I'm not super into them, but they have been quick reads. It's like when I watch Full House on TV, it's okay but not my favorite. Haha But, I'm in the middle of another one now and the sme character is there. I just figured I would use the first book first.

Anyone have this in any of the books already completed?"
Yes! My second book, The Lying Game, has Becky!!
http://www.buzzfeed.com/ashleyperez/1...There are a few others. I've been meeting to read The Handmaids tale for a while, but I'm not sure if I can get that version.
I'm halfway into the book of the month, have working on The Lying Game series. Though the books around around 300 pages, we they pretty quick reads (I think it's because it's mostly dialogue and really basic diction). I lived through my exam this morning, so now I am on to reading again. Hoping to finish the BOM and next TLG on Saturday. Maybe sooner.
I just finished a book. There were multiple socialite characters, but I started this book before we got that goal so I'm not sure if it could count.
Well, I finished my second book. Now, I'm off to study for an exam.

I could read Tuck Everlasting in one night, it's only 130ish pages and is in the "Best Love Stories" but we wouldn't get many points for it (5).

I just finished my book a few minutes ago, so everything is ..."Oh wow! Thanks for doing all that. I was thinking of it as a magical update that happened at midnight or something. Haha
I love my audiobooks. I always listen when I'm at the gym or walking. But other than that, I like the real books.
Also, I got a book on audio. So I'm hoping to finish two books by Wednesday!
How often does our spreadsheet get updated?
Well guys, we are in 7th place. It's pretty good, the top third! I'm 100 pages into Pretty Girls. It's an upcoming book of the month. I've saved some thoughts along the way so I can post was I was thinking. I'm also hoping someone else starts early so I can chat about it. If not, I might need to collect on those points a couple days after I finish it.

I'm going to join, but just for the discussion on this one. I'm starting a little early. (:
In the name of getting more points, I have decided to go for a book of the month instead. (:Any ideas how we can work on getting some of the goals done?
Also, is everyone have a fun/restful/enjoyable weekend?
Okay, I finished my first book this morning. Now I'm on to a second. I have a few shorties that are 170 pages, I can read them pretty quickly. But, I also want to read The Lying Game so I'm a little indecisive.
Oh no, James. It's no fun to power through books you don't like. Good luck on the next one!
I saw it too, post 7. (:As for number of books, I'm hoping for 3 a week but it might be more like 2. Being a good student is my first priority.
I will probably do better as time goes, I took a speed reading course a couple of years ago. I'm somewhat out of practice, but the more I read, the closers get to my highest word per minute.
I'm excited for it to start! I am on the wait list for Six of Crows, and my name is coming up! I'm really excited to read it!

I'm heading to class. I got out a little early today and the train is much less crowded. I have put all reading on hold. I'm getting my studying done for next week, a paper written and some chapters read. I'm hoping to have it all done so I can just read a bunch this weekend!!
