AWESOME Cayleigh!! That series is soooooo sooooo good. Glad to get another one hooked on it!! :D
I don't talk to people anymore for them to annoy me. :)The most annoying questions I've ever been asked, were when I was working at the theme parks. The worst being "What time is the 3 o'clock parade?" (REALLY?!?!) and once I was asked "Where are the bathrooms?" and I literally pointed over their shoulder as they were RIGHT behind them. :/
I'd go work for a theme/amusement parks, but somewhere with changing seasons. I loved the FL theme parks, but hated the heat. I'd be thrilled to go work at any park, that has various degees instead of hot, hotter and hottest! :)
Well, on the 27th I was reading
just because I wanted to, but it can fit for Randemonium. Also at the time I was reading
just because, it doesn't fit anything. Both books were 4 star books for me.Now I just started
for the 3rd Randemonium. Listening to that on audio. Haven't quite decided what to read next on Kindle. Thinking it'll be
cuz I wanna read it. :)
Farthest I've been in California (Anaheim & San Diego) from Central Florida. I'd definitely would want to erase The Night Circus so I could experience it for the first time again.
I was called an angel once for a certain reason. It will always be one of the best moments of my life. Can't think of much without being depressing, so I suppose camping? LOL! I'm not much of a sleeping on the ground type person. Now if I at least had an inflatable mattress I'd go. :D
I was thinking of fired up in a good/excited way. Things that get me fired up in that way are video games (lately Overwatch and my HUGE HUGE HUGE desire to get Fortnite ASAP), baseball (Nationals), football (Steelers) and good books. :) I don't know about friends, I don't have a lot anymore. I suppose I'd have to say Angie. :D She gets to go lots of places, both for fun and not, but I definitely love hearing about all her trips, since I don't leave my house. :D
Glad we're all sharing The Martian love. That book was sooooo flipping fantastic!! Glad you loved it Kerri!! :D
YAY!! Welcome to the Pack! Hopefully you'll love it here and get back into some challenges.Y'all give my Kim some love. She's actually a real-life friend of mine (those are rare connections online it seems) though I haven't seen her since I moved. :(
Hope you can find something to sink your teeth into. A lot going on around here, so jump right in, and we'll be giving out more Hogwarts info on Wed!
Ha! Oh I can be sadistic. :D I'll have to work harder at it. hehe!Make a Scene is a little sadistic. Just need to tweak it a bit more and hope to post it this week.
It is, we'll definitely do some things during that one, recommendations, questions and such. :)My 24in48 was pretty slow, I only read for about 13 hours. Not a good effort for me, but at least I read. :)

Hey Danielle! Thanks for the picks.I read A Merciful Truth back in the first week of July and enjoyed it. Gave it 4 stars. I really like Kendra Elliot's books, I find her characters to be likable and the story to be always good. Mercy was a little annoying in this one, she's not my favorite character ever, but the story overall was good. :)
I just read Blood Bound this past week, finished it up on the 20th. Really couldn't get into it at first and had to force myself to get through the first 20% or so, but after that, it really picked up for me and I ended up liking it. Would have given it a 3.5 if I could have, decided to round up on it.
Thanks again for the picks!! :D
Sorry Claire, this one was for July. I'll be opening the one for August today.
Correct, one book each for each letter so 11 for FF on the first task.
