Sherri’s comments from the Around the Year in 52 Books group.

I finished Walden. I hated it. I put it under Avant-Garde an author you have never read before.

I read Walden. It was a terrible read for me so I'm using it everywhere I can.

I finished Less Is Lost. I really liked it. I basically read it in one day. I think I liked it better than Less. I used it for business, a book with someone dressed in business attire on the cover.

My goal is to finish Less is Lost tonight. That works for business attire on the cover. Hopefully I can stay awake long enough to finish.

I think books 500 pages or over are long. I like long books but sometimes I put off reading long books so I can finish more books quickly. Here are the long books I have read this year.
The Winners, 671 pages
...And Ladies of the Club, 1184 pages. This was the third time I read this book.
The Code Breaker: Jennifer Doudna, Gene Editing, and the Future of the Human Race, 552 pages
Demon Copperhead, 550 pages
Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln
916 pages. This was the third time I read this book.

Good Morning, my plan today is to read Less Is Lost. I started it yesterday afternoon & I like it so far. Good luck everyone with your plans today.

What challenges and distractions have you faced this read-a-thon? I was busy & out of town at the beginning so I didn't read much.
What is your favorite book so far? Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln. This is the third time I read it.
How's your team and individual challenges going? Slower than I thought because I decided to just focus on Team of Rivals & that is a long book.
What have you accomplished so far in this read-a-thon? I finished Team of Rivals. Do you see a theme here?
What are your goals for the remainder of the read-a-thon? Finish 2 more books.

I finished Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln I put it on the spreadsheet. I have an errand to run when I come back I'll put it everywhere else. Whoop Whoop.

Good Morning All, Welcome Irene. I hope to finish Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln this morning. I have 5 hours left. Thank You Team Chanel for being patient with me while I listen to this long book. My next read will be Less Is Lost.

I will finish Team of Rivals either late tonight or in the morning. That fits business attire.

Good Afternoon Everyone, I have dedicated myself to listening to Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln. The men on the cover are in business attire for that time period. I have 20 hours left but will keep at it till completed. On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeousis on the back burner for today & tomorrow. We are doing great.

Hi Everyone, would someone please put my audio hours on the spreadsheet? 3.38 hrs. The internet is spotty here so once I get home later I’ll check in. Thank You.

Hi Everyone, would someone please put my numbers on the tracking spreadsheet. I won’t be near my chrome book until tomorrow afternoon. I read 128 pages & listened to 3.17 hr. Thank You.

I read Devotions: The Selected Poems of Mary Oliver. The prompt that didn't make it is a book of poetry or free verse.

Hi Team Chanel, I finished Devotions: The Selected Poems of Mary Oliver. I used it for Formal, Necklace: A book over 400 pages. Sheena, I used the blue for filler because I wasn't sure which filler color I should use. I know multiple colors can cause confusion.

Good Morning Team Chanel, I will finish Devotions: The Selected Poems of Mary Oliver soon. I love this book. I have a library book but I'm putting it on my list of books I want as gifts. This is a list for my husband. Right now it looks like I will put it under Formal, Necklace: A book over 400 pages. My next read is On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous. This should be a quick read. My main distraction today is the Masters. I find myself focused on the leader board & beautiful course. I'll check in once I finish my current read. I forgot to mention I will still listen to Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln

1. What are your goals for the read-a-thon? My main goal is to finish listening to Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln. I have 38 hours left. I also hope to complete 3 other books.
2. Are there any books you're dying to start or finish? Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln
3. Are you participating in the team or individual challenges? Both
4. Where will you be doing most of your reading? Living room sofa.
5. Is there anything that's going to stand in the way of your reading this week? Let us cheer you on! This is a busy week for me. I usually don't have a lot to do but this week I have Easter dinner. I'm visiting my mother that lives 3 hours away. Then just normal stuff.

Good Morning Team Chanel, I have two books in progress & one TBR. After I finish these I will see what is needed. I'm listening to Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln.
It works for pants & ties under business. The only problem is the book is very long. I have 38 hours left. I may not finish this but if I do it will be later in the week. If anyone has books to fill these prompts go ahead. All three of these books have a black,white, & gray only cover. Happy reading everyone.

Hi Everyone, I'm very excited to be on Team Chanel with so many people I know from past read-a-thons. I'll head over to the spreadsheet & plan my reads.
