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

Almost the end of the round. I have 1 more to finish.

Next round is going to be fun. I have the Game of Thrones Boxed set to work through.

I am a hoarder and I have a series of 6 with the MC named Xenophon. Bad this is they are about 300 pages each.

I can probably find something else in my sci-fi shelf

I hope you feel better soon Angela. The flu is no fun. I have fallen victim to the Audible sale, I now have enough books to keep me out of trouble for a while.
I am reading a lot but updates will be coming slowly over the next couple of weeks. The flooding in BC is very bad right now and I have a house full of people that have been evacuated.
Everyone stay warm, safe, and healthy

Hello my lovely teammates. Surgery went well and the doc said everything looks great. I am going to be in recovery until mid-December and not very active.
I plan on reading all the big books in my house. (not sorry at all). Have a lovely day and enjoy the fall weather for me.

Finished my last book for this round. I barely got any sleep but I love the series.
The Wheel of Time is out and the first 3 episodes can be watched with the last one coming out on Dec 24. I am goin to read the series before I binge it.

WOO HOO!!! Surgery date moved up! I get to check in Monday morning at 10. Then it is more couch and book time to recover.

Also, how was A Canticle for Liebowitz? I keep meaning to read that one, but I never have."

I am looking at another week. WooHoo!

I enjoyed Canticle. I read it years ago and it is much different to my adult eyes than as an angsty teen. It can be difficult to get through some parts but I always tell someone to try reading a book they are curious about. You never know if you will find a new favorite.

Last couple of days. I am cheering everyone on from my couch. I have 2 final books to complete. One will hit every letter so I will put it in the last column and let the captains decide where to put it.

I was scheduled to have surgery on Wednesday but BC has been dealing with massive rainstorms and flooding. It is about 270mm of rain in 24 hours. So I have been put on hold and given more pain meds.
I can wait since there was a massive landslide in the mountains that has people trapped. They need medical attention more than I do.

I finished all the books I signed up for an added 2 more to the SS. I guess breaking stuff is good for my reading time. I might add 1 more before the end of the round

Jenny wrote: "Aww. So sorry M. I'm glad you are home and recovering and that you have forgiven your cat.

Just read what you want to. And have chocolate. Lots of it."

Chocolate... that is medical advice I can follow.

Well I did it today. I tripped over my cat and re-broke my ankle. I am wearing my happy face (sarcasm).
So how many books do we need this round? Seeing as how I am off work for the next 2-3 weeks and surgery is pending I will have plenty of time to read a bunch of thicccc boys.

btw my cat did say he was sorry.

I think the movement of the book is part of the experience. I don't think it would read quite the same with out it.

Now I want to read it again.

I have read that one and I agree. It helped to sit at a table so I could just put the book down when I needed to turn it funny direction.

Good job everybody! Keep it up!!!

Those are so cute. I love the kitty cat.





The mini christmas stockings I have made so many of now, but I haven't had a chance to take a picture of all of ..."

I finished the book I added to the sheet last night and another one in the early hours of the morning. I am tapped out for this round and am going to bed.

I have always enjoyed that book. I read it to my nephew over the summer and he has become a little dragon crazy.

HAPPY FRIDAY!!!

OK, I have one 600 pg book that I can finish tonight. Luckily it can cover all letters. I am adding it to the sheet now. I might be able to read one more in the morning since the round ends at 2pm pacific time.

YES!!! I would love to buddy read for this or Good Omens!
