Trinia’s Comments (group member since Mar 29, 2015)

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

I'm going to listen to The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, it will fulfill :
◈ Visit Pemberley - Read a book where the series and title combined contain all letters in Pemberley.

I've finished Wildalone by Krassi Zourhova.
◈ Play music to send the Three-headed dog to sleep - Read a book where a main character is a musician- Thea is a pianist.
◈ Play in the Hedge - Read a book with a topiary in it. Pg 220 The two had a warm unpretentious home with topiaries in the front...
◈ Escape on a Snowmobile - Read a book that takes place in winter with snow. It is Winter at Princeton.
◈ Rock the Schoolhouse - Read a book with a main character in school. Thea is attending Princeton.

I'll add to the spreadsheet for the Topiary

You can go ahead and read it for a bonus. You have 2 books already towards the main labors. (I love his books!)
I haven't entered any on our main spreadsheet yet, but will make sure to enter the main labors first.
Enjoy!

Added for Color in title.

FYI: Where we put the books on the planning sheet may only be temporary. I believe the goal initially will be to complete Labors, the more labors open, the more bonuses we can open.

When posting the completed books it is helpful to give as much info regarding each task met, then if we change them around, we don't have to hunt each of you down to clarify reasons.
Thank you Polar Bears!

I'm not sure you added it to your Wobble shelf. please add, thanks!

Great Charlie! I'll put it on the tracking spreadsheet. Can you give me some details for Reason of the following:

- Read a book with a headstrong character (character's name)
- Read a book that was originally written in a language other than your own (English?)
- Read a book that's title starts with a T
- Read a book where someone showers (character's name)

I'm still not sure how specific we need to be, but I've noticed other teams are pretty detailed.
Thanks!

Great! which book?

Camilla wrote: "Currently loading my next audiobook from the library, it's . Would it work for "Read a book with a gold object on the cover"?"

definitely a gold item! would also fit - Read a book with a medal or trophy on the cover. (which might be harder)

I've got Colleen Hoover's new book I'm excited to read . Do you think the text is pink??? I think the cover passes for pink???

Gea have you read any of her books? I am not a big fan of traditional romance, but she sets a new level to romance.

I've got one with Pink text I've been wanting to read.

I'm thinking short books will be the way to go to complete main labors? We don't get any points for book length.

Sounds great! Enjoy :)
