Lexi’s Comments (group member since Jul 27, 2016)

Lexi’s comments from the Nothing But Reading Challenges group.

No rush, I am mostly doing audios these days and it is an ebook.

Tricia, I have a back up X book that I just got out of the library in case you don't feel like reading The Sunbearer Trials.

All yours then. I will go find something that is long with an O then.

Rebecca, in good timing, we got Tower Teams 6: Quidditch next. In order to finish more quickly, do you have an order you are reading them in? I can grab some as well.

Also, the backroom BOM for July is Big Gay Wedding. It is not erotica if people want to join who may not like the former backroom BOMs. You still need to be over 18 to join the group for backroom books.

Two new Sets of Tasks and we can also used banked books for July (if they are under 400 pages preferably)

Tower Teams 8: Discworld Tasks
Read a book featuring a witch or wizard
Read a book with MPG Crime
Read a book with the letters MOIST in the title
Read a book featuring DEATH or the Grim Reaper or equivalent

Tower Teams 3: Find the Elf
Read 4 books with a direction word in the title (e.g up / down / east)
The words can be repeated

Note: Directional prepositions are allowed if refering to an actual place, such as The Clue in the Jewel Box. When in doubt, feel free to ask.

Great, thank you, Judith

If anyone wants to vote for the July Backroom BOM, there is a runoff between the top three that tied. The poll closes today at midnight PST (in about 10 hours).

Found one that'll work and it short, I should be able to get through it either tonight or tomorrow."

It has a subtitle so it does not end with Burn. I'm sorry

Edited: It might work, let's wait for Judith to have a say

Rebecca wrote: "Can it be Burned? If so I have a book, I’m finally off tomorrow and plan on reading all day"

Sadly, it must end with only BURN or BUR, such as These Witches Don't Burn

Also, since Judith and I are both reading it. If two other people read Carrie Soto Is Back, we can just make an entire ladder out of the one book apparently. (The mods said so).

I checked for my lunch break. There are not so many books that start with Ones or Bones but there seem to be lots of books that end with BURN if anyone has one they want to read

I can do Burn Our Bodies Down, which can be either first in the list or someone needs a book that ends in BURN or BUR

I'll look if I have a book that works with that. Also, the book before it would need to end with DOWN or DOW. You cannot skip a letter.

I have Less Is Lost which would work well in the middle if anyone wants to read a book that starts with Lost, such as Lost Roses, or ends with less, such as Soulless.

Ah, yes, I removed that book, which we will happily fit somewhere else. That task was claimed twice which probably led to all sorts of confusion.

Aoife, in your book do they eat the brownies or just save them? The quote you used does not work for "Read a book where someone eats a sweet food item (cake, pudding, ice-cream)" Thank you

That is my book, and it works. The task is:

Read a book with author initials (all) found in ENDOR.
The author is Nyle DiMarco so N and D are in ENDOR.

The other way would be "the letters ENDOR in author's name (any order)" which would be a different task. Hope that helps since multiple people seem confused.

That's great, thank you

Waiting for next month is very helpful. We are good for June with page count books.
