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

I finished my green book, but I really need sleep so I will post my completion post at some point tomorrow before the round ends.

I'm working on my green book right now. I will probably finish it tomorrow.

I also found one book that is definitely teal and contemporary and one that is contemporary but may be too blue to be considered teal. I have sooo many contemporary books so as long as time allows it, I can get a couple done next week.

It looks more than 50% green to me.

I found one, it's only 190 pages but I should be able to finish it in time. It is a very green cover.

I was going to read one, but I've been ill with a cold this week and I just dont know where the time has gone. I can try and find a shortish one to get done but I am working tonight and tomorrow and then my work is having a Christmas meal on Sunday. Between work and sleep I'm not sure how much reading I'm going to get done especially as this illness has completely wiped me out

I will try and play around with what's left in a little bit. I was asked if I could work this evening, but haven't had it confirmed. If I am, I'll be working when the challenge ends, but when I get home I'll assign meals unless one of you get there first.

I still think we did very well with just the 4 of us so I am proud of us no matter where we end up on the scoreboard.

That's fair enough. If I finish the two books I'm currently reading today, then I might be able to get a short audiobook done tomorrow.

I found a book that covers a couple of the letters we needed to finish words. We still need an E and an I to finish two more meals.

Also, I have a couple of green covered book to read, but they are longer books. I can definitely get one done. I'll try and find a book or two for tag points as well.

I just started a U. It's a fairly short book, but long enough to count. I'll have it done asap. I have the day off so I have time to read today.

I should be able to finish a least two more this round. But if I finish them before Monday, I wont have time before then to log them

I'm trying to get as much read as I can before the end. I will definitely finish 3 more (two are already on the spreadsheet) and maybe one or two after that as well.
I just started a book called Not Quite Nice which has recipes at the end of every chapter so is giving me lots of options. The word Vinegar was just used so I'll be able to finish the fish and chips that was missing a vinegar the last time I checked. Salt and Pepper have been mentioned a few times too which are always useful.

I'm going to be busy this weekend, but I should have time on Monday to work on using any words/letters we still have to use.

I'm not sure about the rest of you, but I've been feeling a bit burnt out so I haven't read as much as I would have liked. I'm trying to give a final push for these last few days.

I hope you are all well and have a good weekend.
