Zaz’s comments from the 2015 Reading Challenge [Closed] group.

It's my choice for this week too. I haven't started it yet but will stop by as soon as I'm reading it :)

I'm the only one who haven't started the 2016 plan? I feel so lonely :p
In the lists, there are already many books easy to discuss, so I'm looking forward to next year!

Some suggestions were made several times and never ended in the most voted so it will be nice for those who are very interested in them.
I can already see how difficult it will be to choose the one I prefer :D

As the poll didn't show a very strong preference between moving and staying (only 15 votes are different) and as it's easier for the mods to organize in a new group, we'll move for 2016. It will be easier too for those who will finish the challenge in December, so we won't have 2015 and 2016 discussions mixed up on January.

I hope it will be ok for those who preferred to stay here (it's a little complicated for us to organize when the creator is not there and as the new group is created by a team, it will be easier to make changes and take decisions).

Sophie, I think we can just list the suggestions and members will choose the topic they are interested in for this week when they make their plan. No need to vote.

End of the poll, the 2016 group has a name!
The winner is Around the year in 52 books :)

Another idea: we could keep 51 weeks from the polls (with this poll and the next, the count will be at 51 if we don't have 5 winners) and use "a suggestion that didn't make the list" for the 52th week.

I found the concept really interesting, but it's a big book so I didn't decide to buy/read it. I'm looking forward to your opinion :)

As it's a love or hate book, I'm really curious to see what you'll think of it :)

Ok, thanks! For the 1st, I found the beginning fast paced, so I suppose speeding the listening adds a big sense of urgency during the action scenes. Not bad for this kind of dystopia.

You're doing well!
How was the 2nd Maze Runner? I didn't really like the 1st but I'm curious about how the story is evolving in the sequel.

Good batch, I'm very interested in 8 suggestions.

Jody, if you eat your own eyeballs, it will be impossible to see the glitters on the vampires, your life will be in danger :p

Manda, you're speaking of the Goodreads Choice Awards or there is another best of? :)

You can use The Tales of Beedle the Bard for Week 41 (a book with magic) :)

"He decided to go to high school, opened the door and flared up". End of the book :p

Marta > we already have the children classic. If I remember well, the science, sport and the self improvement books were proposed in previous polls but didn't make it (of course, it's ok to add again something in the batch).
I like your last proposition. You can propose one of your ideas in the next suggestion topic :)

NEVER :p

Hazel had a point of view really focused on the medical side of the illness. I find difficult to be in the feelings when you have a description about vomit :p
In other books on the subject I read, characters were totally focused on the possible loss or how it was difficult to see the person they loved ill (they were frightened or very attentive or did like nothing was happening). Hazel was more making a list of what changed, which is probably the right perspective as she was ill too (and focused on what could happen to her).

Ah, 2 of my top4 and 2 of the "no thank you" list. Not bad!
I can't say it as loudly as I want but YEEEES A BEAUTIFUL COVER!!! I'm looking forward to discover new beauties :D

No idea for the major world event. I'll probably pick something about US history except if it's possible to choose a major world event in "the future" (zombies and climate apocalypse happen a lot in the future :p).
