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

@Judy - my next book is 400 pages.

Ready for take over off on my way home from vacation. It was a great trip. Flying from San Francisco to Philadelphia. Yosemite & Sequoia National Parks 🏞️ are amazingly beautiful. Had little to no WiFi or cell service while away. I’ll have some catching up to do when I get home.

Finished Someone Else’s Shoes by Jojo Moyes.

I read that and it shows my name on the spreadsheet"

Oops - sorry about that.

@Anna - can you add Death by Intermission to your TT shelf?

@Jade - can you add Right to your TT shelf?

I don't think everything was cancelled today - only the early flights were cancelled because of severe weather. I'm flying from Philadelphia direct to San Francisco.

My husband and I are now on the same flight though!

Ugh! Our flight today was cancelled, now we don't fly until tomorrow😭 They say because of weather. And they rebooked my husband and I on different flights because we used miles for his. Trying to get that fixed. I'll need to call the hotel and reschedule our rental car. And of course, we lose a day!

I will be on vacation starting tomorrow for a week. I will be at 2 National Parks - Yosemite and Sequoia - with limited cellphone and wifi access. I'll post what I can while away for any books completed but will someone to add to the SS.

and again I don't see how 'turn' would work for this but ok"

Christina, I was thinking about this task as words used in giving directions and "turn" is a word I would use. We can see what Judy thinks.

Christina wrote: "@Bernadette I don't think 'turn' works as a direction - isn't 'turn' usually supposed to be followed by a direction?"

@Christina, I think "turn" is fin. Other words used on teams SS are: back, outside, at, up, down - none of them followed by other words.

Jade, it would be the default number of pages. If you go to show all editions and look at the number pages at the first one listed, then that is the number of pages you will use. Looks like 658 pages here.

I was looking at the books this morning to see if could figure it out. I was looking only at completed books though🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️ - good job. Most of these were on my many lists of possibilities.

We'll use your version - a few more points! Thanks!

This is what I see as the default number of pages when I search for the book - 253 pages

@Erin - did you read the audiobook for The Demonologist? That is the book you have on the SS & your TT shelf, but you didn't use the default page numbers. Just want to confirm.

I’m currently reading by candlelight 🕯️. We lost power about an hour ago. No word yet on when it will be back😳

I thought the 500+ page book came in 2nd but I was mistaken, but the 2nd place book looks awful.

Robin, I did a reread of Gone with the Wind via audiobook and found interesting.

I can get Big Gay Wedding at my library. I hope they don't go with the second one - it's over 500 pages long!
