35559 Any one doing Daisy Jones & The Six I totally recommend the audio book. I rarely recommend audio book over the actual book or ePub, but this is amazing. Feels like a real documentary. And Judy Greer is Karen.


Lincoln in the Bardo and Ready Player One are the other two I fully support audio book versions over written word.

35559 Convert the time into page numbers. Like the whole book is 543 minutes. I break the chapters down into minutes. Put that number as a ratio over the total of 543, then multiply by the total number of pages to get your page. Book algebra. Cross multiplication.

35559 I have another shifter book in the series I'm reading. Should I save it in case we get UMBER a third time?? If not, I can read it to cover for anyone who has committed to reading a shifter book but doesn't want to.

35559 "He ejaculated all the time!" is by far the best quote of this Wheel-a-thon. Thank you for the great morning laugh, Jenny.

Nice! Where are you traveling?"


Virginia the last two days, then London the early part of next week.

35559 Finished my last book for the week. E with 402 pages. Traveling for work means plane hoping and more free time than I am used to.

I'll be getting in 4 books this week instead of the 3 I had planned, so I've got you covered. It's 400ish pages too.

35559 I can do more shifters. One of the books I read last time is the first in a series on KU.

35559 My first book is going so slowly. Ugh. It's been on my GR TBR list since 2015 and was excited when I found a copy, but it's just dragging on. Chasing Mona Lisa sounds like a perfect suspense title, but there is nothing remotely suspenseful about it. It's also labeled as Christian Fiction, which I'm usually really weary of, but there hasn't even been reference to praying before eating. I'm going to try to get it done today.

35559 I finished my first shifter book Inception
I won't be able to finish my other shifter book until tonight. Do we need any letters covered to complete a word? I need something to listen to at work today.

35559 So glad we aren't thinking about respining.
After Cutthroat, I'm worried about asking. If I were a Chaos Chipmunk, I'd make groups read only books that have a page number ending in 8. Or books by an author whose first and last names start with the same letter. Or books that were published before 1990. Or books with at least 5 even numbers in their ISBN code. Or at least 50% brown covers. Or only books other teams read for the last spin.

35559 I finished On The Come Up faster than I thought, so I found another shifter book on KU. Depending on how much time I’m actually at my desk today and tomorrow, I should get it done and maybe a last minute U book if we need one.

I didn't know Tom Hanks wrote a book."

Uncommon Type by Tom Hanks
All the stories are linked together by different typewriters. The characters are all similar to characters Hanks has played or you could see him playing.

Not hot here, just rainy and humid.
