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

Yeah I figured MPG Nature would be the hardest. I might be able to find another one if needed

I've put myself down for 2 nature books that are 3.5 hrs on audio. Not many points for pages though

This book has been quite something, huh! One of those books that stays with you for a while. I found it as an audiobook, I'm not game enough yet...

Gefeliciteerd, Nous!!!
My dad has been telling me the temperatures weren't to his liking, he'll be happy with 24c. I hear you on the understaffed though. COVID and flu are rife here and I was the only clinician in the clinic on Wednesday and then most of my clients cancelled because they were sick. Urgh! I hate winter, would happily swap right now

Oh I would have actually put up my hand for that again. It was the gift that kept on giving last time LOL

I found it as an audiobook but it's 17 hrs long! With this latest update of yours, I'm not too sure if I am game enough.

Not available at my local libraries. Urgh, why are we in Oz always the last to get things...

Ok, you're actually selling this book to me now. I'm going to see if I can find a copy

What a relief! So happy to hear your good news

I'm hoping to have mine finished tomorrow. Listening to the audiobook at double speed. Great way to get through 13 hrs of an audiobook! :)

Has anyone on the team read it?"

I attempted it when I was in uni but couldn't get into it. I want to try again

IT IS BATTLE TIME!!!


GO GO GO!

Let's read our chosen titles! We have one week to do so! They need to be finished by 9am UTC on Saturday 29th June.

Happy reading everyone! :-)"

Thanks! I've started

Do we need to read in order or can we start even if we're later in the chain?

wow that's such an early start for a conference. I always enjoyed the part of the lazy hotel breakfast, then lazily walking over to the conference and in the evening, hanging in the bar with other conference goers. This doesn't sound relaxing...ehm..educational enough for me ;)

Have a safe flight back. Pack your winter wear in carry on, it's freezing!!

(for those not in Australia, overnight was the coldest night on record in my city of Melbourne. We had proper, crunchy frost, never happened before and the forecast is even colder tomorrow with actually going below 0C. It's big news, at least in Melbourne LOL).

Happy for Cass or Nous reading their book tho

I’d like to read One step too far

I have:
The one that got away

I was in another challenge before this and the group suggested the Anaheim library. You can become a member without even living in the country and their online catalogue is huge! I have been listening to audiobooks from there and my daughter has been reading ebooks. I can highly recommend

Wow what a great guy! Sweeting up the examiners, love it.
Broodje kroket, that's a blast from the past for me!! I haven't had those since I was a child. I ate them with lots of mustard. Oh you're making me hungry and I'm a vegetarian! LOL
