Christmas book with angst and conflict"

Hah!"

Looks good, Lol

My vote for the Holiday Mini is Christmas.

I'm finished for Round 1.

Is anyone interested in reading Divergent at some point during this challenge? That's the only book that will fit (if we keep the current books in the 2nd BOM Title Square..."

I'm willing to read Divergent. I've never read it.

I'll finish my last books in the morning so I can use them for Turf Wars.

Halloween is my favorite but all of the suggestions look good.

I’m currently reading one with a Z and will finish today. I’ll add it in a little while.

Got a 5-star recommendation. I just finished Wrong Place Wrong Time and thoroughly enjoyed it. Mystery/thriller and time travel.

Starting my first book!

Emma was my least favorite of Austen's too. I read The Odyssey several years ago and have been thinking about a reread. I've had The Iliad on my TBR forever and really need to read it.

I've been reading his Chronicles of Barsetshire series (6 books) and have enjoyed them. They are for the most part feel good stories - characters you love and root for and others that you want to see get taken down a peg. Pretty true to human nature, I think. I hope to get #6 in this round.

The shelf in Msg 3 is wrong for me also. Correct one is

Hi! I'm Jackie and live in North Carolina. I'm retired so am free to read as much as I like and since I'm addicted to challenges, that's a good thing. Lol. I've played Wheels several times and always enjoy the challenge. I'll read almost anything but fantasy, mystery, horror, and science fiction are my favorites. My least favorite genre is romance. Looking forward to reading with you all.

I'm finished. Thanks, all, for a fun challenge and especially to Tammie for captaining. I enjoyed reading with you all. :)

Tammie, it looks like my book Sacrifice is on the spreadsheet twice. It looks like the second listing was added recently because my total for Month 2 just increased by 1, putting me over the cap.

South Africa is complete.

I've got one for South African author. I'll get started on it now.

Well, bummer. Last place unless we can make a big push. Either way I've enjoyed the challenge and being on this team.

I've been waiting on My Friends from the library but it's still not available so I probably won't make that one.
