35559 Just to make things more complicated (though I keep telling myself that it is practical), I have 2 TBR lists on GR.

On the "classic" one I have the books (I think) I want to read, on the other I have the books I already own (of course there are overlaps) ... and of course there are my audible/kobo wishlists which I'm trying to synch with the 2 GR lists.. when I remember ... 🤣

It's a very happy mess.

I love the "Cleanig up your TBR" challenge in this Group b/c it helps me to maintain the happy illusion that I'm in controll of my TBR. Trouble is that when other people post about their books there, I seem to find more books I may be interested in... and of course I haven't mentioned these challenges. 🤭

35559 We are allowed to use all books we finished since 20 May and that haven't been used for a previous cheese spell-out.

Again, asking everyone when adding/finishing books to indicate letters that could work for possible spell-outs, with special attention to difficult letters: U, X, Y, Z, I, O.

Thank you. 😊

35559 OOOhhhh, new cheese incoming. 🧀🐭🪤

I'll have a look, but as we can use books read since 20 May, we can cross off a few letters already.

Apologies, I didn't notice I listed it twice by mistake, one is removed now.

I didn't want to push it...

In that case, just eat a reasonably priced egg, Sammy.

35559 Non-fiction "characters" are tricky, but in this instance, as the title clearly refers to cycling, it can be accepted I think.

Also, sounds really interesting, will wait for your opinion, Andy. 😊
