35559 I'm currently in the middle of exams so I don't have too much time, but I do intend to spend a lot of my procrastinating time continuing my reread of The Name of the Wind (The Kingkiller Chronicle, #1) by Patrick Rothfuss
I'm glad to see that I'm enjoying it as much as I did the first time.

Definitely in a fantasy mood right now. After The Name of the Wind I'll probably start The Return of the King (The Lord of the Rings, #3) by J.R.R. Tolkien or Ruin (The Faithful and the Fallen, #3) by John Gwynne

35559 All the BOMs sound good to me, except I'm not sure I want to start another series just now, so the Dark Tower is debatable.

I've been listening to Carrie Fisher's audiobooks and I also finally started Gemina. Should finish something pretty soon. :)

Have a good weekend guys!

35559 I just finished an audiobook, and I have one more short book to finish. I think I'll make it before the challenge starts! :)

35559 Hey everyone!

Maria Helena - I totally understand, I usually just pick whatever book I feel like too, at the moment I'm just kind of enjoying reading completely random books and finally getting to some books I've owned for forever.

Megan - Hey! Computer Forensics sounds really interesting. What kind of work do you do exactly? And what games have you been playing lately?

Melanie - I started playing Overwatch about a month ago and I've been spending quite a bit of time playing it. :D It's really fun. You should play more, practise always helps!

As to my favourite reads of 2016...
Illuminae (The Illuminae Files, #1) by Amie Kaufman Saga, Vol. 1 by Brian K. Vaughan All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi Malice (The Faithful and the Fallen, #1) by John Gwynne

35559 Hey guys!

I'm Britta, I'm from Estonia and I'm studying IT at university.

My favourite genres are probably fantasy and classics. Lately I've been using a random number generator to pick from books I haven't read and own/have borrowed, so right now I'm actively reading A Vindication of the Rights of Woman and I'm also still in the middle of House of Leaves. I'll try to finish them before May!

Other than reading I play a lot of computer games (lately Overwatch) and procrastinate.

I also really love our group name!

My shelf is here.

35559 I just finished Wyrd Sisters and technically Verence loses all of his senses, because he dies and becomes a ghost. That might be reaching a bit though :D

35559 I got A Monster Calls today so I accidentally read it. :D It fits for the horror goal too.

Read a book with the main genre (listed on the first page on GR) as Horror

Used A Monster Calls.

Read a book with an animal on the cover.

Used The Horse and His Boy.

Read a book where someone discovers an infidelity on someone’s part

We must a few of those, but it's kind of hard to tell at a glance. Any suggestions?

35559 Just finished A Man Called Ove which fits perfectly for the neighbours goal.

Read a book with a Poker hand in title (e.g. Straight, Flush, Full House, Pair)

Couldn't find anything for the new goal. That could be a tricky one.

PS. Sorry I've been quiet. I had exams and I kind of fell out of habit of writing here. I've always been keeping up with the thread though. :)
