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

I will finish Outside Looking In before deadline today - will update as soon as possible

Hopefully will finish both books I still have on week 2 SS tomorrow. I've a 2.5 hour boat trip so I'm sure I will. Less than 50 pages left in The Spanish Promise & I'm making good progress with Outside Looking In, going to read more of it tonight

Vikki- glad you were able to pick it up eventually! I haven't used one before, will ..."

Practicality wise it should be ok with young kids - I've a friend who is regularly in her family motorhome and her kids are 1 and almost 3. You get lots of different layouts so it's a case of working out which works best for your needs

Sophie - we've had a motorhome since 2015. We were meant to trade in our last one & collect this one in March but lockdown was announced the evening before we were due to go over to England for it. We finally managed to get over this week! Dunno if you've ever used one before but they're great, I'd recommend it. We hired one the year before we bought our first which is a good idea to see if it's for you or not.

Thanks - just double checking as I'm travelling back home on Friday, but should be home around 7pm. If not I can update SS ok from my iPad or phone.

I'm reading 2 at the moment, 1 isn't listed on the SS, but it will work for the S that The Spanish Promise is listed for. I'll try to get both finished if possible. Haven't got as much reading done as I expected to - thought I'd do more with being away this week. (We got our new motorhome yesterday - yay!) But I've been spending more time on a game so I can reach another maximum level before my fiance. I'm very competitive... lol

Is it 8pm for final updates on Friday?

3rd book finished & updated on SS

I''m hoping to finish my 3rd book tonight which works for a tag (mermaid)
I'm going to be away from tomorrow until Friday so may not be posting much. I will have my laptop as will have some work to do. I'll be continuing to read and will keep spreadsheet updated as I finish books.

Second book (Norse Mythology) finished & updated on spreadsheet

I’ll be finishing my second book (Norse Mythology) tomorrow.

Hoping to finish my first round 2 book tonight, if not, I'll definitely finish tomorow.
My favourite from round 1 was The Beekeeper Of Aleppo.

Well done so far everyone :) 3rd is a great result for week 1, especially with so many tricky letters.

Thought so, but no harm checking. I'm all done with books for round 1. Starting my first round 2 book today

I finished a book last night but I don't think it will count for the challenge as a kids book and I couldn't find anything on the AR Bookfinder website. But if you want to check it out, it was:
Rivals of the Chalet School

Found a book in my to-read list that has underwater as a tag so added it to SS.

can 2 people read the same book? I've also had my eye on Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman as I've been doing an online diploma on this mythology

I've also added the task for the book I finished today - thought I had already included it.

I’ve added a Z book I know I’ll finish on time

I’ve just finished a U book. Not sure if I’ll get a Q book I’d planned read by deadline, especially as I’m not feeling so inspired for it at the moment. Are we doing ok with Q books?

I’ve a short (200 pages) U book on my kindle, I’ll start it tonight. Feel more in the mood for something lighter than the Q book at the moment
