Shannon, I think you don't have the date finished marked for this one. I was double checking and the spreadsheet isn't picking it up.

Well, I managed to get through
which took me much longer than the page count indicates, but my mind kept trying to leap off the page and escape.
Guardians of the Galaxy started out with a dance! We thought it was a lot of fun, but we are superhero movie fans.My weekend isn't that busy -- a cookout, a birthday dinner with my niece and extended family, and a special day with my nephew.

We are definitely pulling in your court book. For some reason your link goes to the Turkish edition of The Iron Trial -- maybe that's the most popular? The first English page I pull up has 295 pages, sadly. If you 'read' the audio that's what I'll go with.

I can't actually find my edition on goodreads, so I used one with an equivalent page count.
You just have to contribute to the discussion. Go Abir and Kristie!

Reading The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making and wondering if anyone knows any kids who read this? It's a kids book but I can't imagine liking it as a child.
I can't finish it until next week because it's for a real life book club that inches through books.

I'm looking forward to the BOM discussion!

Nicole, quick question -- can you verify the page count for Bound by Honor? The 283 page one seems to be in Portuguese, but you read the others in English. Just checking.
I finished a SF book and I was cranky because it's 496 pages -- so close! But actually it's fair because the last 100 pages is useless garbage about imaginary space ship configurations and I skimmed those and would be hard put to remember a single word. The story was about 400 pages.The thing is some people must be really into that for them to include it, and I just can't imagine! Just fly the ships about and don't tell me how many meters the fuzznozzle needs to be.
We are on page 3 of the Books Read thread! Go us!So they don't get lost, here are the current blips:
Vanessa: Court of Thorns not on your tower shelf.
Claire: Not a blip, but did you just switch languages while reading the Earthsea trilogy? That is so cool!
Thank goodness we opted for a separate Books Read thread. It makes it so much easier to check -- Audrey Jane does it as you read, and then I do a final sweep every 50 books or so. Go Team!
