Sorry I'm the one holding things up. I'll have mine done by this weekend.

Spillover: Animal Infections and the Next Human Pandemic by David Quammen
Ebola, SARS, Hendra, AIDS, and countless other deadly viruses all have one thing in common: the bugs that transmit these diseases all originate in wild animals and pass to humans by a process called spillover. In this gripping account, David Quammen takes the reader along on this astonishing quest to learn how, where from, and why these diseases emerge and asks the terrifying question: What might the next big one be?
Gone by Michael Grant
In the blink of an eye, everyone disappears. Gone. Except for the young.
There are teens, but not one single adult. Just as suddenly, there are no phones, no internet, no television. No way to get help. And no way to figure out what's happened.
Hunger threatens. Bullies rule. A sinister creature lurks. Animals are mutating. And the teens themselves are changing, developing new talents—unimaginable, dangerous, deadly powers—that grow stronger by the day. It's a terrifying new world. Sides are being chosen, a fight is shaping up. Townies against rich kids. Bullies against the weak. Powerful against powerless. And time is running out: On your 15th birthday, you disappear just like everyone else...

I'm good with my day!
I found a lot of tagged books on my upcoming reads so I think we're good.
I just found out that the BOTM Spin the Dawn is tagged desert 1x, so that would get lots of points for those of you wanting to read that book!
So, looks like we have two books tagged Africa and one Tiger. I'll do a search and see what I can find. Hopefully something on my currently reading or reading this week list!
I have a few U books lined up too. How are we doing on finding the tags? Do I need to search for some?
