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

Well, now I'm kinda regretting it. Breakfast is way too early....

Renee, so much Trollope'!

Half way through Fangirl. Enjoying it far more than I thought I would

Staying up til 1am reading. #bookwormproblems

I'm changing the banner now that the Readathon is over.

Any suggestions for the text/colour? :)

76. Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life by Anne Lamott
77. A Streetcar Named Desire by Tennessee Williams (reread)
78. Manhattan Transfer by John Dos Passos
79. The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger

It's been a mad set of reading recently! Loving it!

I know the feeling, Kassandra. Ordered The Madness Vase yesterday, a collection of poems by one of my favourite poets, Andrea Gibson. Thought I deserved a reward for writing all my essays. Still have to edit them, edit them some more, and hand them in, but they're written!

Should be here in the next few days, so it'll be a lovely reward for getting my first lot of coursework done.

I really need to remember to keep updating my list!

What did you think of Carmilla, Lucy? :D

I was tempted to read that for this month too, Renee!

Let me know what you think of it :)

Might get round to My Cousin Rachel a bit earlier! :)

Have hardly got any reading done so far this month. Deadlines are next week, so my life has basically been filled with lectures, essay writing and sleep. Hopefully will get all my essays finished this weekend, so I'll have far more time to read! Need to bump up my widget! (I don't dare look at it...)

Started my first Non-Fiction book! Very excited!

I've got Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life.

Think this will fit in with NaNoWriMo and Writing themes?

That's amazing, Chase! Well done!

You'll be able to set up your official 2915 Personal Challenge thread from December onwards.

Good idea planning this early!

That sounds like a fascinating book, Natalie!

In case anyone is interested, BBC news site have got a 'Top 16 Gothic Books' list.

Found it a very interesting read!

So jealous, Renee! I totally need to re-read that series!

(all the Firefly references hell yes)

Ooh, looks like I've started a trend! Isn't the series just wonderful? They do take some liberties, but I think they capture the characters really well. (Especially Carmilla). It is a very cute watch.

10! Still horrendously behind on my widget though!
