi into the remaining months... just to redress the deficit. ;-)

You’re welcome. Good Luck!

Hmmm. I’m not sure how to help you but I found this link:

Hope it helps. :)

It’s so satisfying to get that last book nailed down!

Are you saving the changes? Depending on the way you are accessing the GR site, you may have to actually click “save” to make the changes you wish.

Nice going, Rosemarie!

Lol. Yep. I get so much reading done when the weather keeps me inside. ☀️🌧❄️

Discovered Bingo!

I’ve finished listening to The Vanishing Stair, which ends on a cliffhanger. Ugh! I hate to wait!

Also, Hatchet which the 5th grade added to their curriculum this year. Great adventure story! I’ll bet they’re just loving it!

Bingo Queen!

Woot woot! Nice job!

Do you have the creeps after reading all those villainous deeds?

This is such a fun genre. I especially enjoyed the Harry Dresden series, which I will continue to read and highly recommend.

Wow! You are a reading machine!!!

I finished Truly Devious, the first in a series (trilogy?) that seems like it will be quite good. The first set a promising stage.

Nice work! Especially since those look like some long & chewy titles.

Lol. I love big books, I cannot lie! But, yeah, you need a break from even the best of them.

Love the new profile pic, Rosemarie! Grand-babies?

I’m having such a hard time choosing what to read for this!! Too many possibilities!!

I started with The Coldest Girl in Coldtown from my library website. It was an interesting take on the vampire story, just bordering on apocalypse, with digital voyeurism and quarantine cities. All the elements made for an interesting read. But not as satisfying as something like The Girl With All the Gifts or a story by Richard Matheson.

Now I’m looking at my Audible library. Do I really need look elsewhere??? So many unread titles!!! So now I’m thinking that I’ll alternate between the two.... because I’m greedy. And possibly crazy. I should really be finishing one of the massive books I started in June. Better Question: Do I really need to be stressing this?? Yep, definitely crazy! 😝

Loved Good Omens! It has a special place in my heart.

Also, American Gods. And I read the next one which I think is called Anansi Boys. Also good. It’s good to have a bit of Norse mythology in your head. It makes the story make more sense, I think.
