I moved M's Lost Boy: The True Story of Captain Hook to Line 22 on the Spreadsheet to replace the L I won't get to."



Thank you! I thought I accidently deleted it.

35559 It is is foggy and pouring rain outside. My cat is laying by my fireplace. I have a pot of good tea and some cookies. I am going to curl up under a blanket and read for the afternoon. Hope everyone is having a good day.

35559 I have a bunch of "U" books covered. I love Umberto Eco and will dive back into his works with no problem. If someone is looking for an interesting one with a 'U' may I suggest The Witches of Eastwick by John Updike, it is around 350 pages.

35559 I would like to read this book
The Wolf Den
Would the lyre (hand harp) count as an instrument or does it specifically need to be one on the list?

35559 I have been offline the last few days with the flu. I have been reading a bunch and I will find places that the books fit.

M I can throw my name in too as long as you are OK with doing DQs if I get drawn. I'm on the list, but I w..."


I might need to back out of BOM. I have looked at my class load starting next week and I am going to be swamped. I can answer questions but I don't know if I will have the mental facilities to come up with them.

35559 I found a black cover on my shelf for next round. It is a CHONK. I didn't know I had a 1006 page copy of Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell. It will be a good read for Halloween.

35559 I am so happy that tomorrow I will be taking my final for Pharmacology. This course has been rough but I think I am doing well. Next classes are a lot less intense so I will be adding a few more books to the spread sheet this weekend.

Are we good for purple covers/instruments found? Is there anything we need that I should try to find?

35559 Have a great weekend everyone. It is Thanksgiving here in Canada, so I will be traveling quite a bit. Nothing like a long train trip to read some books.

35559 I have quite a few on my pile for the challenge.

If it is acceptable I am just going to plop them into the spread sheet, read all week, and then update on the Friday. I usually read on my commute and am running all week.

35559 Well, I should have my TRB for the entire challenge done soon. There is a local bookshop that is having a 50% off anniversary sale. I think I will take my rolling grocery cart and a backpack.

35559 Hello, sorry I am late to the party. I am M, from beautiful Vancouver BC.

I am the loyal minion of a glorious void cat. (he told me to type that). I have been pretty busy with going back to school, and my brain is usually completely mush by the end of the week. I love most classical music but I am mostly a metal head.

I have been in multiple wheel challenges before. I mainly read sci-fi, fantasy, and historical fiction. Recently I have been poking my nose into cozy mysteries.

This is my shelf. https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...
