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

Lisa, I get the same way!! Well you never know I've heard some great things about the series so you might wanna read it one right after the other! :)

4 and the 5th is coming out this year

Yes, Lisa, that's the first book in the series :)

are we reading the whole series or just the first book?

This is great! I'm so excited that it's such a large group of people! :)

Wow this looks like a great challenge but I have soooo many series going on!! haha Maybe I need to just crack the whip and stick with one series and finish it! I'll have to think about joining.

Post Challenge Survey:

How many books did you read overall for this challenge?
68: 31 owned PB/HC (1 re-read owned), 3 e-books, 11 ARCs, 22 library books
How many of them were already owned? On your TBR list?
See above for how many were already owned, all were on my TBR shelf, but I did add some as I went along.
Did you create any bookshelves? If so, how many?
7
Did you remove any books from your TBR list while organizing your bookshelf? If so, how many?
At first I removed about 153 but then I've added some since then.
Did this challenge help you to organize your bookshelves or to your wheedle down your TBR?
It did help me, and I will continue to organize my books better. I'm hoping to wheedle down my TBR some more but right now I'm addicted to getting books out of the library! My next clean up challenge will be all books I own.

Lisarenee, my fiancee is the exact same way and it annoys the crap outta me because I feel like I'm nagging him when I tell him to turn it off!

I know I don't know why but I don't usually do the whole introduction thing but this seemed like fun. :)

haha thanks Sans, you make me feel better about my weirdness! :D

I was thinking of doing Grad school there but it's really expensive!

Haha you should try it, it's fun once you get into it :)
