Hey @Lexie - I'm done with #10 and #11.

I can't remember - can there be gaps between one series number and the next? I see you've got #17 claimed - do we need 13, 14, 15 and 16 for that to count?

I'm done with #10 and now I'll finish up #11 - I only have 10-15 more minutes to go with it.

Get some rest and feel better - I'm off to hunt for a short #10 right now. My #11 is almost done.

I'm so sorry you've got a migraine @Donna! Do you want me to pick up a #10 so you can take it easy today? I also get migraines and know what you mean. Sometime I take both Excedrin and ibuprofen (I know you aren't supposed to take them at the same time, but when a migraine is coming on the rules go out the window) and put a cold pack on the back of my neck, and take a nap and that will often help. If not, then I have maaxalt, but it makes me so tired!

I'm the opposite @Lexi - I wear my contacts most of the time and when I wear my glasses things look odd. I hope it doesn't take as long as they said to get your frames fixed!!

Oh no, Lexi!!! I hope you can get them fixed today!

Back at ya, @Donna. I'm done with #5

No worries @Donna - I'm in a virtual tax class right now for another 1-1/4 hours and then I have a few more hours on my #5 book after that. And of course I can pause if I get close and you aren't done yet.

I'm done with with #3 in the ladder - you're up @Donna.

FYI, the book I'm reading is #3 in a series (The Naked Marquis) - I should be able to finish it tonight or tomorrow morning if that works for the ladder. If not, no worries.

I've got 2 shorter books I need to read this week for another challenge. I can work on getting the 3k page book done this week and then I'll look for 500+ page books for the rest, although I'm not sure I'll be able to fit them into the series ladder (but I'll try.)

Donna wrote: "Sandy, are you still reading High Five for letter S? That would take priority over the pink letters."

Yes, and I'll definitely finish it. I usually listen to audiobooks during the day while doing other things around the house, and read on my kindle at night and early morning - that one's on my kindle.

I've finished my audio book and I'm going to start another. @Donna and @Lexi - do you want me to read for the pink spell-out letters (I think it's A, E and R left?)

I hope you're feeling better @Cait!

Nice @Donna and @Lexi!!!

I'm slowly making my way through that book (I'm only about 25% done). I like historical romance books, but the stories in this one do need some editing!!!

I've got an audiobook and a kindle book going on right now. As I finish them I'll see what letters we need and then choose my next books based on that

It looks like more letters are 'pinked' out - does that mean we aren't spelling out any more words?

Thanks and Lexi and Donna!! You guys rock!!!!

I'm done with my books. Let me know if I need to pick up something short to fill in anywhere. Otherwise, I'll start on next week!

I'm in the same boat, Sarah! I've been trying to find as many books that work for both challenges as possible.

I've claimed Silver with The Silver Ghost, but it also works for Car if you need to move things around.

I'll be able to do one and maybe two more books after I finish the two I'm currently working on. I'll wait to see what still needs to be done once I finish these.
