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

Im in for the reading! Can do back up DQs for Gilderoy Lockhart.

Im going to head to the library today and see if I can get it.

I finished stillhouse lake! I'm on my phone so I'll post the completion tomorrow. Now I'm moving on to Rick Riordans Magnus Chase and the Ship of the Dead.

I started!

When we post our books in the books read thread, what info did we decide on including?

I KNEW there was a reason I'd heard of Xe Sands! I'm freaking reading an audiobook she narrated right now!

I started it before Towers so it won't count *BIG TEARS*

That works for me!

I don't think I'm going to start Kate Daniels for this challenge either. I will do the HP, Rosina, I'm going to read once we can start reading for Towers; it's a BOTM in another group I'm in! Looking forward to it! Rachel Caine is a compelling writer. I also have some other thrillers on my TBR, and for another challenge. Should be a fun start!

I've heard of Xe Sands so I'll keep an eye out. It's almost 7am for me the California girl so I'll request access to the spreadsheet when I get to work.

Looking forward to this friends! It looks like we have a large team so it'll be fun getting to know all of you!

Anybody have a favorite/5 star book they read during April or May to recommend? Just out of curiosity. But we all know curiosity killed the cat so I might die from book suggestion overload? Hehehe.

I voted for June BOMs. I want to read the Lilac Girls but couldn't muster up interest when it started.

I'm going to try to finish my Lillian Boxfish book before Towers starts and then I'll be set to start on some other ones!

I want to read a BR with you guys! I'll try Not That I Could Tell

My shelf:

Towers2018

I might read it with you E2.

I'll join for this one too! (Team Gilderoy Lockhart) When are we starting?

Apoorv, I second the motion

Wow I'm gone for 24 hours and have 2 full pages of comments to catch up on!

Hi I'm MelanieJoy, aka Mel or Melanie. (I was on a challenge with another Melanie so I added the Joy, but it looks like on this team you can call me whatever you like! I'm fond of nicknames!

It's been a long time since I read the HP series and I read each of them only 1 time, so I don't have a favorite Lockhart moment. During the re-reads that might change, as I plan on re-reading them!

I'll have to check out books you've recommended. I was not a fan of the Fever series. It wrecked me!! I tried to handle all of the darkness but it kind of overwhelmed me and made me feel funky in RL so I had to stop after book 5.

I'm currently reading Lillian Boxfish Takes a Walk. Brilliantly written! I'm really enjoying it.

I participated in Wobble 2 years ago as my first team challenge with our fellow teammate Karen, but other than her, all of you are new to me! I've done Towers last year and one UNO challenge, so I'm sort of familiar with how these go, but honestly I mostly just chat and read. Sometimes I help with strategy but not consistently, haha.

This is going to be fun!

I got Griffindor for this one but I've gotten Ravenclaw for the other one.

My patronus is a Nebeline Cat but I want a do over because I answered one question wrong and missed another one. I couldn't stay in my happy place lol.

I like my wand though.

Looking forward to this adventure!

Also someone posted how much they miss wobble. I miss my teammates and the camaraderie but NOT wobble itself, haha. That thing kicked my booty and it was my first team challenge ever!
