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

I've also been waiting impatiently for season 2 of a Discovery of Witches. Apparently it's on the way, but we don't have an air date yet.

True, true

The nice thing about ebook deals is they don't sit in piles around your office judging you for..."

I've heard so much praise for the Night Circus at this point that I'm afraid to start it...

Oh yes, my kindle is so full of unread books that sometimes I'm afraid to even open it, LOL
But again so are my physical shelves... Second-hand bookstores are my undoing... Why am I doing this to myself?

I really need to read His Dark Materials. I have a colleague who keeps pestering me about it. That and the Night Circus. lol.

It looks red to me

I'm really a mood reader too. That's why I haven't planned much, either.
has been on my TBR for a long time now. I wanted to finish the Anita Blake series before jumping into another Laurell K Hamilton series, but in the end, why wait? Maybe this challenge is the perfect excuse to finally give it a try.

I think Dry he wrote with his son."

You are right, Judith. Thank you for correcting me :)

Oh I get it now. Sorry, I misunderstood a bit ;)
Yes, sometimes I don't get why there's such a big difference in pages between the physical book and the kindle. Just, why?

I've read during the last team challenge. I believe Shusterman wrote it with his brother. I liked it a lot. Not quite a 5 star, but still a good 4 star for me.

Lol, I get it. I've done it a couple of times too. It's just so heavy, haha. And it's so difficult to not crack the spine when they are so massive! Also it's just too big to take with you when you leave the house.

Good choice !
I haven't read Scythe, but people have been hyping it so much it's scary. lol You'll have to tell me what you think of it, and maybe I'll give it a try.

It's a very good series. And very very populat too. Bu you probably already know that. I've only read 2 of them, but liked them a lot at the time. It's been a while now however, so I need a little refresher before continuing.

I can't wait for this challenge to start !!
I think I'll start with a reread of , to start of with a Lust Sin Bingo ;)

Good luck Sonia ! I'm sure you'll do great at this exam!!

You guys are so good at planning ahead ! I'm just such a mood reader. It's hard for me to stick to a reading plan. You can be sure that if I plan to read one book, I'll start reading everything else before that... haha

Hey guys ! I'm so excited about this group challenge :) It's gonna be fun !

@Judith, I can access the Tracking Spreadsheet just fine. No problem on my part


Also, here is my Team Tower shelf: Challenge-TeamTowerVII

Saw this and had to share. Penguin Random House had a penguin "intern" and it's the cutest thing. Branding done right."
