Thanks.
I was hoping it started earlier in the weekend for me but also 5pm. Will this be the same time for when our first week word ends and the second starts?
I thought that was probably going to be the case, but good to know for sure that all my current books don't count.
Hi Everyone. It looks like I'll need to do a little catching up and read the rules again. I saw that the date finished is what matters most here. Does that mean that if I'm reading a book now but don't finish it until the challenge starts it will count? I have eight books in progress currently and don't think I'll finish them all before this starts.
It was great playing TT with everyone. I think we did great there at the end. I'm still working on finishing all the books I started but didn't finish during both TT and Uno. By October I should be recovered and ready for another challenge. I was thinking about doing novel writing month so might want to clear November of all obligations. The two title story openings I wrote reminded me how much I enjoy writing as well as reading. I've been doing a lot of reading and very little writing. E will you be participating this year?
I think we did amazing. It was great playing with everyone.
Glad we are finished with all the tasks. I've got two books I should finish up tomorrow. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with myself now TT is ending. I think I might need a break from challenges though. I know I'm going to miss discovering new books through it though. I've read a few books I wouldn't have without the challenge and really enjoyed reading outside my zone.
I realized that my audiobook
had a nice southern drawl and when I speed it up it sounds almost normal. I'm moving much faster through it now. Still better to use it for additional pages rather than the bottle on the cover task, and have all the tasks done so we don't have to think about it. Did we get all the letters we need for characters?

Teacher as a main character. Tengo Kawana is a math teacher at a cram school.
I don't think I will be able to finish the audiobook I started with a bottle on the cover. And not sure who else had and if the will be able to finish.
I've finished my book with a teacher as a main character. I'll get a completion post up tomorrow.
When we get an update on characters if we still need U, my book which is being used for the task main character as a teacher has a U character. I know that can be difficult to find at times.
I'll start The Cherry Cola Book Club by Ashton Lee. It is 8 hours and hope I can finish it. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
Yes, I trust the friend who didn't like the Vintage Caper. If someone else has a bottle go for it. If the shorter with the cover missing can be fixed I'll listen to that one.
I went through all of the available audiobook from my online library last night and those where the shortest options. There weren't a lot to pick from. There is a six hour option but I wasn't sure I could finish it. Also, heard from a friend it wasn't that good.
I'm guessing my earlier post for the two books with a bottle on the cover got missed. I'm on phone or I would link books again. I'm not sure if either will work. Can someone let me know if they would?
I've found two short options for audiobooks with a bottle on the cover. I'd prefer to listen to
but I'm not sure if this cover will work. If it doesn't I can listen to Thirst. However, this book doesn't seem to have the correct edition on Goodreads. Here is the link for the cover I would listen to: https://www.amazon.com/Thirst/dp/B009...Let me know what you think.

Book 4 Task 4.2 Treasure in title.
I should finish up Treasure today or tomorrow. I'm looking for an audiobook that has a bottle on the cover that is short.
I'm working on my book with a teacher in it. It is a long one so it is taking a good bit of time.
