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

It looks like our team read the most books out of everyone. Even though we got second place on points, I'm so proud of all of us! :D

I had a blast and it really helped reignite my reading. And it was fun playing with some former teammates as well. Great job everyone!

Also, some good news…. The contracted Faith Hunter book *IS* adult Angie Baby and EJ!!!!!!!

I’ll sign up for Wheels this time! I can’t recall if I’ve ever participated or not. My brain doesn’t retain things anymore. lol!

I was going to try to squeeze in a 500+ pager as my last book, but Housemaid 2 was calling to me. So I guess that’ll be my last read for the challenge. I’m so sad it’s over 😭

Oh duh! I told myself “one more after the one you’re reading now” and my brain said “nooooo the one you’re reading now can’t be all!”

I promise I’m smart…. Or at least I used to be. Hahahaha

Oh nooooo I forgot I’m on my last allowed book. Dang. I just got to the beach for the next few days and will probably finish a few books. Ugh!

I think the characters in my long book, King Sorrow, will be going on a hike for that task. *fingers crossed*

My favorite is still the tasks! ( the 2nd mini and the countries on mini 3)

Of course, after I've read like 4 books set out in the wilderness recently and finished them all, we get the task "character goes for a hike" LOL

Ooooh, I like Paul Cleave too!

The Haunting of Paynes Hollow is still showing on your currently reading shelf and also isn't on your TT shelf.

BOO!

:)"

Oh sorry, I started drowning in beginning of month invoicing and forgot to do the Goodreads part. Done now!

Melanie, we are grateful for your sacrifice! Thanks for knocking that task out!

Lexi, let me know how Sunbearer Trials is. It's been on my radar a while.

Judith wrote: "Steven,

When you get a chance can you add Hollow to your team shelf?

Thanks!"

Dang, I thought I had. I'm sorry! It's added now!

Also I must say, I love that there is a column on our spreadsheet labeled “used for a cheese.” I don’t know why that tickled me as much as it did, but it really made me grin when I noticed it.

Sigh, just finished my sculptor book. Turns out no one is actually carving anything. Don’t want to spoil but it’s a supernatural book so take from that what you will. Sadly I don’t think it fits for that task. 😭😭😭

*happy dance*

Suh-weeeeet! :D Love when one I have to read anyway (ARCs and due dates and all that) works out for a challenge :)

Okay capitanos, question for you.

One of our tasks says "character who is a sculptor." In the book I'm reading (Hollow), the MC just ended up in a culty-community in the middle of the forest, and some of them carve things to sell in town at the farmer's market, little statues and stuff. Think that's a strong enough tie to "sculptor" to work for the task? Does it have to be a named character? One of them does make carve dolls and stuff as well and he's named.

Lexi, I’d never heard of Finna before but looked it up and it sounds interesting, so added to my TBR.

I’ve started reading Grady Hendrix’s Horrorstör for “meatball” in text!
