Winter is a 4 in series. I have some #2 in series but it will take me some time to get through my other books.

My Greece book will be done tonight.

It is done!

I when through the country lists and found books from my TBR on most of them. A lot of them are long books which will be good for points. I won't claim anymore though until I am closer to finishing the ones I already have listed.

My office book will be done tonight!

About 95% of them are now books I own electronically somehow so at least they aren't taking up physical space! And a good chunk are books I got for free over the years so I expect many will be DNF'd, but it just takes a while to sift through them.

Next year for sure I will get under 1000 and keep it that way! (hopefully 😂)

I did that one year. For a year or two, my TBR actually succeeded in going down and I think it was around 600 or 700 at one point, but then I found some physical books I hadn't added, and then I found out my local library had apps for books and then Audible plus happened... And now I'm struggling to get my TBR back under 1,000 and have been for at least a year or two.

I think I've been a good girl this year and haven't added too many to my TBR, but I'll find out for sure when this thread for next year comes out and I calculate how many books I added this year.

My Turkey book is done! I should now get the office one done tomorrow.

The Turkey one is in progress! As much as I would love to get it done today, I think I have too much left and not enough attention span. Definitely tomorrow though! I should be able to get the office one done within a day after that!

I have a #4 in series lined up and I have a couple of #2 in series I want to read soon as well. I could follow one of the #2 with the next for a #3, but they are series with longer books so would take me some time to finish but could get them done this round.

I was the one who found a Hawaii book, but it will take me at least another day to even start it as I'm still working on my Turkey book. So if you get yours done first, Cat, go ahead! I can always read mine for the next set.

I will be working on getting my Turkey book done next, but I still have at least 10 hours of it left so it will probably take me at least two days to get through it all.

I have also found a Hawaii book from the list that I could read after if someone doesn't beat me to it.

I found a book called Assassins so I'm going to get that read now for G50 repeat set of at least two letters.

Depending how long it takes me, I might try and get The Fine Print done this round, but it might be too long so I might squeeze a shorter book in to get me up to my limit and then spend whatever time is left this round getting ahead with books I have planned for round 3 as there are some longer books there.

That's crazy!

It can't have been two years!?!

I'm reading a lot of random stuff thanks to Wheel so hopefully I'll be able to help with some of these new monster! Mostly unintentionally probably :p

Best of luck with the birth! I hope everything goes great!

I've finished my book! I've updated the spreadsheet but I don't have time to transfer to the official one right now!

Pretty much! But according to my boyfriend, that's how it usually sounds when I listen to audiobooks!

I'm listening as fast as I can! :P

I've now started my brown book. It says I will be done in 3h 10min (audio) which will tie in nicely for when my boyfriend finishes work.

I am close to finishing Red Rising for the DNF task so that will be done later today.

Then I'll start the Brown cover book and will try and get that done in the next 24 hours, but if not definitely before the round ends.

Ideally, I would like to get The Fine Print read (for office tag task) this round as well and The Historian (Turkey task) but that one may be too long to squeeze in before the round ends. I might read a couple of shorter books instead to get me to my cap and if I do, I'll try and find ones that are officey.
