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

Good morning everyone, hope you all have a good weekend!

@Karsyn, I don't see the points added in the main spreadsheet for the book , which I read on 1/14. Could you check it please? Thanks!

Hi everyone, I've updated my shelf and our spreadsheet (thanks Karsyn for helping me out) and am now all up to date.
One of my books was 680 pages, so that category is covered if you still need it.

I'm going out of town tomorrow for nine days, so I might be late adding my books. I don't know how much Wifi I'll have available. I might be able to keep my shelf updated somewhat but I won't be able to update the spreadsheet from my phone. If I have limited Wifi or am MIA I'll update everything when I get back. :-)

Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!

@Kim - I asked a similiar question not too long ago and Karsyn checked with the Mods. They said I had to shelve each book separately even though I read a trilogy in one bundle volume, like you. So you probably need to shelve them individually too.

I won't be adding anything today :(

Just dropping in to say hi. I've been busy and crazy these past couple weeks. Reading is going well and my shelf is updated. Hope everyone has a good weekend!

I basically agree with Kim's thoughts.

Are the quest points all added at the end or as we complete sections? Just curious :)

I thought this too! I think it was originally a screenplay.

Hey Lisa, I hope you enjoy it! His writing is quirky too, definitely unique. Looking forward to your thoughts on it.

You'll find out but (view spoiler)[at the very end :) (hide spoiler)]

Finished The Rosie Project on Dec 7th, 305 pages + BR

finished (view spoiler)[ I found it insightful and some parts were endearing. Don was a lovely man. I had initially thought this book was going to be drama but it ended up being comedy, which was unexpected. I think I would've preferred a bit less comedy and more RL situations. I liked the ending and of course I'm happy Don and Rosie end up together. I also liked how the "mystery" was resolved. Although I enjoyed reading it, I don't plan to read the second book right away.

up to chapter 24 (view spoiler)[ I like how she takes the time to really know him and how he is happiest when he's with her. Lots of great moments in NYC. The ice cream test and the sushi bar scenes were special. (hide spoiler)]

@Justin and Catherine, hope you guys can grab it soon, it is fun :)

chapter 14 (view spoiler)[ he is so sweet, that scene where he's serving the drinks was fun. (hide spoiler)]

She is very unique, it'd be nice to get her POV too. Wonder what she thinks about him!

up to chapter 12 (view spoiler)[that first "date" with Rosie was unique. The lobster salad sounded really good, lol. I liked the part where he was talking to Rosie on the phone in the middle of class and his students cheered him. Not sure how Gene and Rosie knew each other, I don't think it was explained yet, really curious. Now they're working on the Father Project. Don seemes like a really nice guy (hide spoiler)]

Yeah, kinda weird. Looks like they have (view spoiler)[an open marriage (hide spoiler)]
