Finished

I finished

I'm off to work and very jealous of all you people preparing for bed. Good night everyone.

You're lucky you can read in the car. I read on the bus all the time, but something about the car makes me feel too nauseated.

I'll take 301-350 in bonus and read 304 pages. And the 551-600 spot with 592 pages.

Possibly I can read one more besides these. Assuming the bonus round is opened up tomorrow. If its any later though, I will have to reconsider and maybe read books to bank instead.

Wow. Ok yes, I can see why the book may not have been for you. Your dad sounds amazing.

Finished Forgive Me, Leonard Peacock for banked books.

I just found out recently that you can completely turn off autocorrect. I always had it correcting stuff I didn't want it to and it drove me crazy so I did. Now, of course, I have to capitalize my own "I" and add my own apostrophe to "don't", "can't" etc though. If you go to settings-->general-->keyboards you'll find a switch to toggle for auto-correction.

LOL it even got you spelling "letters" the french way: lettres.. Gave me a chuckle

There are so many they are probably reproducing. My personal goal is not to have more books on my "to-read" than on my "read" shelf, but I add way more than I read, so that won't last forever.

For those that do not currently have easy access to the spreadsheet, here are the slots that are left to claim for the Page Jumping Bonus rounds:

Heat Three - 2 spaces left:

I'm having trouble deciding how many books to claim. Hopefully we can open up bonus soon so I can make my decision.

Finished

I LOVE THIS BOOK! So good.

Go Margaret go! :)

Whoohoo more planning! Love this part.

So does that mean you're not going to continue the series Becky? Lol

Can we start the page jumping bonus now? I want to read and its 368 pages"

Just need you to put Riders on your Wobble shelf :)

Yeah, for me part of the fun is looking at how other teams interact, but if they want to be in their own little world, I suppose they're free to do so. There are plenty of other teams to stalk visit.

Looks like anyone who has over 645 points for Olympics would be on Bonus Round, so just those two teams. Dholes is doing everything secret so I can't see anything for them, but the Sabretooths opened up their Bonus yesterday afternoon.

Hopefully we can manage tomorrow.

Dholes and Snarling Sabretooths have the most points for Olympics (over 700 points each) so they probably started Bonus. Don't know what the minimum points to get there are.

Who me? :O
