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

Ok, I actually finished. I liked it a lot. I do agree that some of it was expected but some of it wasn't. I figured out the basics of what happened to Maya earlier but some of the end was a bit strange. I really did like the women. I loved that they showed different view points to traditions. Fun.

Ok, I'm behind you both. May finish tonight, tomorrow more likely. I get what you were saying about Jason now and I'm sad.

Laura, I so want to read your spoilers! I've been busy both at work and home and will only be able to get so far. Did you like it?

I'm about half way through but not quite as far as you, Laura. I'm not sure how far I will get tonight as it will be a bit busy.

I refuse to think badly about Jason. I hope you are wrong, but I am wondering if you grandmother is in the class.

It hasn’t been explained.

I liked the beginning but it was chapter 5 I think that really got me.

I think this will be good for Nikki and I am curious as to what is really going on with Kulwinder. I think I've figured out what she is supposed to believe but I don't think I believe it either.

I understand distraction. Too easy!

I'm glad I'm reading it instead of listening. I am in chapter 6 and I am really enjoying it at this point. Lots of questions and I love the women.

How are you doing? Liking the book?

I'm a bit slow this weekend. So far it is interesting but I'm not that far in. It often takes me a bit to get into a book and I feel like that is happening here. I do think the characters are very interesting.

I have it. Just in time, although it is less than 300 pages so I don't know why you couldn't type it, even without italics.

I will start tonight.

Jenny, you are too funny. I guess I will have to do something to find out why she wanted an arranged marriage.

If it doesn't come in today I'll just buy the audiobook. No worries. It is supposed to be really good and I do want to start it.

Hi! I am looking forward to it as well. I requested it from my library and I'm hoping it comes in tomorrow (it's in transit). I'll figure it out.

Sounds good!

Just checking in. I finished my audiobook and made me realize that we hadn't decided yet.

Hope you are all well and enjoying whatever reading challenges you are working on!

I would be happy with any of these and I chose the last book. I can get copies of One for the Blackbird.. or Erotic Stories from the library but it will take a few days since they have to transport to my location. If you want earlier or We Ride that is fine too and I can get a copy.

I like the 3. Definitely check with Laura.

Interesting list. And funny on the listed twice, didn't mean to. I will read them all.

Let me know what you decide.

What do you want to read next?

I have these waiting:
and

I'm also up for something else.

Wanted to share. I used to go to the Decatur Book Festival every year when we lived in Atlanta. I miss it so much and haven't found anything like it elsewhere. This year it is virtual. Thought you might be interested in seeing what authors are presenting.

Never mind about the Hannah comment, I misread it. At the end of chapter 19 Katie is leaving Reinhardt's and he says 'Good night, Hannah'. For some reason I thought it was Dan calling her by the wrong name. It makes so much more sense now.

Oh, the duffle bag. Hmmm. No, I don't think it was explained. I assumed he was considering running away. Honestly, I wasn't sure they were going to find the Durants at home. I was thinking that they would escape either through some method they didn't share or by stupidly leaving and getting lost in the woods. I don't remember it being revisited. I can imagine that they had things they didn't want to share though. I get them losing it but wow that was extreme.
