35559 Minx, you are a genius!!!!! Mwah!

I got the first one, but even that made my head hurt. Can you message them to the Mod account, and then delete your post, in case any other teams come creeping in?

35559 Whew thanks Minx. I've been trying but I'm hopeless as stuff like this.

35559 Finished Sleeping Giants by spending some well-needed time working on my jigsaw puzzle.

I'll get us a new bonus.

You know, that description sounds more familiar to me than I'd like to admit. I have a lot more reading "rules" and practices but I didn't list them all here, because they make me sound a bit nuts. LOL, I guess we're all in pretty good company here though, if we're willing to participate in this kind of crazy reading challenge.

Looks okay to me, too! I'm doing fine on my schedule, just one book that is due Friday and I'm sure I'll finish it working between books here and there. My other stuff is individual and ..."


I'm envious of you. My 'up-next' shelf is getting out of control. I used to keep it below 20 books but now it's sitting at 34 because I keep choosing books off my TBR that fit this challenge instead, lol. I don't mind too much because I've actually read some great books that I may not have gotten to anytime soon (or lets be real: ever) but that shelf is making me nervous.

35559 Wow we really got our bank down. Only 3 books left to be used on it!
Brahminy Kites (5791 new)
Sep 27, 2016 08:29AM

35559 Yes, definitely. It wasn't in the bank yet, so I forgot about it.

If we don't have a third one finished (I'm gonna double check the finished books) I'll claim the third book as there is a linguist in my audiobook Sleeping Giants who is hired for his superior intelligence. I'm more than halfway done.

35559 Ok then, is everyone ok with this chain:

The White City - (Bonita)
City of Bones (BB)
Bones Never Lie (Minx)
Lie With Me (Shannon)
Me, Inc... (Minx

35559 I think Bonita's banked book The Big Book of Sherlock Holmes Stories would work for this for sure.

35559 Yay, Minx! Let me get us a new bonus to work on!

Aww....I'm so sorry Jo..."


Thanks for the recommendations Becky, I'm definitely ready for some brain candy. A lot of stuff in this book hit me like a sledgehammer because of my past.

I'm way behind, have to catch up on all these posts!

35559 That's good thinking Becky.

These phrases are a bit tricky. I've searched a couple of other books I had previously started, but no luck finding any of them.

35559 This terminology could get tricky with these BONUS bonuses. LOL
