Tamika, did you, by any chance, listen to the audiobook for Widdershins ?

Oh, nevermind !
It looks fine now !
Phew, I was both happy and weirded out for a moment !

BTW, I am not on my computer and iPad doesnt necessarily support it well, so I might not be looking at it right, but the spreadsheet looks wonky but interesting.

It is showing me that we have used up ALL the books we have read so far ? Is that true ?

It doesnt make sense though.. coz that wasnt the case the last time I saw, which was earlier in the morning.. and we havent knocked off 10-15 goals in the day.. unless I have gone bananas and cant see anything straight ! :P

It doesnt have to be read as an audiobook.
Just that the audiobook of that particular book needs to be read by the author itself.

I am gleaming ! Yaaaay !
Ducky will be the first GoodReads friend I am going to meet.. whoopieeee ! :D

I am here atleast for 6 months as of now.. it may reduce based on how quickly and smoothly (yeah, right !) the project goes or longer than that, if it drags.

I was in Pennsylvania, T. The gorgeous Lancaster, PA to be specific.. but I finished with my project there, so moved over to Ann Arbor, MI for the next one.

So basically, its like a colorful spectrum for me.. from the brown lands of Texas, to the lush greens of Pennsylvania to now the lovely whites of Michigan ! ;)

Noo ! I want something REALLY good as a follow up to Winter. That was my next.
Dont say that !!
Boo Hoo !

Ann Arbor !!
Dont tell me, you are somewhere around ?! *squeals*

If Amazon or Google Books has a preview option, then mostly the first page (atleast in most cases) can be viewed.

I will check all our unused books for the 'They' after I reach home in about 2 hours, if no one gets there before me.

Aww.. I love Orlando ! And I so get you for wanting to go to Disney every weekend.. I would love to do that as well. :D

.. rather I would tie it up with a quick trip to the Floridian beaches.. and ahhh, bliss !

*day-dream*
*looks out of the window*
*sees the bone-chilling Michigan cold*
*jolts back to reality*

Sorry for being a little MIA over the last couple of days.. new project, re-location, new everything, getting settled, and reading Winter (NOT at the rate and with the amount of time I want with it) has kept me tied up.

I can do the cookie goal (I just needed this reason to start a new series, Ducky's coaxing me will work), if I can find a library in this new alien (for me!) town.

I will pick the first one up as soon as possible (definitely in Dec) and then wrap up the first three and then probably we can start fourth onwards first thing next year.

Oh ! This is so cool.. More books to read !! :D

You know what, I want to start that (especially cozy of all the yummy titles). I had even got the first book from my library but then I got cold feet with all the books around.. Hehe.

Are you starting that or have you already read a few from the series ? If you are starting, I would love to buddy up.

You are way ahead from me on all the others so let's do the In Death series regularly as soon as you finish Book 3. *excited*

I wouldn't mind doing two a month to start with.

I tend to plan it in the way the book occur (although I was totally off this time)

So, it's Kinsey first (since it takes place in 1980s), Lindsay Boxer after than (as its present day) and then Eve Dallas (as that's 2050s).. Just to see how technology has progressed in each of them and how it features in solving the crimes for these ladies.

I add Stephanie somewhere in between for the comic relief.

So, I may get to the 4th of Kinsey after I finish the two BOMs in December.. Followed by the others.

You are all caught up on Stephanie, right ? How far along are you with Lindsay (Women's Murder Club), if you are at all reading it ?!

I can wait for you to finish the three books on the In Death series, assuming you haven't started or as many as you need to complete to get to book 4.

Ducky, I just finished the third in the Kinsey Millhone series.. Now I am all leveled up with Kinsey, Eve, Lindsay and Stephanie.. 3 each !

Next month will be the fourth for all four series.. Since I am doing them in parallel.

Cows are cute ! ;)

Sonia, I am doing both American Gods and Everything I Ever Told You.. Will get to it only after I finish Winter which is a chunkster and work is acting like an itch with a B.
