Elinor’s Comments (group member since Apr 06, 2022)

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

I’m still on track for Pachinko BUT if someone else finishes a 500+ page, I can put it on hold for July - those 500+ books are tough as it is, never mind with the Wheel Mini prompts added to the mix!

Okay think I’ve got it. Wow. This is certainly going to mix things up quite a bit!

Let’s do it! 🙂

Woah. I’m a bit lost. Checking out the main NBRC TTX thread to catch up with you guys!

We’re all really fighting for this one! 🙂

Lol Suzanne - can’t wait. Hope we’ll manage!

Vi, interesting about the article - so probs too many requests causing the trouble. Thanks for sharing.

Yup. Defo sth up with GR. Reloading ends up giving a response. Dunno, kind of behaviour you get when one (or several) servers down or under heavy load? Not always simple to fix on public site but… would be interesting (for me) to know what’s up. x

Thank you so much 🙂.

I would like to use an extra credit token with the following:

Yay. Thanks for the update Suzanne! We are doing so well! 🙂

I haven’t read as much as I expected this week-end but still on track at the moment with my 500+.

Duly noted about TT being higher priority than RT, makes sense - thank you for clarifying.

Can’t wait to read Carrie Soto - I enjoy tennis! Wimbledon please 🍓😋💪.

Yay Nanci! And Go Lisa! :)
Can’t believe how close we are to finishing all the Chipmunks! Have checked my shelves and don’t think I have anything that would fit for the remaining prompts - Lobster made me think of The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion.

I’m trying to get one 500-599 book in before end of June. Enjoying Pachinko, but I’ve not had much time this week-end, so making slow progress. I think we may be one short even if we finish all the ones we’re currently reading?

Welcome back Nanci! Hope you had a great time :).

I’m worried about my expectations Vi tbh - they’re sky high on that one.

Suzanne, Kirsten, you’re right: high school teacher. Silly me. And I was sure SK hade been a professor too! But nope. Honestly my brain sometimes…

BOM participation Tracking (hope I'm not too late for this):

Day 1
Day 2
DQs for Day 3
Day 4

I've volunteerd for DQs for Carrie Soto is back beginning July 2.

Would love to be backup for Fourth Wing but daren't be the sole candidate as afraid I may not like the book if that makes any sense. Is anyone else planning on volunteering for DQs for the July BOMs?

x

I agree with Vi, I thought we had so many 11.22.63s going that we might have a spare.

Yey can't believe how fast we're going through these - way to go!!

(That "storm" prompt rings a bell too Kirsten, but not sure anymore...)

Could we use one of our 11.22.63s for book featuring a professor (chipmunk 128)?
